Baby Jolie-Pitt born

[sleeping mud]

Angelina Jolie has given birth to a girl.

[Alice The Goon]

Thanks, Brad! Good job!


hehe


I find it weird how just a little over a year ago, he was married to Jennifer Aniston. Now he has three kids with another women. Those Hollywood types move fast.

[Alice The Goon]

oops, "woman", not women. He doesn't move that fast.

[sleeping mud]

The name is supposedly Shiloh.

[Hal Briston]

Figures. We'll never get that extra holiday now....they'll just combine it with Memorial Day.

[lorene]

Here (http://www.irishexaminer.com/breaking/story.asp?j=151261680&p=y5yz6zz6x&n=151262289&x=) is the story.

Anyone else humming Neil Diamond?

[LiveOnAPlane]

Yes, I am.

"Shiloh when I was young,
I used to call your name.
When no one else would come,
Your bodyguards always came,
And beat the crap out of me."

[Mahaloth]

My mind is dancing with visions of a great celebrity-child party where Apple, Suri, Moxie Crime Fighter, Shiloh, and Grier dance in a circle, holding hands.

Ooh, joined by Pilot Inspektor Lee (http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0005134/bio), Tu Morrow (http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0001555/bio), all 5 George Foremans (http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0286040/bio), Kal-el Cage (http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000115/bio) and Jermajesty Jackson (http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0413659/bio). What a swell group!

And then they all head down to the courthouse and change their names to Ann, Mary, Susan, Kathy and Linda.
:D

[LiveOnAPlane]

Well, it could be worse (Not that there's anything wrong with that!)

In the Marshall Islands, my wife regulary did birth certificates with names like Cinderella Lace and Rocket Brain.

Completely diff cultures, though, not trying to be snarky.

[Rachael Rage]

My mind is dancing with visions of a great celebrity-child party where Apple, Suri, Moxie Crime Fighter, Shiloh, and Grier dance in a circle, holding hands. I forget, which one is Grier?

Much as I couldn't give a shit about celebrity baby-making, I can't help but find it amusing that I met and talked to Angelina Jolie when she was pregnant, though it hadn't been announced yet. The most talked-about fetus in tabloid history was right there!

[Antigen]

Apple, Suri, Moxie Crime Fighter, Shiloh Nouvel, Grier, Pilot Inspektor, Tu, Kal-el, and Jermajesty
I can totally see these celebrity kiddies getting together in 20 years and making babies of their own, and naming them crazy things like "Ann" or "James". Imagine the media freakout!

Funny you should ask. Matter of fact, last night I was ruminating as to whether Neil should want, run from, or demand, a paternity test :)

[JRDelirious]

I wonder what Moon Unit and Dweezil Zappa think of this later generation...

[vibrotronica]

This child will be genetically superior, super-rich, and famous from moment zero.

I, for one, welcome our new super-sexy overlord.

[Antigen]

I know it's really, really mean, but part of me is hoping that the kid's got webbed feet, crossed eyes, and a hunchback.

[SkipMagic]

Since there were two such baby threads going, I merged the two (and kept the better of the two titles).

*sings* "Take the flame inside you, burn and burn below..."

[Gala Matrix Fire]

I forget, which one is Grier?

Grier is Brooke Shields' second daughter.

I apologize for the lame title.

[lezlers]

I can't believe some of these names. Suri is a little strange, but okay. Shiloh? Eh.

But Moxie Crimefighter? Pilot Inspektor? These parents need to be smacked senselss. By their children. Repeatedly. Or maybe be forced to swap names for a good 20 years, see how they like having the name of a friggin' comic book character.

I thought parents were supposed to love their children??

Well, let's not be too hard on the celebs. Every day I'll read some story in the Times about an anonymous family involved in some kind of mischief or hijinks, and their kids' names are generally something like Brikayla, Affrika, Bayelie, Love Bible, Parris France . . .

[Ludy]

Well in Pitt and Jolie's defence they actually didn't name the kid themselves. They got someone else to do it for them.

[mobo85]

If we're talking about weird baby names, we can't forget Pirate Davis. (http://people.aol.com/people/articles/0,19736,1041648,00.html) Arrr!

What a swell group!

Don't forget to invite Moses and Bluebell Madonna, either!

[even sven]

I don't get it. I've known more than a couple of Shiloh's.

