Check out the name(s) of Uma Thurman's baby girl.. That's going to take some learning to spell that!

"Rosalind Arusha Arkadina Altalune Florence Thurman-Busson, better known to family and friends as 'Luna'."

I agree all of the names are beautiful. However there are rather a lot of them..

If she is going to be known by friends and family as Luna i dont really understand why they didnt just call her Luna or Atalune at a push. I dont see the need for all the other names and then a completely different name to be known as Hmm

I think it's a shame they aren't going to use Rosalind, which is just gorgeous. More so than Luna IMO.

Sorry, guys, I absolutely hate the name!! Overtly and unnecessarily complex.

Luna is beautiful (as is Uma, the name I mean):why not just name her that, or give Altalune as her first name to create an easier NN?

Status name, methinks.

Florence is a rather incongruous choice in amongst that lot - very current and mainstream. It just somehow seems to belie their normalness/mundaneness, when they're trying rather hard to be all celebrity and ostentatious. Grin

I'm disappointed now that she's not called Wowsers.

I have a Luna! Uma, you are bonkers! But I love all the names.

Sorry, but one of her other step children is called Arpad? Arpad?

Arpad, sorry that to me sounds really really odd. Notepad, helipad, shagpad....and so on...

Arpad is her partner. Elle mc Phearson's ex ( and father of her 2 sons)

So, why not just call her Luna? Confused

Rosalind (and also Rosaline and Rosamund) are gorgeous. Far prettier than Luna!

Nilbyname, Arpad is a real name, it's Hungarian. I know a guy called it.

Indeed, notquite. She will always be Wowsers to me.

Stupid celebrity trying too hard with names again.

Rosalind is a lovely name, as it Luna, why she couldn't have just stuck to one of those I don't know.

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaargh!

Dd2 is Rosalind. How dare Uma nick my baby name. If she makes it 'popular' I will be as livid as The Bride!

Florence seems to be just tacked on at the end for no good reason. Makes it look like a child named by a committee with a chairman who really wanted to leave and get some lunch.

Hah. I thought from the thread title she had called it Wowsers.

Now that would be odd.
