HelpCelebrity Baby Names
I asked this question before, but I thought I'd ask it again, since a couple of years have passed: Are there any celebrity baby names you actually like?
Me, I'm partial to Frank Zappa's kids' names. I know they're ridiculous, but since I'm a huge Zappa fan, I think they represent Frank's creativity very well. It just wouldn't make sense for him to give his kids names like Mary or John, so he went with Moon Unit, Dweezil, Ahmet, and Diva. Nice.
I also like Tigerlily (Robert Hutchence's daughter), and Willow Sage (P!nk/Cary Hart.) The Jolie-Pitts all have memorable-but-not-kooky names, and I think they strike a good balance.
What about you?

I like Jennifer Connelly's children's names Kai, Stellan and Agnes Lark. I'm not particularly found of Kai but I LOVE Agnes Lark as a combo.
Not exactly current celebrities (obviously) but Roald Dahl and Patricia Neal's children, Olivia, Tessa, Theo, Ophelia and Lucy.
Jamie Oliver's children have...interesting names. :/ Ok, so I don't particularly like his (and his wife's) naming style but I like their guts and confidence and how they started with relatively normal names and then gradually got 'weirder' with each child.
My reaction to each child's name:
Poppy Honey Rosie (Ok, it's a bit sickly sweet but there are some nice names there), Daisy Boo Pamela (I sense a theme here, nms but Daisy is nice, Pamela grounds it and Boo, well, it's surprising), Petal Blossom Rainbow (Run out of flower names and just going for the different parts of the flower?), Buddy Bear Maurice (*Facepalm*)

Actor Peter Gallagher (sp?) has a dd named Anais. I thought that was pretty good. SJP and Matthew Broderick have James, Marion and Tabitha. Seeing twins Marion and Tabitha together made me like those names even more. Great pairing of names.
If you're asking about more "out-there" names, I can't think of any others at the moment. I'm sure there's one or two that I do like. I'm just drawing a blank at the moment. Oh wait. John Travolta and Kelly Preston's son Jett (RIP) wasn't altogether objectionable. Kind of snappy.
