Baby Jolie-Pitt born

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

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

The Jillettes’ new son is named Zolten.

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.

Hear, hear!

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

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.

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

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

But… I can stay, since I’m already here, right?

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.

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 :stuck_out_tongue:

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

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.
