Kanye West designing wedding ring for North

Kanye West is designing a personalised diamond wedding ring for his and Kim Kardashian West's 15-month-old daughter North West.

The 36-year-old rapper is keen to create North West's first ever band, which will have the little one's name engraved on it and feature a diamond big enough to ensure she can wear it now.

A source said: ''He's in the process of designing her a one-of-a-kind diamond ring for her to wear on her wedding finger. It symbolises dada's love for his little angel. ''Call him crazy, but that's what he's doing.

He says it's going to be princess cut with her name engraved in the band and will have the biggest diamond on it that she can possibly carry on her little finger.'' The rapper has enlisted the help of jeweller Lorraine Schwartz - who created his wife and North's mother Kim Kardashian West's engagement ring - to create the special band, and he ''doesn't care'' if the gift seems a little extravagant. The source added to HollywoodLife.com: ''He will be the first man to put a ring on his girl's finger.

He's waiting until she gets a little older and will have Lorraine make it to fit her little finger. ''He will do nothing short of spoiling her because that's what he wants to do. ''That little girl means everything to him and there's not a limit on what she can have. He's lucky to be doing it and incredibly thankful, too.'' News of Kanye's gift comes shortly after it was revealed Kim has hired a tailor and stylist for North to ensure her little one has outfits which coordinate with her own.

A source said: ''Kim has hired North her own personal tailor whose sole job it is to make mini versions of Kim's designer outfits and ensure they always co-ordinate. ''The tailor, who is also paid to act as North's stylist, works with Kanye and Kim's styling team to create her looks. ''Some are collaborations or commissions to designers themselves and others are created in-house.''
