Celebrity Baby

Anyone remember a little show called Full House? ;p

Well Stephanie "How Rude!" Tanner aka Jodie Sweetin, 26 and her husband Cody Herpin, 30, have welcomed their first child, an 8lbs 7oz daughter they've named Zoie.

I've just spent the last five or six months watching every season of Full House from start to finish and it's amazing to think that Jodie is now a mum! She seems like a great young woman and she was really excited to become a mum. Anyway, I love the name choice, but wish they had've used Zoe instead.

What are everyone else's opinions on Zoie?

Update: her full name is Zoie Laurel May

I think the "Zoie" spelling is kind of silly. Zoe looks much nicer. Zoe Laurel May is very nice.

I like Zoe well enough, but why stick an "i" in there? I want to pronounce it ZOY, to rhyme with boy or joy. :b

While the spelling is awful I prefer Zoe or Zoey, they did a better job than most celbrities. It is really wierd that "Stephanie" is a mom though. I still think of her as seven because of the show.

I also love Zoie, although I might prefer Zoe. It looks more classic, I guess.

Oh, I loved Full House! I miss that show. Yeah, I have to agree. It would have been better if they used Zoe.

I will always think of her as Stephanie - the pre-teen from Full House one of my all time favourite programs. I can't imagine her being a mom. I didn't even realize Zoie was a variant of Zoey. I thought it was just another weird celebrity baby name. Zoey is adorable.

I like Zoe, it's classic but spunky at the same time. Zoie though is just silly imo. It looks like it should be pronounced Zoy-ee or just Zoy, and so unlike Zoey, which I can tolerate, it's just adding a random letter which spoils a lovely name.

I was just watching Full House reruns today:-)

I love Zoe, but Zoie not so much, I keep wanting to pronounce it differently.

EW! Zoe would have been better, but I'm not even wild about that.

I loved watching Full House! Jodie Sweetin was so cute when she was little, I think it sucks that she never became big after the show ended.

She apparently went the way of many child stars and was addicted to drugs for a while (which may be why we did see her for several years). I remember reading she had a meth problem for a few years. :-/ Scary.
