Celebrity Baby Names: What if YOU were a star?

Boy: Casimir Atlas Daire, and Girl: Belphoebe Clio Maeve.

Definitely something traditional! I’d be one of those celebrity moms that would try to give my kids the most normal life possible. So I’d probably stick to my original choices:

Isabelle Aurora Grace “Bella/Belle”
Caleb Elias Joseph “Caleb/Cal”

If I wanted to go even a bit more mainstream (which I wouldn’t mind doing), I would probably do something like:

Olivia Wren Camille “Liv”
Samuel Elias Henry “Sam” (or something like Joshua or Henry instead)

If I was loopy when I named them, I would probably do something a bit GPish like Sonata for a girl, or Jules for a boy.

Twins would still be Isabelle and Caleb.

Daphne Florentine and Fergus Francisco
Twins: Pip & Kit

Well, as a nobody I prefer more unique names (like Amelie Margot and Callum Journey) to help them stand out, but I feel like as a celeb I would like to keep my kiddies out of the spotlight and give them a more under the radar name (like Grace Elizabeth or Charles Eugene).

Girl: Ravenna Marigold Rue
Boy: Lachlan Alistair Achilles

Twins: Junia and Tiberius

I have to say, if I were a star I think I would choose a name that was a bit more rarefied than one I’d choose for a child who’d live a normal life, with the idea that my child should stand apart from the crowd. So I might choose something like Persephone or Blaise that I really love but would feel was too outrageous for real life.

Hermione Rowena Poet and Percival St. John Vale.

Twins: Belsante Susannah Pomme and Ambrose Leander Ptolemy.

@Pam I know a Persephone and Blaise they are both toddlers and completely average.

Sebastian Viggo and Grier Hermione

Twins: Barnaby and Imogen

Sparrow Ivy and Hugo Dean

Poet Elise and Lachlan Vale

Sib set 1:
Jamison Rebel Cash (Reb)
Evanna Caroline Hope (Evvy)

Sib set 2:
Maxon Skåndar (Max)
Andromeda Anneke (Andy)

Twins: Jeordie Lafayette (Jeordie) And Cora Soleil (Cora)

I would definitely do 2 MNs! It feels very celebrity to me.

Girl: Feather Juniper Lyric

Boy: Talon Django Grey

B/B Twins: Kai Damien Sequoia & Priestly Asher Quinn
G/G Twins: Arabia Parker Jade & Persia Blue Sloane
B/G Twins: Diesel Carter Quinn & Gypsy Delilah Sloane

Obviously I was destined to be a celebrity LOL!

Girl: Xadie Ariadne
Boy: Ryker Zakeriache

G/G Twins:
Cindra Lunette &
Elrose Dawn

I think if you are D-list you have to be a bit more wacko (Bronx Mowgli). If you’re an A-lister then you can be more refine and a “trendsetter” (Ava Elizabeth).

A-list: Etta Beatrix Lucy or Baxter Theodore Penn
D-list: Ophelia Galaxy Starling or Hiero Axton Thane

Ok I just made those up… Neither is particularly wacko or stylish. Will think harder for more “out there” names.

Girl: Ila View (I Love You)
Boy: Ilo View (I Love You)

Girl: Genevieve Blythe
Boy: Sullivan Rhys

Celebs are trendsetters…they can choose a once mundane name (like Mabel) and make it sound unique, unusual, or modern. I don’t think my tastes would change if I were famous…but I’d be more willing to use more daring choices…because I’d also be a trendsetter. For that reason:
Boys= Webster, Asher, Aubrey, Beau, Nathaniel, Tiernan.
Girls= Alouette, Sinead, Hazel, Louella, Amabel, Dorothy.

@Pam — I’m planning on using Persephone, I know a recently born baby name Persephone and I know a little boy named Blaise…I think he’s 9 now.

I think my name choices are significantly unusual enough to work for a celebrity kid so I’d keep my original choices.

Damien Quillon and Persephone Elysia (Quill & Sephy)
Twins would probably just be those 2 ^_^

I’m super conservative in my naming choices but if I were a celeb than I’d go ahead and use names that dh and I liked but considered to bold for us. For a boy – Cyprian. For a girl – Julienne. Still very tame choices for a celeb.

If I were a celebrity having a baby, I would probably take more creative license than I might as an everyday mom. I imagine myself trying to strike a balance between attention-grabbing, vintage, and more ordinary.

