View Full Version : Dumbest Celebrity Baby Names
After the birth of Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes's little baby, which they named Suri, my local paper, the Toronto Sun, published a list of other celebrity children that were given really odd names and I'd like to share them with you here, along with their famous parent's names on the right. As you go through the list, keep one question in mind: What were they thinking??? Or, if you prefer, what were they on?

retrochick9 05-02-2006, 12:32 AM I'm sure the nurses at LA area hospitals have to have training on how to keep a straight face when presented with the task of asking celebrities the baby's name for the birth certificate!!! :lol: :lol:

Dweezil, Moon Unit, Ahm, and Diva Muffin --- Frank Zappa
Ahm, is that a typo? I know he has a son named Ahmet is that what you meant?
I think Rob Morrow has a really bad celebrity name. His daughter is named Tu as in Tu Morrow. Poor girl. ohno:
Superstar 05-02-2006, 03:16 AM Apple and Moses are the dumbest names I've ever heard of.
Pitooey 05-02-2006, 09:01 AM Lourdes (Madonna's daughter) is not a wild name. It is the name of a saint.
I feel so out of it.... Maybe I'll change my name to Pitooey Balderdash Kontiki or
Pitooey Prunilda Haberdashery Orbit....
swedeace 05-02-2006, 09:04 AM For the most part, I think MOST (or all) celeb baby names are just chosen just for the attention and for their kids to have VERY unique and obvious baby names. :rolleyes:
Kal-El --- Nicolas Cage
That almost sounds/looks like Jor-El (Superman's father), and I know someone (a friend of mine) who has Jorel as a middle name. His parents thought he was going to be a girl, so they scrambled to choose boy names. That's what they came up with. :lol:
Chad Michael Murray 05-02-2006, 11:22 AM Well swedeace, it probably sounds like that to you because Kal-El is actually Superman's name.
Anyway, as weird as names like Apple are, I think Pilot Inspecktor has to be the WORST one of all time.
~LadyJess~ 05-02-2006, 11:54 AM Apple and Moses are the dumbest names I've ever heard of.
Although they are actually quite tame compared to some celeb baby names on that list.
Penny Lane 05-02-2006, 01:02 PM David Carradine and Barbara Hershey named their son Free. This was in the late 60's/early 70's so that was typical of the times. Barbara Hershey even changed her name to Barbara Seagull after seeing a dead sea gull. :rolleyes:

