Celebrity Parents’ Unusual Choices of Baby Names

Do unusual baby names make a statement, or target children for challenges? Are these names creative or cruel?

Celebrities are notorious for proclaiming unusual names for their offspring.   Is it to gain attention, set their children apart from others, or express their artistic/political/or social views?  Who knows?  Whatever the reasons, we have to wonder, what will it be like for these children as they mature into adulthood?  Will they want the attention?  Will their unusual names make them happy, or create additional challenges unforeseen by their parents?  Whatever the case, I’m hopeful these individuals will successfully navigate through life’s ups and downs regardless of their unusual designations.

I don’t know whether to applaud or cringe. Here are just a few examples. Decide for yourselves.
