15 Ridiculous Names Celebrities Gave Their Children
From the buzzing paparazzi to thousands of crazy fans – the life of a celebrity can be an exhausting one. Just like their star parents, celebrity children have a tough life too. Not only do they have to cope with all the fame, but have to live up to their name as well, no matter how weird it may be. Here is a collection of the most outrageous and downright ridiculous names that celebrities gave their children.
- Zuma Nesta Rock – Gwen Stefani and Gavin Rossdale
Maybe the couple loved the beautiful Zuma beach in Malibu and named their son Zuma, or maybe they were really into the video game from PopCap. Either way, none of them justify naming your son Zuma.
- Moxie Crimefighter – Penn Jillette
The first time you read it, it seems like one of those names children make up for themselves, too bad it was Moxie Crimefighter’s mother who named her. She is not the crime fighter the world needs but surely deserves.
- North West – Kayne West and Kim Kardashian
Self-righteous singer Kanye West and “artistic” Kim Kardashian had a baby, so it’s fair to anticipate what the baby’s name would be. Their daughter is named North West, with no affiliation with the former airline or the Geo-direction either.
- Kal-El – Nicolas Cage
Who wouldn’t want to be named after the last remnant of the House of El – the Man of Steel Superman? Being a comic book nerd, Nicolas Cage changed his last name as a tribute to the comic book superhero Luke Cage.
- Fifi Trixiebelle – Bob Geldof and Paula Yates
Another name that sounds like a character from a Dr. Seuss book, parents Bob and Paula are known for their “creativity” when naming their children. The couple didn’t hold anything back when naming their other two daughters Honeyblossom and Pixie.
- Audio Science – Shannyn Sossamon
There are plenty of colleges for Chemistry and Biology and Physics, it’s time to create something like… Audio Science! Unless Shannyn is preparing her son to stand up against Beats by Dr. Dre, Audio should probably have his name changed when he’s old enough.
- Jermajesty – Jermaine Jackson
If Michael Jackson can name his son, Prince Michael, why can’t his brother create a poorly crafted and royally pointless name for his son? Jermajesty sounds like one of those 90’s independent hip-hop albums they used to sell on the streets for a dollar.
- Apple – Gwyneth Paltrow
Not the wildest of baby names when you put it against some the other ones out there, but wonder if Tomato, Grape or Avocado were some of the other names Gwyneth Paltrow considered for her daughter.
- Denim – Toni Braxton
Don’t we love that one pair of stonewashed jeans that has been with us for years? Toni Braxton apparently loves the material so much, she didn’t flinch once before naming her son Denim.
- Sage Moonblood – Sylvester Stallone
Sage sounds beautiful and mystical, probably a good name for a boy, but why add Moonblood? Stallone’s son has a name that sounds like a mystical herb that vampire hunters would use to lure in their prey.
- Kyd – David Duchovny and Tea Leoni
The celebrity couple named their kid – Kyd. That is probably the laziest act of parenting that someone could commit. The “y” instead of the “I” does not make it look unique, just looks like a typo.
- Tu Morrow – Rob Morrow
Fun story, the couple came up with this name for their daughter during a drunken conversation, before the child was even conceived. Maybe they haven’t been sober ever since?
- Pilot Inspektor – Jason Lee
Jason Lee is an actor, a director, a skateboarder and so much more. He is also the father of Pilot Inspektor. Cannot decide what’s more outrageous – the childish spelling or the fact that “pilot inspector” is not a real job.
- Diezel – Toni Braxton
If there was an award for terrible baby names, Toni Braxton would win the award twice. As if naming her son after a fossil fuel wasn’t bad enough, the “z” instead of the “s” is the nail that sealed the coffin.
- Seven – Andre Benjamin and Erykah Badu
Ah, names are too mainstream, we’ll name him after a number – said the couple before naming their son, Seven. Erykah has two other children, named Puma and Mars, so Seven not only shares the same blood with his siblings but the embarrassment of a wacky name.
