Karlie Kloss<\/a>\u2019 parents were \u201cway ahead of the trend\u201d when it came to naming her and her sisters. <\/p>\n <\/p>\n
Karlie Kloss praises her ‘ahead of the trend’ parents<\/p>\n
The model has three siblings – an older sister called Kristine and younger twin sisters called Kimberly and Kariann – meaning that all of them have the same, alliterative initials. <\/p>\n
Reflecting on the name choices, Karlie called it \u201ca real commitment\u201d, as she laughed: \u201cMy parents were way ahead of the trend. \u2029\u201cI don’t think they knew about the Kardashians back in the ’90s when they were naming us all. But we are all KKs!\u201d<\/p>\n
All four of the Kloss sisters having the same initials didn\u2019t make things easy for their grandma, with Karlie admitting that their elderly relative \u201cstill calls me the wrong name\u201d. <\/p>\n
\t\t\t<\/p>\n
However, as a mum of three herself, Karlie added to ScaryMommy: \u201cI now have three children, and I find I do the same thing, and none of them have the same letters. <\/p>\n
\n\u201cSo I get it. Mum brain is real. It’s totally real.\u201d<\/p>\n
\nKarlie is mum to Levi, Elijah and Rae with husband Joshua Kushner. <\/p>\n
\nShe\u2019s also the founder of non-profit Kode with Klossy – a summer program designed to make computer coding more accessible and available for girls – and is hoping that her new book Spaghetti Code will also inspire their younger siblings to try out coding too. <\/p>\n
\nKarlie explained: \u201cI wanted a touch point that could reach young women even earlier than our camps and our programs do.<\/p>\n
\n\u201cWe have year-round programming for 13- to 18-year-old young people around the world, but I really wanted to have something for their younger siblings that they could start to sort of see characters and stories that embody the same spirit of our scholars.<\/p>\n
\n\u201cThat’s really what this book is all about.\u201d<\/p>\n
\nSpaghetti Code follows Kelly Kent – a heroine who \u201cuses her coding superpowers to save the day and to help a small business owner in town\u201d.<\/p>\n
\nWith Karlie explaining: \u201cGenuinely, this spirit, and also this idea, is very much not dissimilar from the real-life scholars and the real-life heroes in our community who use their coding superpowers to be active in their communities and to build ideas that can help other people or build small businesses. <\/p>\n
\n\u201cThe reason why I wanted to write the book was because I wanted to sort of tell this story for a younger audience.\u201d<\/p>\n
