Teen Twitter user predicted "Saint West" baby name

One teen Twitter user is being hailed as a prophet after people realized the teenager predicted Kim Kardashian West and Kanye West's baby's name in June.

A Los Angeles teenager with the Twitter handle @KlLLRudy is loving his newfound fame on the Internet.

Rudy tweeted in June, "watch kanye name his kid 'saint' or some stupid s**t," and when the Wests announced their son's name on Monday, Rudy reminded the Twitter community of his prediction.


"CMON," he wrote. "LOOK AT THE DATE."

"WHERES MY CREDIT," he tweeted at Kardashian West and West.

Later, he retweeted Kardashian West's tweet announcing the name, and wrote, "I SAID IT FIRST."

He also admitted, "even if they got the name from me, there's really no way I'd benefit from it."

That's where Rudy is wrong, because his Twitter account started to trend, with Twitter users begging him to pick Powerball numbers for them and which teams he thinks will win different sports games.

Rudy seems to believe in his luck as well. "guess who's about to buy lotto tickets," he tweeted.
