The late Steve Irwin chose this name for his darling daughter. Now that she’s following in her father’s footsteps will we meet more girls answering to this one?

Sunday Summary: 7/12/09
I spent Saturday afternoon at a kid-friendly baby shower, trying not to grill the expectant mom about baby names. (They’re not finding out the gender, and they’re not sharing names in advance. Torture!) But among the small guests? A pint-sized Zora, named after the author.
In other name news:
I don’t think the Mostly Cajun blogger and [...]

Welcome Paloma Louise!
Okay, she ain’t a Brangelina babe or a sis for Suri. But even if Ugly Betty’s Ana Ortiz can probably hit the Whole Foods without being mobbed by adoring fans, she’s a superstar amongst celeb baby namers.
‘Cause Ana and her husband, musician Noah Lebenzon, have named their firstborn Paloma Louise.

Welcome Marion and Tabitha!
According to People Magazine and Celebrity Baby Blog, James Wilkie is a big brother! Sarah Jessica Parker and Matthew Broderick have welcomed twin daughters.
I’m eagerly awaiting news of their names – as if growing up with Carrie Bradshaw and Ferris Bueller isn’t cool enough, I think the couple did a fine job naming their firstborn.
If [...]

Welcome Helena Grace
I’ll admit, I’ve been waiting for Gossip Girl’s Kelly Rutherford to dazzle us with an exotic choice. Her firstborn is called Hermès Gustaf Daniel, after all.
