When it comes to baby names, celebs love to push the envelope of normal and wholesome offspring monikers and instead favor the obscure, controversial, and just downright silly.
While there’s no shortage of absurd celeb baby names, we weigh in on some of the biggest humdingers out there.
Someone get Child Services on the phone….
15. “Tu”
While “Tu” is an odd choice, the real kicker is that the poor kid’s surname is “Morrow.”
Yup.
Someone actually named an infant “Tomorrow”…
(Rob Morrow & Debbon Ayer)
14. “Blue Ivy“
Music moguls Beyoncé & Jay Z clearly aren’t bent on tradition when naming their cubs. Their children all have quiet unusual names (others include “Sir” and “Rumi”).
(Beyoncé & Jay Z).
13. “North”
Naming your kid “North” when their surname is “West” sounds like someone lost a bet. Mom and Dad must really love the weather channel.
Either way, it’s pretty ridiculous.
(Kim Kardashian & Kanye West)
12. “Jermajesty”
No words….
(Jermaine Jackson & Alejandra Genevieve Oaziaza)
11. “Moxie CrimeFigher”
Does she actually fight crime, though?
This kid’s parents want her to be bullied at school.
*eyeroll*
(Penn Jillette & Emily Zolten)
10. “Apple”
Yeah, we get it – she’s the “apple of your eye.”.
Still a terrible name, though.
(Chris Martin & Gwyneth Paltrow)
9. “Raddix“
Allegedly the pair chose this name for their daughter after combining two words – “rad”, which is one of the couple’s favorite words, and a translation of “new beginning”.
Okaaay….
(Benji Madden & Cameron Diaz)
8. “Bronx Mowgli”
This nonsense name sounds like an urban sequel to The Jungle Book. Either way, it’s a terrible choice.
(Ashlee Simpson & Pete Wentz)
7. “Audio Science”
We wish we were joking.
Alas, no.
Apparently, the poor child’s folks wanted “words” and not a name for their kid, and somehow “Audio Science” seemed like the perfect one.
Right….
(Shannyn Sossamon & Dallas Clayton)
6. “Kyd”
Apparently, Mom and Dad couldn’t be bothered to deviate far from just referring to their kid as “kid.”
Who knows what inspired this clanger of a name, but allegedly the child in question isn’t a fan of it and insists on being called by his middle name, “Miller.”
We can’t imagine why….
(David Duchovny & Teá Leoni)
5. “Kal-El”
I mean, we like Superman too, but…
Dad is said to be a Superman, er, superfan, and insists on calling his first-born son Kal-El, after the Krypton name of the superhero.
Ouch.
(Nicolas Cage & Alice Kim)
4. “Mars”
No stranger to ridiculous baby names. Erykah Badu welcomed baby Mars into the world in 2009, adding to a growing number of head-scratcher monikers (her first two children are called “Puma” and “Seven”).
(Erykah Badu & Jay Electronica)
3. “Little Pixie Frou-Frou”
Now that’s mean.
Understandably, the British model has since dropped the “Little” and “Frou-Frou” parts of her name and goes by “Pixie Geldof.”
Wise decision.
(Bob Geldof & Paula Yates)
2. “Dusty Rose”
Isn’t that a paint color?
Either way, we imagine this child will likely “do a Pixie Geldof” and drop the first part of her name.
And we don’t blame her.
(Adam Levine & Behati Prinsloo)
1. “X Æ A-Xii”
At first, the world thought the baby name choice of Elon Musk and Grimes was a joke, but it appears that’s not the case.
This abomination is pronounced “Ex Ash A Twelve” and was supposedly inspired by the couple’s favorite aircraft.
Alrighty then….
(Elon Musk & Grimes)
