Cardi B and Offset's baby boy Wave Set Cephus can thank his rapper father for his super cool first name.
Sources connected tell TMZ ... the Migos rapper was the one who came up with the name Wave.
Once Cardi and Offset knew they were having a boy, we're told they started throwing around words and names for their first son ... and when Offset suggested Wave, both parents loved it.
The middle name is a much different story.
Our sources say Cardi and Offset spent much longer figuring that out ... originally toying with Marley ... a play on Cardi's middle name, Marlenis.
We're told Cardi didn't like Wave Marley Cephus -- it just didn't have the right ring -- and when the kid was born Sept. 4 and his parents saw him for the first time, Cardi and Offset decided to go with Set.
So, both names are courtesy of Offset. Most of Offset's friends call him Set.
As we reported ... Cardi B and Offset waited nearly 8 months to reveal the boy's name and post the first pic.
We're told Cardi and Offset took their time because they get a ton of negativity on social media, especially toward their kids. They waited for the perfect occasion -- their Essence cover shoot.
Wave Set is an awesome name ... and the kid’s already ice-cold because his parents hit up celeb jeweler, Elliot Eliantte, and got him 2 Diamond studs, 3 tennis chains and a custom wave charm with a Miami link chain worth nearly $200k.

Kim, Khloe Kardashian VIP Treatment at the Mouse House!!!
Kim and Khloe Kardashian took their kids to Disneyland this week, and it highlighted the difficulty of being one of the most famous families on earth.
The Kardashians plunked down at least $3K for VIP access ... something that's available to everyone. For them, it's kinda a necessity, since they would be overwhelmed by fans if they stood in line and the trip would be a disaster for the kids.
Some fans were pissed when Disneyland staff shut down the teacup ride ... you see the brood in 3 of the teacups while the others remain empty, and that didn't sit well with some folks waiting in line. We're told the Kardashians didn't request that the ride be shut down to other guests ... Disneyland staff just did it. They did not shut down other rides for the fam.
Waiting for your permission to load the Instagram Media.
This was True's first trip to the happiest place on earth, and we know that because Khloe apologized for photoshopping a prior pic -- taken last October -- to cover Stormi's face. Khloe confessed, and all is good.
Chrissy Teigen took a trip Thursday with her fam to the Mouse House, celebrating her daughter Luna's birthday ... Chrissy seemed to have a blast, but looks like Luna is gripping on for dear life on Splash Mountain.

The proud parents both posted pics Thursday of their little bundle of joy, already iced out in Cuban link chains ... with Offset revealing the unique name in the caption.
Cardi posted a different shot of her son ... wearing a baby blue puffy jacket, and you can see Wave Set has a huge iced-out pendant hanging off those Cuban links.
Don't worry ... he'll grow into it.
For the big reveal, the proud parents gathered the whole fam for an Essence photoshoot.
Remember, Cardi gave birth to WS back on Sept. 4, but she and Offset kept the kid's name as secret as the White House nuclear codes.
Back in October, we got Cardi at LAX ... and while talking to us about Offset's upcoming birthday she almost slipped and dropped Wave Set's name. Almost!!!
This is the second child for Cardi and Offset, and his big sister Kulture is now 3-years-old.
Offset also has 3 other children from previous relationships ... 11-year-old son Jordan, 6-year-old son Kody and 6-year-old daughter Kalea.
Apologies to everyone else in the Offset and Cardi's household, but Wave Set might have the coolest name in the fam. Maybe the whole country!

Missing Autistic Teen Found Safe In Utah, After 2-year Search
A missing California teenager with autism remarkably has been found safe in Utah ... after his family has been on a two-year search.
19-year-old Connerjack Oswalt went missing from Northern California when he was 16 ... and his family has been searching for him ever since.
Park City locals spotted him pushing a shopping cart around the area recently and deputies have encountered him, but say he never showed signs of aggression or criminal behavior.
Cops then got a hot tip Connerjack was sleeping outside of a store in Summit County, Utah last week and they beelined it for the area on a hunch. Authorities say they found him cold and shivering.
Apparently, Connerjack did not tell officers his name and they were only able to identify him with the help of a finger scan. The scan linked him to a warrant out of Nevada ... so authorities continued to investigate, figuring there was more to the story.
Police were able to warm him up in the car and search for his name in the Missing and Exploited children database ... lo and behold they found the listing for him.
Connerjack has been reunited with his family.

