ZENtertainment - by Lisa Vankula Donovan

They named the baby what? Stupid celebrity children's names.

April 15th 2008 01:26
Why oh why is it that celebrities think it is cool to saddle their children with the most ridiculous names? Do they think being the child of a star is enough to stop the taunts? Do they send their children to school with bodyguards? Not to mention the thought that all of these kids must have had at some stage – that their parents must really hate them.

These, in my opinion, are among the silliest and are in no particular order. Now you may disagree and think they are cool and at least they aren’t boring. Give me boring any old day.

Rob Morrow – star of TV’s Numb3rs and former star of Northern Exposure. Dude, you are so funny, I’m sure your daughter Tu will love you for saddling her with that one. Get it? Tu Morrow. You bastard.


Michael Jackson just couldn’t think of enough names and called his two boys Prince Michael and Prince Michael II. Imagine how poor little II must feel. Not quite as bad as famous former heavyweight champion George Foreman’s sons, George Junior, George III, George IV, George V, George VI and George Travis Walls. One of his daughters is even called Georgetta. Narcissistic much?

But it seems Michael isn’t the only whacko in the Jackson family, his brother Jermaine called his son Jermajesty. This kid must wear armour to school.

Jason Lee is obviously as dumb as his My Name is Earl character, he named his son Pilot Inspektor. Now I actually like Jason Lee as an actor but as a father he is obviously a dumbarse.

All of the Yates / Geldof / Hutchence children. First there was Fifi Trixibelle, then came Peaches Honeyblossom, Pixie and Heavely Hiraani Tiger Lily. Oh good grief.

I’m sure Shannon Sossamon thought it was very cool to name her child Audio Science. I think it’s tantamount to child abuse. Maybe Audio can become friends with Penn Jillette’s children Moxie Crimefighter and Zolten and they can join the same therapy group.


How about Kal-El Cage. He will need to be a Superman to withstand the playground beatings he is in for. Nicholas, why? I suppose there are worse comic book characters.

Helena Christensen and Norman Reedus named their son Mingus. The poor child sounds like some dreaded disease that makes things drop off or at the very least needs a shot of penicillin.

Pneumatic model Jordan and singer (I use that term loosely) Peter Andre called their daughter Princess Tiaami. Maybe she could marry one of the Prince Michaels and they could start their own royal family.

But next time you think how bad life must be for Apple Martin or Daisy Boo Oliver spare a thought for the ultimate victims of parents without a clue or a conscience, Dweezil, Moon Unit, Ahmet Emuukha Rodin and Diva Thin Muffin Pigeen Zappa. Oh my.

But it’s not only celebrities that have a sense of humour. In Singapore, English is the most widely used language and all names are translated or converted to English when their Birth Certificate is issued.

Hi Johnny, I'm not sure they could fit that on his ID but that would be so funny.

Journeywoman, I would hold a grudge against my parents for eternity if I had to go through life with a name like Diva Thin Muffin. Holy crap that would be a tough life but yes it's funny stuff when you don't have to live with it

And Kim, I'm sure you're right, they will probably all be in therapy three times a week anyway. So very Hollywood!

It's not only Hollywood. Rachel Griffiths called her kid Banjo. I'm sure it was because of the poet but it sounds like Deliverence to me.

My children will be given suitable British names for good British stock, in fact they may well be nameless for a few weeks while this is all going on.

Hi Anonymous

You're right, it kind of brings up that whole duelling banjo music!

Hi Fobzy

Nothing wrong with a good strong British name but what will you call them while they're nameless? Although hey you would have to be better than Dweezil.

Hi charliesgirl

How exciting! Well all of my google ads seem to be about baby name lists so feel free to click away! Seriously, what an exciting time. Have fun picking out a name.

And yes, I think waaay too much pain meds were involved with the above names.

And Morgan, thanks for the comment about my site!

The kid is definitely going to get Iggy at school. It would make a cool name for a tabby though
