Julia Roberts twins -- Why must celebs give their kids unusual names?

Heck, I like those names. At least they are classic names and not some junk that no one will ever be able to pronounce.
 
Old-fashioned names are back in style. And at least they are real names - unlike Rumor, Scout and Tullahbelle (and I'm sure I didn't spell those right!)

Hazel...All I can think of is the old TV show with the same name.

The boy's name I'm not even going to attempt to pronounce.

Poor kids. Maybe they'll call themselves Patricia and Walter. :confused:

I like those names. I don't see them as unusual at all.
 

I don't think they are strange but just not very common anymore.

If you want to see some strange names come down to south GA. The folks here have some names that come up that are unbelievable. And then if you hear how they pronounce them compared to how they are spelled you can tell that they don't even know how to spell.
 
Hey - there aren't too many Jennifers. :D I don't know any under 15. Most that I know are in their 30's. Hey it's better than Hazel. Really she could have chosen better. Maybe they are family names.
 
I know someone who named their boy and girl twins Kai and Luna. I can already see the mean kids calling her Loony.

My dd is named Jennifer!!! She is the ONLY Jennifer at her primary school of around 700 kids and I dont think there is a Jennifer at my school except for one teacher. I know it used to be really popular and I glad it is not like all the ...........well.....common names out there now!! I was going to name some but I figured I would get in trouble!! Some here are so common there will be 5 or 6 in the same class room with the same name!!
 
I'm wondering if it's a joke because Julia Roberts loves to play pranks. Of course, I thought that might be the case with Apple, but I was wrong! LOL
 
I don't think they're awful names at all. Not what I would have picked, but at least she didn't make some name up out of thin air or use a random word she heard somewhere. I'm pretty traditional when it comes to names and love those that are old-fashioned.
 
The popular names of today will be the old fashioned names of tomorrow. Just think in a few years, our great-grandkids will be going to visit Grandma Tiffany at the nursing home.
 
Perhaps they like the circus? As in Barnum... Phinneaus Taylor Barnum. :confused3

I like the name Hazel. I agree with the other posters that prefer Finn, though.
 
Although I don't really like Hazel I LOVE Phinneas, have loved it ever since I read A Seperate Peace in the 7th grade....I've always wanted to name a kid that and call him Finn....
 
I am just thankful that it is not me having to name a baby!!!!!!!
 
I think they are beautiful names. I'm sure if her publicist was naming the twins it would have been different, but since's she's the mother its her choice.
 
I really, really don't like the name Hazel. It reminds me of the tv show with the maid, Hazel. Just sounds like a grandmom name. Then again, it's not my child, LOL.

OMG that terrible!!!!

I thought she was normal! I guess she's just as much of a freak as the rest of Hollywood!

Those poor kids!
 
I don't think they are too bad. Not compared to Moon Unit or Dweezil. :p

I have a friend who chose unconventional names like Sawyer and Cade, but they seem to fit them perfectly. :teeth:
 
Poor kids. Those are awful names. Those names are as bad as Myrtle, Gertrude or Ezikel. And I thought Apple was bad. :rolleyes:
