Whether you have always had an extensive list of baby names in your phone’s Notes app (same!) or you’re due next week and still searching for the perfect fit, choosing a name for your new addition is a big decision for parents. Maybe you have a meaningful family name you’re hoping to incorporate, or you’re set on choosing a name based on zodiac signs, the possibilities are truly endless. But if you’re looking for a unique baby name, can we suggest taking inspiration from celebrity baby names?
Our favorite public figures are no stranger to making a statement or setting trends, and when it comes to their children, they do not disappoint. Gwyneth Paltrow rocked the world when she named her daughter Apple in 2004, and since then, unusual celerity baby names have been almost expected. Fans eagerly waited for Kylie Jenner to announce her son’s name for months (it turned out to be Aire, BTW – a perfect complement to big sister Stormi). Clearly, kind of weird celebrity baby names hold a place in our hearts.
That said, other celebs have gone the quasi-Victorian baby name route, sticking to classics like Malcom and Matilda. Really, celeb baby names are all over the map – and therefore are rife with inspiration to glean.
So, if you’re looking for something fresh, trendy, and maybe a little unusual, check out these interesting celebrity baby boy names and celebrity baby girl names to use as inspiration. And don’t worry, we included the celeb parents who are responsible for dreaming up this cute, off-beat, dreamy baby names.
