Wolfgang Van Halen and Kylie Jenner are two people unlikely to be involved in the same story, but here they both are and for good reason.

Jenner made headlines yesterday after sharing on her Instagram Stories that her one-month-old son is no longer named Wolf. She said, "We just really didn't feel like it was him. Just wanted to share because I keep seeing Wolf everywhere."

This received a reaction from Van Halen who retweeted the news along with just two words: "THANK F---." Wolf's mom, Valerie Bertinelli, shared her approval by simply responding with a GIF of Stefon from Saturday Night Live laugh-crying and wiping away tears.

Does this seem like a silly story? Yes, but do we also understand the joy Van Halen must be feeling right now? Also, yes. Who wants to share a name with a socialite's baby?
