I’ll admit that I probably wouldn’t have posted news about Bachelorette couple Trista and Ryan Sutter. Except. They named their daughter Blakesley Grace. She certainly fits in with Avery, Delaney and the like. But I still find Blakesley rather odd. Apparently it is an Old English place name and legitimate surname choice – but does […]
READ MORE >>Starbaby News: Welcome Satyana Denisof
How I Met Your Mother’s Alyson Hannigan and her husband, Alexis Denisof, have welcomed a daughter named Satyana. This one has me stumped! It reminds me of Japanese names – like Satomi – as well as Russian appellations like Tatiana. (And Denisof’s bio indicates that he is of Russian descent, and has a family name […]

We baptized our daughter this morning. I mention this for two reasons: first, even though our priest has baptized plenty of Jaydens and Ashleys without complaint, I’ll admit it was nice to have a saints’ name for our daughter’s baptismal certificate. Second, my daughter’s godmother is named Sheryll. As soon as the priest handed over […]

I know what you’re thinking – Wolfgang? Sheer madness! Or is it? Thanks to Photoquilty for suggesting our controversial Name of the Day.

Apparently, Charlie Sheen’s twin sons have arrived. Wife Brooke Mueller and both boys are doing well. Naming a baby Max is no shocker – J. Lo and Christina Aguilera already chose it for their sons, to say nothing of the countless real boys who wear the appellation. (Max ranked #141 in 2007. Add in Maxwell, […]

Contestants included Salome, Sandhurst (he’s from Trinidad and Tobago) and Mountaha (she’s from Brazil.) In more […]

Happy Valentine’s weekend. We’ve had a bumper crop of starbabies this past week: First, there’s the surprisingly restrained Sarah Brianna from KISS’ Paul Stanley; Then there’s the nickname-named Charlie Axel from Tiger Woods. Since his daughter is Sam Alexis, I suppose they pair together well. But I just can’t imagine not putting Charles and Samantha […]

According to Celebrity Baby Blog, Violet’s little sister is called Seraphina Rose Elizabeth! I’m heading over to Nameberry to see if anyone guessed it in their contest. Seraphina will be Name of the Day on 3/3, but here’s a taste – the seraphim are one of the orders of angels; there have been two Saints […]
READ MORE >>Starbaby News: Welcome Dolly and Charlie
Rebecca Romijn and Jerry O’Connell have welcomed their twin daughters. The girls are named Dolly Rebecca Rose and Charlie Tamara Tulip. It’s an interesting duo. While Rose is among the most common botanical baby names, I’ve never heard of a Tulip. Rebecca and Tamara are graceful in the middle spot – Rebecca after mom and […]