Boys: D’artagnan Earl, Solomon Bernard, Leonardo Stillman

Girls: Ariadne Electa, Sapphira Odette, Hermione Thisbe

If I were a celebrity (and therefore, possibly married to someone much quirkier than my husband or wealthy and powerful enough so that I didn’t have to compromise with him!) I might have the cajones to use one of the few girls names that I know I’ll never get to use in “real life:” Althea, Juniper or Ever. My boys names tend to run a little more conservative anyway, so that probably wouldn’t change. For twins, I like the idea of one quirky and one traditional, so I might use the following combos:
BB: Elliot and Grady
BG: Henry and Juniper
GG: Iris and Romy

For the most part, I lean towards names that are generally recognizable and easy to pronounce, but if I were a celebrity, I would be more likely to go for something more unusual. For example, when I lived in Scotland for half a year, I fell in love with the name Eilidh (sounds like Hailey without the H). Here in the U.S., very few people would know how to pronounce it (they would probably pronounce it “eyelid”), so I could never seriously consider it. If an American celebrity chose this name for their daughter, it’s likely that the name would become more recognizable and people would learn to pronounce it. I would also consider using a name like Lark as a first name, which I currently would only consider as a middle name.

Daughter: Ewing Emma
Son: Colin Phineas “Finn”
Twins: Poppy Juniper & Maysilee Pauline

If I was a celebrity, I would definitely go for D’Artagnan because of Logan Lerman’s amazing role in “The Three Musketeers.” But in real life, I would use Aria (like from my fave show PLL) because I loved that name even before Pretty Little Liars came out. And I also love the name Kalyn, (they don’t mention it in this video) an 18 year old girl in “Big Rich Texas.”

I think it’s silly the way some of you think. “Normal” people are just as special as celebrities. If you want to name your daughter Poppy or Persephone, that’s not too out there… you should do it! Choose your ultimate favorite name regardless, and treat your child as though they’re going to be special. I guess that’s why we get so many Isabellas and Jacobs…

So hard to narrow it down!

Girls:
Dagmara Claire
Frazier Leonie
Fucshia Elliott

Boys:
Dougray Leopold
Humphrey Bartholomew

Twins:
G/G: Tuesday Petunia and Temperley Clementine
G/B: Zetinna Leola and Zeppelin Louis
B/B: Walt Christopher and Oscar “Ozzy” Nathaniel

I would keep the same names as I do now because I’m not afraid to use a name just because it’s a little odd. I agree completely with what nosamanthas said, just go for it!

I already have of beat taste, so i might end up on “worst baby names list” but hey who cares.

Girl: October Clove
Boy: Percy Edwin

B/G twins: Juliet Jeanne Marie, Duncan Richard (subtle Shakespeare theme)

I’d never pass up a good excuse to use my favourite crazy names! And being a celebrity sounds like a pretty good excuse to me!

Boys:
Atlas Fane
Tempest Sheridan (or Sheridan Tempest)
Arden Vancouver

Girls:
Remedy Isis
Melchiorra Eve
Laverna Adeline

My 4 yr old son really wanted to name our new baby girl Spygirl and he persists in calling her that. I’ve said if we were celebrities maybe we could have pulled it off! Ha. Seriously though for a girl I might go with Annabette, Maighdlin or Madlenka, or Flavia. For a boy maybe Salinger (nn Sal). I would actually use Annabette or Sal in real life so I guess I should go with one of my more ethnic names or Spygirl as a celeb!

Calliope Lyra
Theodore Ezra

Not too crazy, really, but very symmetrical….that wasn’t actually on purpose

I’d use the same names I’d choose as a non-famous person. Many of the names I like are very commmon, others are more unusual. I would be fine with using a more unusual choice ss a non-celebrity, and if I were a celebrity, I’d also be fine with using a common name. Regular people are choosing more and more uncommon, “out there” names these days (note the Persephones mentioned in these posts!)- you don’t need to be a celebrity to do that. If I were a celebrity, my child and I would already have plenty of attention, and would not need to choose an oddball name to get more.

Names I like for girls are Anna, Sylvie, Ariana, Amabel,Annabel, Adrienne, Adela, Ivy (not Blue!), Lily, Alexa, Seren, Carys. Ciara, Aislinn, Genevieve. Probably would choose one of those or another favorite – they are not all coming into my head right now.

Boys: Ethan (my 17-year-old), Ciaran, Nicholas, Ryan, Flynn, Finn, Thomas, Owen, Ian – I’m sure there are more. For boys, I don’t think I like names that are really out there, but I’m sure there are exceptions.

I’d probably go for something quite out there, just because,well….I could.

