Mariah Carey's twins' names

Slebs' are mad as a box of frogs when it comes to naming their children.

Nutters.

Where to start?

Moroccan Canon - North African weapon of war
Monroe Cannon - porn star

Mariah. Barking.

just think the names are so cruel and even the reasoning behind only giving he little girl one name ie mummy's only got one name so you can only have one. it just screams narcissistic mother , my daughter will not do better than me etc.

surely it's really important for twins to be treated the similarly from birth and to give them a different number of names each seems like a recipe for sibling rivalry.

i bet the beckhams are delighted , they surely can't beat morrocan and monroe on the "weirdometer" or can they .

just imagine hepburn audrey beckham .

Monroe would be passable for a boy b ut a bit daft for a girl. Still, at least it is a name. Moroccan is just stupid. It's cannabis.

Dire names, both of them. No idea why surnames or adjectives are cool now. And the Cannon surname makes it even worse! What is the matter with some people!

I have some friends, very nice sensible wealthy professionals about to name their ds 'Pace'. WTF! And the family isn't exactly known for being slim or active. Asking for a nickname of 'not much' or 'snail's' at school IMHO.

Harlow is a bit close to ,erm, Harlow for my liking. I was born there. It's shite.

Yes, what's wrong with just Scott Cannon, which go together really well. As for Monroe - that's just cruel....Monroe Cannon - like some sort of weapon used in World War One. I have posted about "wacky" names before, so my opinion isn't exactly fresh. Hope the children will have guts to change them by deed poll as soon as they are old enough. They sound like joke names picked when parents are drunk or stoned.

I hadn't even thought of how they go with the surname. Moroccan Cannon is bad.

I don't think MC and NC can understand that it would at least have made more sense linguistically to call him Morocco. I wish one of their vast entourage had had the nous to speak up. WON'T SOMEBODY PLEASE THINK OF THE CHILDREN?

Oh these are completely terrible names. Nothing nice about them at all. Stupid Mariah. Stupid Nick.

And yes, stupid Pete and Ashlee (as well as stupid mama and papa Simpson, for that spelling).

Oh Gawd. What is it with celebrity baby names? Can someone not tell them : For god's sake, you're not being 'original' or 'quirky' any more, everyone expects you to name your child something utterly stupid, why not confound expectation and name them John and Mary or something???

Stupid names if you ask me. Yeah, I may be bold, but I'm just saying what the kids will say in playground around these poor children......then again, they will be growing up alongside other celeb babies in celeb world so they'll live with their names quite happily I suppose....as long as they don't grow up to have real jobs in the real world.....Dr Moroccan Cannon? Yeah Right!

Very weird to have an Adjective as a name.

I can see having Rocco as a shortening or even Morocco as a name or Moroc but Moroccan is odd.

Can you imagine? - "Mom, what did you name me after?"
"The bedroom where your father asked me to marry him"

Being named after a bedroom???

Moroccan sounds like the next craze in pubic hair styling
Why do we have to give children surnames for forenames now?

How very Roc and Roe. Boom boom.

Ithankyou.

Ashlee Simpsons sons middle name is Mowgli? Was that not what the Gremlins were in the film?

Not only do the poor kids have to suffer their ridiculous names but also having a complete weirdo attention-seeker for a mum

Haha! Well I like Harlow! I know it's a place but I like the sound. I will NEVER use it though.

Apparently the little girl is named after Marilyn Monroe, so why not just chose Marilyn?

As for the boy being named after Mariah's favourite decor - words fail me. I suppose it's better than "Stencil" or "Limewash"

lolol paws know what u mean!!

I know a baby named Harlow. The parents aren't English. I was born in Harlow, and wish the place the very best, but honestly really it isn't somewhere you would generally wish to commemorate in a child's name.

I was expecting Mariah to pick more stupid names than what she has given her twins.
I expected Jordan names here.
I don't get either why she couldn't have called her daughter Marilyn -too ordinary I suppose
Good luck to her, she waited long enough for them.

LOL at Foofffy.

In the bizarre world of SlebLand those names aren't that outrageous.

Terrible, but not too outrageous.

I thought she'd go for something more cutesy and twee like Precious and Pavlova or summat.

Moroccan Scott makes him sound like one of those dodgy blokes down the pub.

Welsh Dave (knocked off cigs)
Fat Kev (Does the booze cruise)
Moroccan Scott (it's in his name)

They could be Mo-Mo!

She could shorten Monroe to Mo. Oh hang on, she could shorten Morocco to Mo too. Girl Mo and Boy Mo.