[Ducktail]

Someone's already pointed this out somewhere (I haven't been avidly reading the forums in quite a few months) but I'd like to take a minute to remind everyone that Suri means 'pickpocket' in Japanese.

[Ducktail]

Sorry...should have checked before I posted...someone has probably already mentioned the above-mentioned fact, it's just too bizarre not to be on SD.

[LavenderBlue]

And then they all head down to the courthouse and change their names to Ann, Mary, Susan, Kathy and Linda.
:D

And then they all burn their parents in effigy.

:D

[elfkin477]

I don't get it. I've known more than a couple of Shiloh's.

Male or female? Or canine (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0689835825/sr=8-1/qid=1148865809/ref=pd_bbs_1/104-5843616-4986321?%5Fencoding=UTF8)?

Or city? (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shiloh%2C_Hardin_County%2C_Tennessee)

[lezlers]

I don't get it. I've known more than a couple of Shiloh's.

Just like to reiterate, I see nothing wrong with Suri or Shiloh. A bit unusual, but at least they sound like real-person names, not made-up comic book characters.

I mean, comon', Moxie Crimefighter?

[ninevah]

Don't forget to invite Moses and Bluebell Madonna, either!

Ooh, and here's another addition to the party - actress Shannyn Sossaman's kid, Audio Science.

[pesch]

In Moxie Crimefighter's defense, the father (Penn Jillette, the magician), said that nobody remembers middle names anyway.

We chose her middle name because when she's pulled over for speeding she can say, `But officer, we're on the same side,"' Jillette explained. "`My middle name is CrimeFighter."'

[foolsguinea]

Nothing wrong with Shiloh. Or Moses. And Tigra tells me I have to say there's nothing wrong with Grier, except it's usually Greer.

Just because your little ethnic group doesn't use a name, doesn't mean it isn't a traditional name.

[Little Plastic Ninja]

*sings* "Take the flame inside you, burn and burn below..."

Somebody else had that vision, then? :D

Who killed Rowan Morrison?

[Kythereia]

Somewhere, Jen Aniston is knocking back another shot...

[Eve]

Just because your little ethnic group doesn't use a name, doesn't mean it isn't a traditional name.

If somewhere there is a country full of people named Moon Unit and Moxie Crimefighter, I so want to spend my next vacation there.

(Since when is "pretentious prat" an ethnic group?)

[Equipoise]

I love the name Shiloh. If I'd had a girl I would have named her Shyla (combination of Shiloh and Layla) but I had a boy.

I think Moxie is a very cool name too.

I'm very happy for Pitt and Jolie. Not that I follow either closely, but from what I've picked up from osmosis, Pitt has been looking to be a family man for years, and seems like he would make a very fun, down-to-earth father. Jolie completely turned herself around from being creepy/witchy to being a responsible, caring human being right before she adopted her son. I think anyone who makes fun of these two doesn't know enough about them. For celebrities, you can't get much better in the human being, citizen of the earth, department.

Just the fact that they had their child in Namibia shows some pretty hard-core scruples, bringing badly-needed attention to a country that Jolie fell in love with while filming Beyond Borders, when she could have stayed all chushy and pampered in Los Angeles. I love how Namibia refused to grant visas to foreign "journalists" unless approved by the couple. To hell with the paparazzi. And I just heard that Pitt/Jolie gave the country $300,000 to show their gratitude, which will (according to the article I read) be used for maternity wards and child health issues. It all sounds good on the page, and I'm still enough of an optimist to believe that it all might be true.

There are so many Hollywood couples I can't stand, that it's nice to actually like this couple.

[Yookeroo]

I approve of all these weird names. The world doesn't need another John or Jennifer. Give me more Moxie Crimefighters and Tu Morrows.

[singular1]

Let's not forget Paula Yates' kids - Fifi Trixibelle, Peaches Honeyblossom, Pixie, and Heavenly Hiraani Tiger Lily.

[gigi]

The Jillettes' new son is named Zolten.

[Labtrash]

I was actually hoping the baby would wait until June 6th, for the old 06/06/06 birthday.

And for the record, NO baby is cuter than Labtrash Jr., born 02/02/06.

Shiloh will look like a freakish mutant* (In my eyes, anyway) when her bazillion dollar photo finally gets snapped.

*No offense intended to any freakish mutants out there.

[Rachael Rage]

I approve of all these weird names. The world doesn't need another John or Jennifer. Give me more Moxie Crimefighters and Tu Morrows.Hear, hear!

