Following is a response from Senior DHS Stata Specialist, Tom Pullum:

I assume that you are using PHPR52FL.dta as the household file and PHKR52FL.dta as the child file. Both of these files already have the wealth index on them. In the household file it is hv270. In the KR (and IR and BR) files it is v190. There is no need to merge with the WI file.
