If you could give your child a crazy celebrity name, what would it be?
For example, Nicolas Cage named his son Kal-El Cage. Jason Lee named his daughter Pilot Inspektor Lee.

I'd name my son Derby Mau-Mau Voltaire Technetium.

Have at it!

2. Not quite as crazy

7. Thank you.
My parents were ok w/ it. They quickly warmed up to the name. Of course, my dad became really excited when I named her after his grandmother instead. Some thought I was stupid and others thought I was pretentious(they pointed out that she would be singled out by every jr. high and high school English teacher wanting to know if she was named after someone famous).
Her father was a total d*ck about it. He hated it. Doesn't matter because he didn't get the name he wanted either.

6. Exactly who it's after.
One of my favorites. Alot of people around here (in RL) thought it was insane. I had one friend who backed me up all the way-he was working on his masters in Literature and thought it was a fantastic idea to name my child this.

8. A funny one
My husband's college roommate's last name is "Wilde".

When he and his wife sent out birth announcements for their first son they joked that they were going to name him "Bjorn Toby" but decided against it. HAHA

12. How could you leave out Moon Unit Zappa?
Which I happen to think is a fantastic name.

If I were to have a son, his celebrity name would be Papa Razzi. Or maybe "He who shall not be named"

If I were to have a daughter, she would be known far and wide as "The Girl With The Sun In Her Head" (after an Orbital song).


If I really wanted to be cruel, I would name my son Ronald (seeeing as my last name is the same as a certain "restaurant" that clears down acres and acres and acres of Amazon rainforest to feed their cows).
