Gwyneth Paltrow gives birth to a boy

[cupcakes]

No name details. In fact no information at all hence no link.

I think moses is a good name - apple is rubbish - but I'm almost p'd off I didnt think of moses myself

I really like it.What on earth is embaressing about it?Names are a v individual personal thing I really like Chris and Gwyneth (not that I know them!)but they seem really likeable and good role models

I love the name Moses & it was on my list when expecting DS. DP wasn't so keen so it didn't make it.

I always though Moses was a black person's name. Dunno why, just did. Moses Jones. Moses Martin. Interesting. Thought they'd go for something more normal than Apple. Shame though. I rather liked Mung Bean.

actually I quite like the name Moses, and Apple isn't bad

Spidermama is quite right, I'd carp whatever they chose

Nowt wrong with Moses.

feel a bit bad for slagging them off now actually - its not a bad name i just like slagging off celebs because i am jealous!

i named my baby that on friday

Excellent choice poorme.
Don't listen to this bunch.

i like moses, dh surprised me by being v keen on apple. feel like moses maybe has a lot to live up to!

QoQ - i get the biblical ref, i just wondered whether they were religious people, as G seemed to value the biblical connotations of apple (makes me think more of a bag of granny smiths, tho, or an orchard!) than the bible.

we just like slagging celebs - the name is fine really!

poorme, all three of my boys have biblical names. Good choice.

dont feel happy now - crying and thinking it needs to be changed

poorme, didn't see your post.
congratulations!!
it's a cool name, & v unusual.
& you had one first - the martins are just copycats, right??

Poorme, it's a great name! and if you had him on Friday, remember it's day 4....often a bit tearful anyway

dont change it - crying is the hormones!

I went over time to register him he was born feb14th - took me that long to name him

Ah, my dad's name is Moses. Great name for a great dad.

poorme - some in my family gave me hell over ds's name (rufus), i stuck to it tho, as i loved it then & still do.
if moses is the name you chose, & love, then please don't change it!

its just the celebrity bit - the whole world thinking i named him after a celeb.............and then a glut of them

I like it!! My boy has a biblical name too!!

He owns the ark dontca know
