Celebrity baby names.

[LouisaPipSqueak]

I absolutely love celebrity baby names, few recent ones that I feel us ‘normal’ folks could use as well..

Mexx
Colby
Rox
Ace
Sunday etc

But where/how do they find/think of these names without putting random letters together and making up a name?

I mustn’t have much of an imagination but no matter where I look these names don’t even come up, especially on rare/unique baby name sites, I wouldn’t never even thought of them! What gets you thinking?

Those names aren;t really my cup of tea - I'm rather traditional and old fashioned I expect ! But if you like them, go for it.
Sunday is obviously just a day - so any other weekdays or months or seasons would probably fit your bill. Or names to do with weather etc.

I'm not keen on Mexx - it sounds like a construction toy ! And Ace is like Ace Ventura pet detective.

What about Pax ? - It means peace.

I think all names tend to come around and go around, some names might seem unusual when the first person picks them, but then others use them too and you get whole classes full of Jaylins or Pagans or Apples

I've taught children names Elvis and Blue and Emerson (quite like that last one)

I’m not a lover of surnames used as first names for girls
Thinking of piper
Harper
Taylor
Cameron

This probably goes right against the grain of PC thinking but that my opinion
I like traditional names too.

I love them too! I guess they've just heard a nice sounding word and thought, hey, could pass that off!!

I love Sunday, I definitely think this could be passed off as a regular name.

I've always said if I was a celeb I like Waterloo & Midnight as girl names. Just came to me one day

Those names aren't my cup of tea at all. Didn't Nicole Kidman call her child Sunday Rose (all you can think is Sunday Roast).
Mexx sounds like an engineering company to me and 'Ace' is what we used to say growing up in the Birmingham suburbs to describe something being great.

Gosh hadn’t thought of any of that. Glad you’ve all said it. I think I just like the fact I’ve never heard them before and are very different and sound like a proper name unlike Apple or Sunday Roast! 😂
I just don’t know how these people think of these names in the first place.

thunderandsun - Waterloo and Midnight are all right. What you'd end up with, though, is a Loo and a Midders.

People never think of how their kids' names are going to be abbreviated and yelled by their mates across the shopping centre!

So true Zaphod - someone I knew years ago had a Nicola and a Bridget - and yes they were known as Knickers and Britches

I like Pox.

Mexx is a clothing company
Sunday Rose will never be the same again I can smell a roast dinner just looking at it.

Pox is the best ever