Prince Harry & Meghan Markle Meet with Queen, Prince Charles ... 1st Return to London Together

Exclusive Details

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are making a layover in London -- their first time returning to the royal fam's home turf together in about 2 years, and it's led to an unexpected reunion with family ... TMZ has learned.
Multiple sources tell us Meghan and Harry flew from L.A. to London Tuesday night, first class on a commercial flight ... with security shadowing at all times. We're told their plan was to enjoy a lowkey visit this week in London before heading to the Netherlands for Saturday's start of the Invictus Games.
But, the big shocker about this trip is ... we're told they've had a meeting with Queen Elizabeth and Prince Charles in what's clearly an attempt to smooth things over since they stepped down as senior members of the royals in 2020.
The timing of the meeting makes sense. The Queen, who's now 95, has been having health issues ... especially with her mobility. The Palace just announced she won't be attending Easter Sunday services at St. George's Chapel in Windsor Castle.
While Prince Harry's visited the UK a few times -- including last summer for the unveiling of a Princess Diana memorial -- he hasn't been back with Meghan since the so-called "Megxit" in 2020, and their bombshell Oprah interview.
The face-to-face meeting with Harry's father and grandmother is their first attempt in-person at making peace.
We're told the couple's children, Archie and Lilibet, are not with them on this trip -- so the the Queen won't get to see them. You'll recall, Prince Harry made it clear he didn't feel safe bringing the kids to the UK since they wouldn't have the same protection they had when they were senior royals.

After Olivia was forced to wear BF Christian McCaffrey's hoodie, her sister Aurora pointed out another passenger who was wearing a similar top, but wasn't asked to cover up.
While Olivia was able to bundle up and keep cozy for the flight, Christian had a very different experience.

Actor Eddie Deezen found himself behind bars earlier this month ... after cops say he was arrested for forcing his way into a nursing home.
According to the Maryland State Police, Eddie -- best known for playing nerdy Eugene Felsnic in the original 'Grease' movies -- pushed his way inside a privately-owned nursing facility on April 8 and refused to leave after a woman inside told him to scram.
Cops say the woman told them Eddie almost forced his way into one of the rooms before getting the boot, but she says he refused to leave the property and got busted when officers showed up.
Police say Eddie was at the place earlier in the day and was told skedaddle ... but Eddie came back that night and that's when police were called. The alleged victim told cops ... Eddie's been by her place several times before, claiming he usually leaves behind items with accompanying notes.
A neighbor who lives a few doors down from where Eddie was busted claims his security camera shows him approaching his property as well that night. He said he was watching TV with his fiancé when he heard something outside and saw Eddie on video trying to open the front door, so he called the cops.
Cops say Eddie's charged with fourth-degree burglary, two counts of trespassing and one count of disturbing the peace.
Eddie was involved in a bizarre situation last year ... when a Maryland waitress accused him of being a creep and harassing her ... Deezen went on social media and accused her of cyberbullying.
Eddie was also arrested last year at a Maryland restaurant, with cops saying he refused to leave after causing a scene and chucked plates at police during the incident.
People who say they're close to Eddie shared an update on Facebook, claiming he's battling issues and his family is doing all they can to help him.
Eddie is still in police custody.

Kim Kardashian Flaming Hot Lunch Date ... With Kourtney & Khloe
Kim Kardashian was either headed to lunch or on her way to fight crime and save the San Fernando Valley as she stepped out in a superhero-chic outfit to meet Kourtney and Khloe.
The three sisters got their grub on Wednesday, and while Kourtney and Khloe wore something more reserved ... Kim rocked a flaming bodysuit, red leather skirt, gloves, fuzzy glasses and a fuzzy purse.
It's definitely a more flashy look than we've seen from Kim ... usually opting for a figure-hugging single-color piece. As we told you, Kim reveals on the premiere episode of "The Kardashians" Kanye offered to drop everything and become her full-time stylist, but this obviously isn't one of his looks ... as the couple isn't currently communicating much.
It appears the sisters were shooting for their Hulu show, shooting at Il Fornaio in Woodland Hills ... with producers visible at the restaurant's entrance.
As we told you, they've already wrapped season 1 and submitted it to Hulu ... and season 2 is in production. No sign of Pete, but we know he's already gotten some face time for the new season.

