A nice Emily or Sarah or Melissa? Soo not Hollywood. Names like Brian, William or Ken? Yeah, right. Because, apparently, when you're a big-time star -- be it actor, musician, model or athlete -- it seems there is a weird-quotient that must be factored in when it comes to your child's name. Whether you borrow from the supermarket (Apple, Sage, Thyme), an atlas (Bronx, Brooklyn, Memphis) or superhero-sound-alikes (Kal-el, Moxie CrimeFighter, Pilot Inspektor), stars are guaranteeing their offspring will stand out in one way or another.
Here's a list of ParentDish's 100 weirdest baby names, in alphabetical order. Hey, the richer the parents are, the less likely you are to be teased. Just ask Tallulah, Rumer and Scout.

noreenarshad said...Excuse me, but names like Gulliver and Phinnaeus are classics. What about "Miley" or "Selena", or "Miranda"? Oh wait, that's right, you think just because those names aren't used by someone from Disney or TeenNick, it's considered odd? The fact that these are individual children, you think you can pick on thier perfectly beautiful names, as long as the child isn't an international teen actor/actress for a major coporation? My name is Noreen Arshad, by the way. In my culture, Nor means light. I like to separate the parts of my last name so I get the words ash and shard, like a shard of glass. And I think it's lovely.
The light streamed through the shards of glass, illuminating upon the ashes of the once jubulant flower.
Got a problem with that?
By the way, RIP Michael Jackson, and I hope no one will ever try to hurt his memory or his children!

Callie said...Back in the 80s I worked for a hospital doing birth certificates. Someone named their son Spooky Blue, and another named their daughter Montana * (yep, just the asterisk as a middle name, lol). I saw lots of weird names, but those always stuck with me.
