If I spent years in college...
How depressed would I be to have to write stories like this:
Shiloh Nouvel Jolie-Pitt was delivered by C-section...
...Bruce Lansky, a self-described "baby name guru" and author of "100,000-plus Baby Names," says the name is "unusual without being silly."
Shiloh Nouvel Jolie-Pitt is only the latest instance of a unique name bestowed on a celebrity child. Lately, names rooted in Hebrew are all the rage.
Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes' baby was famously named Suri, which the couple claimed means "princess" in Hebrew (or "red rose" in Persian). Some doubted the Hebrew origin, instead suggesting the more accurate meaning was "pointy nose" from Todas, a language spoken by a Southern India tribe.
Gwyneth Paltrow and Chris Martin named their second child Moses, born in April. Their first child, Apple, remains one of the most renown examples of esoteric names given to celebrity babies.
Right now, a truly original name for a celebrity's child might simply be Jack, or Jill.
I think I'd kill myself. What's even worse is that they actually pay people to write this because people cannot get enough of stupid celebrity gossip.