Kanye West House He Bought Next Door To Kim's on Ice ... Remodel Seems Stalled
-
Exclusive
- 1K shares
Kanye West is either having second thoughts on moving or he's taking a long time to decide exactly what he wants to do with the property he bought next to Kim Kardashian's Hidden Hills estate.
You'll remember, Ye bought the modest crib back in December because he wanted to be closer to his kids as he and Kim navigated their divorce and their future as co-parents. Truth be told, at the time he bought the house, he was trying to reconcile with Kim.
We scoured the building records for Hidden Hills and Kanye has taken out no construction permits. He was planning on gutting the house, which needed tons of work. But there's no evidence he or his construction team are pulling permits to do work on the property.
Of course, Kanye's already deep into renovations on a beach home in Malibu he paid nearly $60 million for ... so it's not like Kanye isn't into home renovation. Now it's possible Kanye is working with an architect on plans and they haven't submitted them to the city, but neighbors tell us they haven't seen any activity at the home.
Kanye wanted the fixer-upper because it's a stone's throw from the family house Kanye built after purchasing it together in 2014. As we reported, Kim bought the house from him for $23 mil, and Ye wanted the other home so he could be near the kids. Fact is ... Malibu isn't that far, so it wouldn't be a hassle to shuttle the kids back and forth from Malibu to Hidden Hills.
It seems tensions have subsided somewhat between Kanye and Kim, although Kim has said they are not really communicating these days. That would make for an awkward next-door-neighbor situation, for sure.

Dennis Quaid and Ex-Wife We Modified Child Custody Agreement ... 2 Weeks On, 2 Weeks Off

Dennis Quaid and his ex-wife, Kimberly, are switching up how they take care of their kids ... and now it's a more even split.
According to new legal docs, obtained by TMZ, Dennis and Kimberly agreed to a 2 weeks on, 2 weeks off schedule for child custody ... with each parent getting their twins for 2 weeks at a time and then swapping.
In the docs, the actor's ex says if Dennis can't take care of the twins for some reason, she will look after them and Dennis will pay her $225 per child for every day he misses.
As we first reported ... the 2018 divorce agreement with Kimberly called for her to get the lion's share of physical custody -- 75 percent.
The twins are 14 and will be starting high school in the fall, but will be going to different schools, so Dennis and Kimberly hammered out a plan to get the kids where they need to go.
The docs say Dennis will pay for a nanny to take the kids to school when Kimberly has the kids, and if the nanny is unavailable on any given day, Dennis is responsible for hiring another caretaker to drive the kids to school and foot the bill.
The twins were born at Cedars-Sinai in 2007 but faced a serious medical emergency. The nurses at the hospital accidentally gave them 10,000 units of a drug when they were supposed to receive a dose of 10 units. They survived the overdose and the Quaids received a $750,000 settlement from the hospital.

Camila Alves McConaughey is teaching kids how to eat properly with her children's book ... one that's made it on the New York Times Best Seller List -- joining the ranks of her husband Matthew McConaughey while he's still on the list!
We spoke to Camila on TMZ Live about her 1st book, "Just Try One Bite" ... the story following picky-eater parents that are confronted by their kids to trade junk foods like ice cream for a bite of something healthy.
The book made it to the NYT Best-Seller List instantly ... where husband Matthew has been for the last 65 weeks -- his autobiography, "Greenlights," has sold over 3 million copies.
Camila still is in shock that her book has reached such a popular level ... she says she moved to America from Brazil only knowing 3 English sentences, so to have a book published -- let alone become a best-seller -- is surreal.
Camila tells us the goal of her book isn't to tell parents how to feed their kids ... instead to get the whole family to share the importance of food and instill healthy habits at a young age.
She believes if parents open the discussion about food with their children, they will grow up as healthy adults.
She also talks about why she and Matthew moved from Malibu to Austin, so check it out today on "TMZ Live."

We caught up with Melissa's son, John Lucio, who was heading to a rally in Dallas to protest the impending execution.
John tells TMZ ... when he told his mom Kim Kardashian was advocating on her behalf, she was shocked and couldn't believe it. He says, Kim supporting her, alongside many others, really uplifted her spirit.
Kim has called on Texas Gov. Abbott to halt the execution ... which is scheduled for April 27. She's spoken out on this issue on her social media and shared a letter to the Governor from Melissa's 14 children.
Melissa has been sitting on death row for nearly 15 years. She was convicted back in 2008 of murdering her 2-year-old daughter. Melissa told cops her daughter fell down a flight of stairs when they arrived.
Melissa's family, attorneys and supporters all note she initially asserted her innocence but was coerced into a false confession ... after hours of tough interrogation.
As you know, Kim has been a long-time advocate for criminal justice reform ... speaking out on other death row cases in Texas, like Rodney Reed.
If executed, Melissa would be the first Latina put to death in Texas in the modern era.
