Sunday Summary: 2/15/09

February 15, 2009 By appellationmountain 9 Comments

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 […]

January 13, 2009 By appellationmountain Leave a Comment

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.

January 6, 2009 By appellationmountain Leave a Comment

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 […]

Starbaby News: Welcome Emery Hope

December 19, 2008 By appellationmountain 11 Comments

Angie Harmon and Jason Sehorn welcomed their third daughter, Emery Hope, yesterday. Reports indicate that mom and baby are doing well. Their older girls are called Finley Faith and Avery Grace, so her middle name is not a shocker. And Emery fits right in with the last-names-first, borrowed-from-the-boys choices Finley and Avery. What strikes us […]

Starbaby News: Welcome Bronx Mowgli

November 21, 2008 By appellationmountain 16 Comments

We’ve all joked about those babes called Brooklyn, asking if their sib would be called Manhattan. As of today, we can report that Ashlee Simpson and Pete Wentz are parents to the punchline, newborn son Bronx Mowgli. As for that middle name?

November 13, 2008 By appellationmountain Leave a Comment

Despite our addiction to Celebrity Baby Blog, we don’t attempt to cover every starbaby to arrive. That’s their gig, and they’re brilliant about it. But we couldn’t help notice a flurry of interesting name announcements on the heels of Sunny Madeline yesterday. Just in case you missed them, here they are: Actor Rob Corddry, best […]

November 12, 2008 By appellationmountain 14 Comments

Adam Sandler is a dad again! His wife Jackie gave birth to the couple’s second daughter on November 2, and reports are that everyone is doing fine. While their firstborn’s name – Sadie Madison – isn’t our style, we rather like her jazzy vibe. But if Sadie is a diminutive that can stand alone, the […]

Congrats to Amy Poehler and Will Arnett on the birth of Archie. Word is that he arrived yesterday and Mom, Dad and baby are all doing well. We’ve yet to learn if Archie is the full name or short for Archibald. (Or Archer, maybe?) But we’re quite excited about the first name – it’s a […]