Girl: Persephone Lavender (Sephy)
Boy: Willoughby Caspian (Will)

Twins (B/G)(more normal!): Edmund Fairfax Byron and Georgiana Cosima Violet

I would Use the same names i have picked out right now.
for a girl: Jocelyn
for a Boy: Tristan

I’d definitely do something a little more edgy or unique. Something like these:

Cash Barnaby for a baby boy.
Paloma Rue for a baby girl.

and for twins I would name them:

Cash Barnaby and Rue Paloma (I think it flows better that way lol)

I’d probably go in a more creative direction if I were in the spotlight. I’d probably go for my “guilty pleasure” list.

Boys: Cato, Max, Rafe, Sebastian

Girls: Hermione, Sarabella, Clove, January

I love this video! I ADORE The Hunger Games and Pretty Little Liars! Aria and almost all the HG names have been favourites for a LONG time! I happy for the recognition but a little sad for their uniqueness to go away and they aren’t really that underwraps anymore.Anyways, if I were famous I would have a dramatic yet familiar name! Like… Evangeline Primrose(someday I am using this as a middle)or maybe something sweet!
Honestly, I don’t think my taste in names would change if I became a star. I would use a name I love like everybody else does.

Girl: Maeve Isabella Quinn
Boy: Yani Ismael Harlan

I don’t think those names are too out there but if I were to name my kids names that may be considered out there they’d be named

Girl: Henna Sullivan Rae
Boy: Cadeau Alexander James

I’m pretty sure I’d stay the same. I’ve gone through a lot of names and I don’t think I would ever want to use anything that isn’t my top name for a girl. My boy I’m pretty flexible on, but if it’s my choice he’d stay the same as well. I’d name them (individually or as twins): Lucy Willow and Felix Douglas. Douglas is a family name and probably doesn’t have the best flow, but eh, I love it. Flix and Lu are the most intuitive nicknames for me .

I’d probably stay the same. My favorites right now are River Iolo nn Rio and Indigo Zinnia Grace nn Indie or India.

I’d like to think that the most self-involved and self-indulgent parts of me (which would be fed by my stardom and my hangers-on) would veer into overly romantic, fussy literary names.

I’m thinking Heathcliff and Andromeda.

Okay, I would do a mixture:

Louisa Angharad Jane
George Thomas Archibald

Twins: Philip Torquil and Jennet Tamsin

If I was famous I think I would want to shield my kids as much as possible so I would give them a non-controversial, non-standout name. I think Sarah would be less recognisable than Shiloh to the paparazzi mags. Wouldn’t it be awful to have the whole world commenting on your ‘bad’ taste! I feel for the celeb namer.

Orchid Isla and Zinc Alexander

I don’t think it would sway me but I might go to the more unique side of my list.
Girl: Auden Brielle
Boy: Kaleb Quinn

Girl would be Pixie Angelina.
Boy would be Romeo Zachariah.
Twin girls would be Pixie Angelina and Vixen Halo.
Twin boys would be Romeo Zachariah and Jackdaw Blaise.
Twins a boy & a girl would be Vixen Halo & Jackdaw Blaise.

Girl: Poppy Lonan Marie
Boy: Leland Benjamin Kick
Twins: Bodhi Neil & Tobias Kope

Girl: Poppy Marlo
Boy: Emilian Maxwell
Twins: Cruz and Gatsby.

I think that my choices would stay the same either way. As a “normal” parent, I’m choosing names that would be great if my children choose to be famous or exceptional in the average world. But here are our favorites:
Boys: Weston, Gideon, Griffin, Dashiell,and Sebastian.
Girls: Penelope, Beatrix, Harlow, Haven, and Lucie.

My sister’s current girls choices sound famous too: Valentina and Seraphina.

If I had to pick twins:
g/g: Penelope and Daphne (Greek theme)
b/b: Sebastian and Gideon
b/g: Gideon and Harlow (just for fun)

I’d probably name them

January June
Dallas Sky
Indian Summer

I would probably sill go with the names I already have picked out.
G: Yvaine Evangelina
Drucilla Izabelle
Remington Esmeralda(Remmi)

B: Percy Eugene
Nicholas Drew(Nicky)
Sparling Nathaniel

BG: Percy Eugene & Aurora Rosalie
BB: Paris Jedidiah & Hector Phillip
GG: Yvaine Aurora & Kelyn Gwynithe

Woah! a little late for this blog! But I would use my guilty pleasure name…

Daughter:
Indigo Tallulah Feather

Son:
Ptolmey MacKenzie Oak

Twins:
G/G: Romilly Dahlia Park and Hermione Waverly Sloane
B/B: Percival Thatcher Jay and Hamish Phineas Frost
G/B: Ophelie Sylvia Vienna and Severus Zachariah Janeiro

I’d use the same names as I would now.
