“I don’t know,” she responded in the video below when asked why she nicknamed the 2-year-old child “Papa Bear.” “I’ve always been a nickname person. I give everyone I love these nicknames, normally. He actually had a couple nicknames. His first nickname while he was in my stomach was ‘Bubba.’ When he came out, it just transformed into ‘Papa Bear.’ I can’t explain it, but when I look at him that’s what I thought.”
Nicki then agreed to give a hint about what her son’s name is. She did so by poking her lips out and rolling her eyes around.
