People magazine is posting that it's been confirmed by Angelina Jolie's doctor: she's given birth to B/G twins.
I really like Vivienne Marcheline - it's very pretty and elegant, but I think it sort of doesn't fit with her other children's names (Vivienne seems too classic to fit with the more spunky/unusual names of her other children). In my opinion the nn Viv fits in better with Maddox, Pax, Zahara and Shiloh.
I like that they've chosen to honor Angelina's mother with the mn Marcheline.

Knox Leon I don't like. What comes to mind is Fort Knox, which isn't a particular good association... I've read somewhere that Knox honors Brad's maternal grandfather, which I think is a nice gesture, but I still don't like the name on it's own merits.
I suppose it could have been worse - there was a gossip report somewhere that said she was going to use the name Pollux (which sounds like polution and b*llocks)...

All in all I think she could have done worse in the choosing of names...
Vivienne is a very pretty name while Knox is sort of blah (not good, but not absolutely terrible either).
