Taylor Hanson (of the Hanson brothers) and his wife just had another baby: Viggo Moriah. Viggo joins brothers River Samuel, Jordan Ezra and sister Penelope.

WDYT? Pretty awful imo. But I like River and Ezra.

SERIOUSLY? It's like, which one is not like the others . . .

I hate River, but I love Samuel, Jordan Ezra, and Penelope, and at least they all sort of flow together. Viggo Moriah is awful.

They always pick really cool names. I don't mind Viggo too much (although that may be due to my inappropriate crush on Viggo Mortensen) but Moriah is terrible.

I feel like a Hanson baby is being born every three months or so. Does that family have some kind of decreased gestational period or something?

I was reading around to confirm this--can't find anything conclusive, it seems to be a rumour.

Let me know if you find out for sure! I'm Mormon myself so that would be awesome. I was a major Hanson fan back in the day.

I don't really mind it. Maybe because I think Viggo Mortensen is really sexy, but the name isn't horrible. That said, I don't like it nearly as much as the other names.

I like Viggo, actually. Here we pronounce it VEE-go, I think that's nice.

I totally planned to name a son Viggo :) So I love it.

So Viggo Mortensen, River Phoenix, and Penelope Cruz, but who's Jordan named after?

Oh my!!! I had no idea she was even pregnant again!!!
It is awful. I mean, straight out the Lord of the Rings..
Moriah I guess keeps on the hebrew names tradition they have going..
Did they mention what the baby will go by?
Also, is it a boy or girl?? I can't tell!

I'm pretty sure Viggo is a boy's name, thinking of Viggo Mortensen and a male Dutch comedian called Viggo =).

In the article I read, they were quoted as calling him Viggo. So Ezra is the only one to go by his middle name out of Taylor & Natalie's kids.

This is the first Hanson baby name that I absolutely LOATHE. I love all of Taylor & Natalie's other kids' names, didn't think Shepherd was awful, loved Everett but not crazy about Monroe...Viggo is just plain awful to me, and then paired with Moriah?? I'm questioning their mental status at this point. LoL

I still <3 Taylor & Natalie though. Hopefully they'll have more sense about them with #5. Because face it, we all know a #5 is coming.

I'm personally expecting they hit number 10, at this rate :P

Yeah, I thought that was terrible.

Viggo works on one person, and one person only. Unforunately for this kid, that person is in his forties, and a sexy Oscar nominee. Sorry, kid!

In his fifties, now, actually 0_o I can't believe it myself.

I read it as Viggo Mortensen, exactly like the actor. XD Can't say I like it, but I do like their other kids' names, especially Penelope.

I had a hard time figuring out this baby was a boy. I knew a girl named Moriah growing up.

Never heard of the name Viggo. I hope it's pronounced VEE-go and not vig-go.

Is Viggo a boy or a girl? Because the only Viggo I've ever even heard of (Mortenson) is a boy, but Moriah...? I like Jordan and Penelope and Samuel. iffy on Ezra. River I like better on a girl.

BTW, LOVE your icon. (Major Twilight fangirl here. And yes, Renesmee is an awful name.)