Some friends of mine named their daughter Maxine Velvet, which is about as good of a name as you can get, IMO.

[irishgirl]

At least Shiloh means something, and it goes well with Maddox and Zahara. I mean, it would be weird if the Jolie-Pitt kids were called Maddox, Zahara and Ann...at least they're all a little unusual (but perfectly sensible) names.

[Xema]

Am I alone in thinking that making a kid's name match that of a bloody battle might not be inspired?

[vibrotronica]

More people died at the Battle of Shiloh than in the Revolutionary War, the War of 1812, and the Mexican War combined.

[Antigen]

The world doesn't need another John or Jennifer.
But... I can stay, since I'm already here, right?

[Shirley Ujest]

Let's not forget Paula Yates' kids - Fifi Trixibelle, Peaches Honeyblossom, Pixie, and Heavenly Hiraani Tiger Lily.


I came in here to mention Fifi, Peach, Pixie and Heavenly Hiraani Tiger Lily.


Richard Geer named his son after his father, Homer. Which I approve of.

Ann Hecht named her son Homer, with the last name of Lafoon. Which I don't approve of. the poor kid.

Julia Roberts two are Hazel and Phinneaus, which I really like ( except it is Phineaus.)


I can't remember shit, but celebrity baby names stick with me.

[elfkin477]

The Jillettes' new son is named Zolten.

People are up in arms about Britney being pregnant again since her son's only eight months old. Moxie is only 11 months older than baby Zolten! I like Moxie, but I think they ought to have gone with Zorak for the boy's name :p

[Yookeroo]

But... I can stay, since I'm already here, right?

I should've said that the world already has the perfect amount of Johns and Jennifers, no need to add more. :D

Yes, maybe I don't know much about her other than what she says in interviews. She said she would never break up a marriage because of what happened to her parents marriage, yet she did and got pregnant with the man before the divorce was even final. Prior to that relationship she broke up an engaged couple.

Her charity work is all well and good but I can't help but feel that part of the reason for it is to repair her karma. I also feel like the reason they chose Namibia wasn't because of some special love of the place but the fact that they could keep the paparrazi out.


Frankly, I am just a bit tired of all the celebrity baby hoo-haa. So they can procreate and name their babies weird things? Wow, they're just like us! :rolleyes:

She did Laura Dern, who's happily married and has a kid now, a huge favor. And
Jennifer Aniston, who didn't want kids while Pitt has been aching for kids for years, seems pretty happy with Vince Vaughn.

Her charity work is all well and good but I can't help but feel that part of the reason for it is to repair her karma.

So? Does that negate what she does now? Should she have stayed weird and witchy and useless because it's no use to change for the better?

From what I've read she fell in love with the country when she was filming a movie there. She could have chosen anywhere to have her baby. And what's wrong with wanting to keep the scummy paparrazi out of their hair? Paparazzi are nearly as low as child molesters and deserve no consideration. Hooray for Namibia.

Frankly, I am just a bit tired of all the celebrity baby hoo-haa. So they can procreate and name their babies weird things? Wow, they're just like us! :rolleyes:

I just think they're a nice couple. I'd think the same if any couple I liked had a baby they truly wanted and could take care of. It's certainly not Pitt and Jolie's fault that OTHER people/magazines/entertainment news shows/OP starters are making a hoo-haa about their child. They tried staying away from publicity in Namibia and you don't like that either. They can't win. Sheesh.

According to Jennifer that was all a lie, she wanted kids.

So? Does that negate what she does now? Should she have stayed weird and witchy and useless because it's no use to change for the better?

I don't care if she changes or not. I don't have to believe she's done it all out of the goodness of her heart if I don't want to. You can't make me!

Bolded comments are mine.

Really, I don't care what they want people to think of their reasons for everything and I doubt very much that they care what I think. I am simply expressing my opinion of the couple just as you and others here have done.

[Amaranta]

I'm happy for them.

It really pisses me off that Bennifer, the whole Jennifer Lopez/Ben Affleck monster that whored themselves out to the press, gave awkward kisses to each other every time photographers yelled to, shot music videos and movies together, and basically overexposed themselves were treated the same way in the tabloids as Brad and Angelina.

These two made an honest effort to avoid the press and the spotlight. It's not their fault people are sick of them, it's the losers buying celebrity tabloids.