Mr. Stefani 05-02-2006, 01:31 PM I like the name Lourdes

lol...I was gonna say that too. It's funny...but not for a lifetime.
swedeace 05-02-2006, 02:01 PM Well swedeace, it probably sounds like that to you because Kal-El is actually Superman's name.
Ah, I see. That's where the "-El" parts in the names originate from... the Superman characters.
dawsongirl 05-02-2006, 02:13 PM Diezel and Denim --- Toni Braxton
What she was working on and what she was wearing upon conception.
Heavenly Hirani Tiger Lily --- Michael Hutchense and Paula Yates
Has to be funny mushrooms or LSD.
Dandelion --- Keith Richards
What he was smoking...
Elijah Bob Patricius Guggi Q --- Bono
lol...as weird as that is...it's the BOB that throws it totally out of whack.
Moxi CrimeFighter --- Penn Jillette
Too many comic books.
Pilot Inspecktor --- Jason Lee
His future occupation.
Banjo Taylor --- Rachel Griffiths
Oh sure...put a normal name behind Banjo. Yee Haw!
Daisy Boo and Poppy Honey --- Jamie "The Naked Chef" Oliver
A little too high on the cutesy spices there Mr. Chef.
Racer, Rebel, and Rocket --- Robert Rodriguez
Built in nicknames.
Jermajesty --- Jermaine Jackson
All I got is WTF? That whole family is wicked insane.
Reign-Beau and Freedom --- Ving Rhames
hahaha...cute. not. Freedom Rhames....dear god...
Hopperjack --- Sean Penn
Again...what they were on.
Kal-El --- Nicolas Cage
They could have at least named him Clark or Kent....hell, Lois would have been better.
Janice Johnson 05-07-2006, 08:04 AM Apple and Moses are the dumbest names I've ever heard of.
What's wrong with the name Moses? Moses is a normal name....................
80sTrivia 05-07-2006, 08:43 AM You have to feel sympathy for celebrity children, branded with some highly ridiculous monikers... I shudder to think what Brangelina will name their baby... :crazy:
spunkygirl 05-07-2006, 09:36 AM What about Phineus (sp?) that's what Julia Roberts named one of her twins ohno: The other is named Hazel, which isn't too bad of a name
peachysquirt21 05-10-2006, 07:19 PM The name Tom Cruise & Katie Holmes named there girl is just idiotic. That poor girl having to go by the name Suri.
Courtnee 05-10-2006, 08:34 PM The name Tom Cruise & Katie Holmes named there girl is just idiotic. That poor girl having to go by the name Suri.
her full name is Ohsosuriyourdadistom Cruise
;)
dawsongirl 05-11-2006, 12:09 AM her full name is Ohsosuriyourdadistom Cruise
;)
:rofl:
Pitooey 05-11-2006, 10:09 AM :crazy: Those poor poor kids... :eek:
Imagine this........
A teacher yelling at Jermajesty...
"Jermajesty sit your butt down! " or
Jermajesty! You are no king in this classroom sit down!!!
A teacher yelling at Hopperjack.............
"Hopperjack take the pencil out of your mouth and have some pride! Sit with your head up! " Those parents are mean...... :crazy:
Apple? Did you bring an apple for the teacher??? :p
Pitooey 05-11-2006, 10:41 AM In school... kids are so mean. With a normal name you get picked on imagine a weird name?
Those kids probably would have to go to ultra private schools. They can't go to one of our public schools here in the good ole USA.
I cannot see Speck Wildhorse in a regular class. :p
From the beginning of these young lives with those crazy names the children are looked upon as different. They have such pressure already having a famous parent. I'm sure all they want is to fit in with the rest of the kids. You can see why alot of these kids go the other route. Say like what happened to River Pheonix..... Even though you may not think River Pheonix is a bad name back in the 60's people were up in arms over that name.
Number 9 Dream 05-11-2006, 11:58 PM I always thought River Phoenix was such a gorgeous name....gorgeous name for a gorgeous guy (which is a little weird for me to say since my brother looks like a cross between River Phoenix and Kurt Cobain). What a tragedy :( Seems like he had a lot of talent and would've done well in the acting world has he lived.

spunkygirl 05-12-2006, 12:50 AM her full name is Ohsosuriyourdadistom Cruise
;)
:rofl:
GeorgiaboyJeff! 05-13-2006, 11:01 PM I know the R&B singer Erykah Badu named her child Seven & the R&B singer Ginuwine had two children named Storm & Story if I'm not mistaken! These are some weird names!!!
Superstar 05-14-2006, 06:44 AM What's wrong with the name Moses? Moses is a normal name....................
whats right with the name Moses? Its weird.
EmoJoe 05-14-2006, 02:24 PM those are all the worst names i've ever heard o_O JERMAJESTY?
Here's another name you can add to the list.
Earlier this week, Geri "Ginger Spice" Halliwell gave birth to a girl that she named---are you sitting down?---Bluebell Madonna!
Now I happen to like the name Madonna. I think it's a beautiful name, shared by the original Virgin Mary and the Material Girl, who is one of Geri's idols.
But Bluebell??? Where did that come from? That sounds like something you'd name a cow! Is it not bad enough that she was the one who broke up the Spice Girls in the first place right at the peak of their popularity, thus leading to their quick and imminent demise? Maybe this is a sign of revenge at the rest of the group, I don't know.
And I always thought Victoria was the weird one...:lol:
ABlairican Pie 05-26-2006, 01:54 AM Frank Zappa could get away with naming his kids Moon Unit, Dweezil, and Diva Muffin, because he was always doing things the wacky, unconventional way.
I'd like to name my kids Steve Harris ABlairica, Bruce Dickinson ABlairica, Dave Murray ABlairica, Adrian Smith ABlairica, Janick Gers ABlairica, and Nicko McBrain ABlairica.
80sTrivia 05-26-2006, 06:01 AM Earlier this week, Geri "Ginger Spice" Halliwell gave birth to a girl that she named---are you sitting down?---Bluebell Madonna!
I had to :rolleyes: when I read that Geri named her daughter Bluebell Madonna!!! Poor kid!!! :crazy: :crazy: :crazy:
Have you ever wondered why celebrities give such weird names to their kids? I have, and today I found this link from Yahoo.com that attempts to explain this mind-boggling trend. Have a look:
http://news.yahoo.com/s/nm/20060602/od_nm/life_names1_dc
In other words, why name your son Michael or Joseph when he could be a Pilot Inspektor? Sometimes you just have to shake your head and wonder how some people can be so stupid, and, even worse, they don't even realize it!
