Help[Opinions] Re: The crazy names of celebrity kids
in reply to a message by magicalm
I think celeb baby names are great. Like, what's the point of being a celebrity if you can't do whatever the hell you want.
You basically listed off all of my favorites too. I love the Pitt-Jolie kids' names. They're excellent. Not super heard of before their births/adoptions, but not super crazy off the wall so it's unapproachable. Like, other people hear these names and go "OH neat I've never thought of that but I LIKE IT" and that's why Maddox, Shiloh, Vivienne, and Knox gained popularity. It's okay that Pax didn't, because it's a feminine name. Too bad about Zahara.
Also your arguements against them are terrible? "Pax sounds like Packs?" Yes thank you for the pronunciation guide, did you also know that Noah sounds like "no, uh"?
Haven and Honor are both words. WOW. That's terrible, no one else ever used words as names before. Actually both of these names are nice and while I prefer Haven on a boy, I see no problem here?
Harper Seven is like... not that original? I know she got a lot of "omg crazy" comments but I DONT GET WHY? People have been using Harper on a girl for years. And people have used Seven before too. Like, non celebrity people were doing this before her.
And names don't automatically define personality. She can be girly and have a "boy's name" (NO its not even a boys name, it's a WORD! Which is the same naming sin (apparently) that Jessica Alba committed. Gaaasp).
Moxie Crimefighter is cool. Whatever. Crimefighter is cool. I saw a BA once for Ella Firedancer. Like, I think if you're about to give your daughter the middle name Marie and you have no family reason to do so, you should stop and consider using two words mashed together that sound like an awesome career. Sophia Marie? No. Sophia Vampirehunter. Moxie is a word that doesn't strike me as negative, plus it sounds like Maxie. It's cool! and it's a celebrity kid! Like do you really think this child is going to have trouble in school really
omg did you hear beyonce and jay-z named their daughter BLUE IVY? That's like, two words? And a color? And sounds like Blew?

Word, I wish more people named their kids like celebs. I mean, christ, we don't have name laws, why doesn't our culture take advantage of that. But no, everyone wants to name their kids Brayden James and Presley Elizabeth, so if I want to name my kid something cool it has to be making a big fat statement. Harrumph.

Ahaha, yes! Ella Firedancer is actually an awesome name. Oh, new things to play with.

I'm totally naming my daughter Sophia Vampirehunter. And her twin (invariably in my family) will be Haven Fireswallower.
I agree with pretty much all of this (and I don't think I ever thought of Haven on a boy but I kinda like it now), except I don't like Blue Ivy. It makes me think of the ivy plant but an ugly shade of blue that is sticky and smells bad. I don't know why. But agree 100% with everything else.

I don't care for Blue Ivy either but I also don't see anything wrong with it. I was actually hoping for something more original from them, Blue's been used several times by other celebrities before them.

Indigo would have been better than Blue.

Beyonce named Blue Ivy after her favorite color and his favorite number.

Does having personal meaning make it less "crazy" than some of the names you listed in the original post?
I'm just wondering.

I still think it sounds stupid. And that criteria wouldn't be enough to name my daughter that. The imagery is so so bad in my head. But personal choices are just that, personal.

Yeah, it just sounds like something an eighth grader would name her kid. Meaningful, sure, but still dumb.
