Swifties are convinced Taylor Swift’s middle name led to Travis Kelce’s ‘Alice in Wonderland’ epiphany

He knows how to ball, she knows Aristotle — clearly.

Travis Kelce admitted on the “New Heights” podcast Wednesday that he recently found out the main character from “Alice in Wonderland” is not named Alison Wonderland.

His confession left Swifties convinced that Taylor Swift played a part in his revelation, as Alison is the pop star’s middle name.

Social media users hilariously guessed at how the couple’s conversation about the classic Disney movie might have gone via X.

“Travis: Baby, you have the same name of that girl who follows a rabbit and falls in a hole to another world,” one fan wrote. “Taylor: Are you talking about … Alice? Travis: No no no, Alison. Alison Wonderland.”

Another agreed, “There is only one explanation for Travis finding out it’s Alice (and not Alison) In Wonderland and this is it.”

Others speculated that Swift and Kelce, both 34, may have spoken about the movie in reference to her 2014 song “Wonderland.”

Whatever the case, Swifties gushed over the Grammy winner’s “special” partner and urged him to “never change.”

Jason Kelce, for his part, cracked up over his brother’s revelation during the episode.

The 1951 animated film came up when the siblings drank tea on air and compared themselves to Tweedledee and Tweedledum.

“I … found out over the summer that it’s Alice in Wonderland, not Alison Wonderland,” the “Catching Kelce” alum mused.

Jason laughed, pointing out, “We’ve watched the movie, though. You know her name wasn’t Alison.”

Travis replied, “I thought it was. Not one time did I catch that, dude.”

The NFL stars recorded the episode from London as they had journeyed across the pond for Swift’s Eras Tour shows.

While they did not reflect on Travis’ surprise onstage appearance, they gushed over the singer’s “amazing” talent and their backstage meet-and-greet with the “coolest motherf–ker” Prince William and his kids.
