Just been watching 'The Lie' on STV and one of the questions was something like 'is North West the child of whoever'. I thought that that was the lie but apparently it isn't Shock
Any more ridiculous baby names (celebrity or not)

Didn't see the programme, but yes North West is a real baby name. Kanye West's child. Bloody stupid name, but there you go.

TequilaMockingbirdy · 05/05/2014 20:29

That's Kanye West's kid isn't it. Awful name.

I know, its a silly name. And apparently her nickname is Nori which is just as bad. Tbh Id have much respect for them if her name was, infact, something like Jane, and they just use North for the Meeja, you know, to keep somethings sacred.

swooosh · 05/05/2014 20:31

It's grown on me actually..Blush

ThinkIveBeenHacked · 05/05/2014 20:32

bear Grylls kids are Jesse (normal) Huckleberry (odd) and Marmaduke (just fucking daft)

Mrsjayy · 05/05/2014 20:34

jamie olivers son is buddy bear thats kinda daft

WanderingAway · 05/05/2014 20:36

I like Nori but North is just strange.

Mrsjayy · 05/05/2014 20:45

kanye and KIm probably thought it was realy clever and original but it is silly

TaliZorahVasNormandy · 05/05/2014 20:49

Some sleb called their kid Audioscience,

or Pilot Inspektor.

Do these people not realise their children will be adults one day.

Mrsjayy · 05/05/2014 20:51

OH I know who that is but i cant remember who Blush

BigRedBall · 05/05/2014 20:52

What about Katie price's daughter Princess Tiiaamii?

BigRedBall · 05/05/2014 20:53

Or the geldof sisters have pretty weird names too. I only realised after peaches died how strange their names are.

RhondaJean · 05/05/2014 20:55

It's been going on for years though

Dweezil and moon unit anyone?

Zowie Bowie...

Nolan Dolan

I think north west is pretty awful but perhaps they're Hitchcock fans.

I do like the more hippie names though Grin

I remain unconvinced by apple however.

UriGeller · 05/05/2014 20:56

I really like it. North was on our shortlist, (although for a boy). Its very strong and has more gravitas than those Daisy Boo, Huckleberry, Bear type names. She's a gorgeous little thing too.

SpottieDottie · 05/05/2014 20:56

It could have been worse, it could have been North North West.....

Mrsjayy · 05/05/2014 20:56

David bowies son zowie changed his name to joe Grin

UriGeller · 05/05/2014 20:57

Maybe she was conceived on a dirty weekend in Blackpool?

RhondaJean · 05/05/2014 20:57

Ooh jermajesty wins bonkers name!

google says Jason lee's son is Pilot inspektor if that helps, I have no idea who jason lee it,

RhondaJean · 05/05/2014 20:58

North would be fine for a boy. I quite like that.

But then if I had sons they would be Rio and Hunter and DH would have divorced me

Mrsjayy · 05/05/2014 20:58

Ooh jermajesty wins bonkers name!

Is that not jermaines jacksons son I have not clicked

Mrsjayy · 05/05/2014 20:59

Oh i know a litle boy called Hunter

Knackeredmum13 · 05/05/2014 21:00

MrsJayy I think you mean Duncan ?

clam · 05/05/2014 21:00

I thought David Bowie's son (Zowie) was now Duncan Jones?

BigRedBall · 05/05/2014 21:02

Isn't Jason Lee, Earl in my name is Earl? Or Dave in the Chipmunk movies
