The Grammy-nominated artist was born in Houston, Texas, in 1991, and named after his father, also Jacques Webster (via The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon). But where does the "Travis Scott" moniker come from?

"My favorite uncle's name is Travis." During a 2015 interview, Scott told Complex, going on to describe him as "smart and cool," an older figure he looks up to. And the rapper's self-given last name, "Scott," comes from one of his musical inspirations, Kid Cudi, whose real name is Scott Mescudi. According to The Tonight Show With Jimmy Fallon, Travis Scott's stage name is simply a combination of his "two superheroes." A perfect example of imitation is the sincerest form of flattery.

Despite the fact that Travis Scott is almost exclusively known by a stage name, his legal name, Jacques Webster II, is apparently still being passed down to his children.
