Twins for Brangelina!

[sarahrose.livejournal.com]

Yahoo is reporting that Angelina had her twins yesterday (the 12th) by c-section! Yay! I'm so excited. So many celeb births this past week! And from my favorites!

The names are being reported so far as Knox Leon and Vivienne Marcheline. LOVE THEM! YAY!

They join siblings Zahara, Pax, Maddox and Shiloh.


Congrats to them!

Don't know why...but I had a feeling this whole time that she would give birth to them on my birthday! And if they really were born on the 12th, then my feeling was right! Don't care for her or Brad too much, but I can't deny that they make pretty babies. :)

Yay for digestible celeb baby names!

I am still on the fence about Knox.

[adamantplatypus.livejournal.com]

I hate Knox. That makes her boys:

Maddox, Pax and Knox.


Are you KIDDING me? Sounds like a series of silly noises you make with your tongue.

Happy Birthday!

She really does like the "X" sound and I'm not sure I like it. It's so repetitive, IMO. I do like the name Maddox, but the others just seem like overkill.

The girl's name is beautiful though!

...Marcheline? O.o

[fireyirishangel.livejournal.com]

Marcheline was Angelina's mother's name - I believe she passed away fairly recently, didn't she?

I love the name Vivienne, and the significance of Marcheline. It's not a name I'd pick, but honoring family members forgives a lot of name sins I'd otherwise take issue with.

I don't care for Knox Leon at all, and I agree that Knox/Pax/Maddox is overkill with the X sounds.

Vivienne is the only name of all their brood that I actually like.

Yeah her mom died in January 2007. I find it sad when grandparents die young, well anyone really, but at least she got to meet three of her grandchildren.

As for the names, they are interesting. Knox reminds me of this lumber and hardware store, that might only be a midwest thing.

[th3-unicorn.livejournal.com]

Is Knox a boy then? It sounds masculine and she has a pattner of final -x's in her boys' names.

I like Vivienne!

[poutyshorty.livejournal.com]

I thought she was having two girls? One turned out to be a boy? LOL.

Knox is silly, but I live Vivienne. And it's cool the middle name is after her Mum.

They were born the day before my b'day (which is today ^_^) :D

It's official, Shiloh really is the odd one out.
Maddox, Zahara, Pax, Knox, Vivienne.
No obscure letter in Shiloh's name. :P

That being said, I'm loving Knox Leon, but Vivienne Marcheline doesn't seem to fit, does it?

[fleckerbug.livejournal.com]

Knox is horrible, makes me think of Knox gelatin, but I'm loving Marcheline so much that I wish they hadn't used it, lol, thought they probably made it up but I googled it and it's her mother's name.. they look a lot alike, she's Angelina without that yicky mouth. I think the rest of their childrens' names are horrible as well. Too many xes. I get irritated when Maddox gets lumped in with the rest.. she adopted him with Billy Bob Thornton. I have no problem with step-parenting and siblings being the same to each other regardless of how they're related, but call it what it is.. sorry just seems part of the whole nauseating celebrity thing.. removable daddy.

Ew, but wait, Marcheline is apparently some silly smooshing of her mother's first and middle names, but her mom did go by it. Ugh.

[fleckerbug.livejournal.com]

I see by researching.. and it makes me nauseous to research them , that Pitt did adopt the kids. Still.. removable daddy. Thornton not having custody doesn't make him not the father.

[lilacmermaid.livejournal.com]

Don't like them. Any of them. At least they're all real, normal(ish) names, compared to her other kids' names, but I don't like them. Knox Leon seems to flow oddly to me, I guess maybe because they're both short names. It sounds kind of like "Knoxly On".

Marcheline I mind less because it's obviously to honour her mother, but I'm still not a fan.

[th3-unicorn.livejournal.com]

except for the repeat h in Shiloh :P

I'd say Vivienne is the odd one out, it's the only legit western name!

[lovablemess.livejournal.com]

Vivienne is very high up on my list. Knox is strange, and a bit too close to Pax and Maddox for comfort.

My mother's winning comment of the day- "If she has one more boy, she's going to name him Lox".

[politicking.livejournal.com]

Marcheline, as someone pointed out is to honor her mother.
Knox is the middle name of Brad Pitt's maternal grandfather, I believe. and Leon is Angelina's Great Great Grandfather, or something.

So, I like that they use family names... but I do agree that the MaddoX, PaX, KnoX is a little much for me.

[laminy.livejournal.com]

I don't like either of them. Leon and Marcheline are nice, but Vivienne is just...I don't like that name a lot more than I dislike Knox.

Yes, it's close to Pax and Maddox obviously, but they seem to have a theme and this way is named after family; Knox sounds more Western than both of them though.

They're nice though. Pretty 'normal', I would say. Shiloh is still my favourite name though.

[sandtree.livejournal.com]

I hate Knox, but Vivienne Marcheline is awesome. I can't believe one of them got a great name like Vivienne!

Also, Knox is WAY too close to Pax and Maddox. But maybe they were going for a theme...? :-\

It's made up for by the awesomeness of Vivienne, though.

[sandtree.livejournal.com]

Did Angelina Jolie come to your house and kill your kids or something? Calm down, people... they're just celebrities.

[ghetto-lonetto.livejournal.com]

Happy birthday! :)

[seksimaggie.livejournal.com]

I heard on the news this morning that the boy was named Knox, but I missed what the girl's name was, and I discussed with some friends how celebs should not be allowed to name their babies anymore because too many have tried and failed, and how Angelina's kids all have (imo) awful names that don't even seem like names to me. But then I found out that the girl is named Vivienne and that's so pretty, I prefer Vivian but still, it just shocked me that she'd chosen something so NORMAL and NICE. So that's one win, five losses for her.

[arbus.livejournal.com]

vivienne is so ...classy and glamorous sounding compared to all of the other kids.

i agree with pretty much everyone else, she seems to have a thing for obscure letters. whatever. i cant stand those two anyway, so im not going to waste any more brain space on it.
