in the "matrix" post, someone mentioned celebrity baby names. i was just wondering what some on your favorites are. or maybe your least favorite.

my favorite is Frances Bean Cobain. i absolutely love it and wish it weren't courtney's kids name or else i'd steal it...although that would show how i'm just a whining gen-xer who misses kurt.

here are some others that i find "amusing"

Moxie Crimefighter (penn from penn & teller's kid)
Pilot Inspektor (jason lee's boy)
Trixie GoGo (the dude that won Hell's Kitchen season 1 named his daughter that although she passed away shortly after birth.)

I really like Mariska Hargitay's son's name -- August Miklos Friedrich Hermann. I think it's adorable and traditional and I love that there is so much family history in his name.

I also absolutely love Bruce Willis' daughter Scout's name. It's adorable and it's from my favorite book and just...I love it. Bruce did good.

you forgot Shannyn Sossamon's son, Audio Science. HORRIBLE!

I've always loved Slash's second son's name: Cash Anthony. It was meant to honor Johnny Cash, so that's yet another reason why I like it.

Pilot Inspektor cracks me up everytime, but all of those are horrible...
Don't forget Cocoa, and Apple! ;oP

Kingston James McGregor Rossdale. And not just because I'm in love with the kid's father, either. LoL It's different, but it sounds almost regal! I love it. And I think Kingston is a name that's great on a baby and could work well for an adult too.

Pilot Inspektor is just wrong.

How about Hazel and Phinneas, those names are so old fashioned. And Apple, of course (just weird).

Hardly. His other kids are Rumer and Tallulah. Not that I like Scout.

It sounds like a version of the bible.

To each their own, I guess!

Ving Rhames named his daughter Reignbeau (and his son Freedom, which is comparitavely not bad at all).

Gwenyth Paltrow's daughter's name makes me shudder.
Why would anyone name a child after a fruit?
"Come here Banana, come here!"

[omgzits--tam.livejournal.com]

Oh, and Forest Whittaker (sp?) named two of his children Ocean and True. I guess this is okay because he has an equally offbeat name as well.

I really like Madonna's daughter's name, Lourdes Maria Ciccone Leon, and I love the nickname Lola, too. Rocco's also grown on me now that I know that it's a legitimate Italian name and not one that she just pulled out of her ass, though it's still nowhere near my being in my list.

*sigh* I have to admit, I loove Britney Spear's new son's name Jayden James. I love the nickname JJ, plus those are two of my favourite names.

You forgot Robert Rodriguez's kids; Rocket, Racer, Rebel, Rogue, and Rhiannon!

I like the less out there ones. :) Lila Grace (Kate Moss's daughter) is a gorgeous name. Lily-Rose, Johnny Depp's daughter, has a cute name too.

I like Moxie Crimefighter for a pet, but man, I am glad that is not my name!

[after-the-ashes.livejournal.com]

It totally does!

[pinkslit.livejournal.com]

oh man...and jermaine jackson named his son jermajesty, john cougar mellencamp named his daughter speck wildhorse, and rachel griffiths named her boy banjo.

i could go on and on but i'll let it die...there are a lot on here that i've never heard before.

Rhiannon is cute ... and seems very normal compared to the others!

[ex-bluebonn.livejournal.com]

Courtney Cox and David Arquette named their daughter Coco.

In defence of Rachel Griffiths, she named her son Banjo after one of Australia's most popular (if not, the absolutely most popular of ALL TIME) poets/writers, A.B. "Banjo" Patterson. Not that I like his work all that much, but I think it was a nod to her and her husband's Australian heritage since they no longer live in Australia (add in the fact that she named her daughter Adelaide, South Australia's capital city, I really think she had a theme going).

But I don't care for it myself...

Rhiannon is...ick to me.
