Worst Baby Names in the World

Being a celebrity involves a duty. It involves a lot of canape-eating and teeth-whitening as well, but it also includes an onus of being somewhat a role-model.

Celebrities know that people will try to emulate them because their life seems so much more rich and glamorous compared to theirs. If your famous, chances are you don’t even know what brands of washing powder are available in supermarkets anymore. You have a person solely employed to brighten your whites, and that’s something the rest of us would like a slice of please.

This is then a call out then to celebrities to stop giving your kids weird names that they have to wear for the rest of their now slightly-unfortunate lives because it triggers off normal people naming their kids after intangible words as well.

Sure having a kid called “pineapple” is cute when they’re 5 days old. Having a grandpa named that though takes the sweetness off somewhat.

Let’s take a look at some celebrity doozies:

Nicole Ritchie/Joel Madden: Harlow Winter Kate and Sparrow James Midnight

Michael Hutchence / Paula Yates: Heavenly Hiraani Tiger Lily

Bob Geldof / Paula Yates: Fifi Trixibelle, Peaches and Pixie

Lisa Bonet / Jason Momoa: Nakoa-Wolf Manakauapo Namakaeha Momoa

David Duchovny / Tea Leoni: Kyd

Sylvester Stallone / Sasha Czack: Sage Moonblood

Bono / Alison Hewson: Memphis Eve and Elijah Bob Patricius Guggi Q

Peter Andre / Jordan: Princess Tiaamii

Chris Martin / Gwyneth Paltrow: Apple and Moses

Mariah Carey / Nick Cannon: Moroccan Scott and Monroe

Richard Gere / Carey Lowell: Homer James Jigme

Alicia Keys / Swizz Beats: Egypt

Gwen Stefani / Gavin Rossdale: Kingston James McGregor and Zuma Nesta Rock

Jamie /Jools Oliver: Buddy Bear Maurice AND Petal Blossom Rainbow AND Daisy Boo Pamela AND  (if that’s not enough) Poppy Honey Rosie

 Number one for “what were you thinking" celebrity names has to go to:

Frank Zappa / Gail Zappa: Dweezil, Ahmet Emuukha Rodan, Moon Unit and Diva Muffin

What damage have these names done to normal society? A few names really given to everyday children without the protection of a famous mummy include:

Winner and Loser (USA)

Lego and Google (Sweden)

Talula Does the Hula From Hawaii (New Zealand)

Superman (UK)

Speedy and Jazz (Germany)

Country governments have thankfully stepped in to alleviate the problem with banned names including:

Number 16 Bus Shelter, Fish and Chips, Lucifer, Duke, Messiah, Bishop, Baron, General, Judge, King, Mr, 89 C, D, I and T in New Zealand.

IKEA, Metallica, Veranda, Q, Superman, Metallica and Elvis, and Brfxxccxxmnpcccclllmmnprxvclmnckssqlbb11116 (pronounced “Albin” of course) in Sweden.

4Real in the UK

Chow Tow, which translates to Smelly Head in Malaysia

@ in China

    I am familiar with the podcasts and love to listen to them. The list mentioned here has a very good collection which people must listen. However, my personal favorite is Decode DC which reveals the intentions of political decisions and makes me aware of the inside politics behind a decision.

I believe that we should give good names to our children because this is what they carry for the rest of their lives.
