Kim and Kanye have only shown us how really little they think about their child. Poor kid already has to have the two of them for parents and is named North West. I guess the good news is she could have been named Shallo, Hallo or Slo West. Makes you yearn for the good old days of normal baby names like Prince, Blanket or Apple.

Kim and Kanye have already said they think their baby is "royalty" ( undecided.gif ) so I'm surprised they didn't go with YourMajesty, YourHighness, Baron, PrinceCharming, Princess, Queen, King, etc.
Remind me again why these people are considered celebrities? embarrassed.gif

Honestly, it's nothing new (Moon Unit and Dweezil Zappa anyone?). I saw that "north west" was trending so finally decided to find out why...then I saw it was a name. Shook my head, rolled my eyes and found myself thinking it was no surprise coming from those two.

I grew up down the street from Frank who was older but his band The Blackouts played at my Junior and Senior Prom even though he had moved from the area by then. He has other oddly named kids too besides Moon Unit and Dweezil. He also had Diva and Ahmet. I was a local musician too, playing drums in many of the same early venues and he once gave me a semi-compliment that my bandmates say about me to this day "You don't sweat much for a female drummer". It could very well have been a criticism but I took it as opposite. I even was gifted with a tee that says this!
lol that's a pretty awesome memory/story to have DL! beer11.gif

Kanye is actually talented. He's also a jackass who never dealt with his mother's death so I usually cut him some slack because I know he's hurting and he's not that bad in private. Kim was a Paris hanger-on with a coke whore mother (ask OJ or anyone living in Brentwood and Beverly Hills in the 90s) who thought that if Paris could get famous off of giving lazy blowjobs on camera then so could her daughter's ass (literally), and to one up Paris's 'leaked' sex tape she even convinced her daughter to take a shower of the golden variety which later got cut. After securing a distribution deal with a major p o r n company for her daughter's 'leaked' sex tape, Ryan Seacrest, a.k.a. Satan's butt buddy, saw an opportunity to destroy humanity further and signed the whole family up for a reality show, thereby, extending their 15 minutes and providing them with even more opportunities to be financially successful and famous for being famous for doing nothing.
I know your question was rhetorical but I couldn't help myself. Also, North, or Nori, will always be known as Norikake (rhymes with sake) amongst my friends and me. Yep, we're taking it out on a baby but we're pretty sure there's a 50-50 chance that by the time it can figure out what we're saying that she'll have already become a mini monster combo of her father and mother and, therefore, lost all humanity she was possibly born with. #kanyeshrug
I'd agree that Kanye is very talented. His personality and attitude override that though and his talent is easily overlooked and ignored (as it should be) by those that actually appreciate hip hop/rap, myself included. It's too bad his talent goes to waste because of it.
I suppose you fine folks see something in Kanye that I just don't see. I think he is just another angry imbecile who wouldn't know how to act in social situations if it were to save his life. I saw him perform a couple times on a recent SNL show and I thought he was terrible. Clearly, others feel differently. I actually saw a portion of the sex tape Kim made with a previous boyfriend and I can't believe that they are becoming MORE famous for that kind of crap. I was unimpressed with her performance and turned away after about two minutes. YUCK. North doesn't stand a chance.

You are saying what I have always thought. Main reason I do not watch reality shows(except TreeHouse Masters it is fun)And I want Pete to build me a Harley TreeHouse
Kris's late hubby was a family friend and also I always kidded him that he followed me to San Diego (where he went to law school). Unfortunately for us he was also my fathers atty and didn't have the same outcome as the OJ trial. I always thought though that Rob was just stunned with shock cuz he knew his buddy was guilty. I only met Kris twice but since she really liked to be the center of attention she never even acknowledged me even though my 6 brothers and I performed at the function.
And I was remiss in not saying that Frank Zappa's daughter was Diva - I left out her full legal name - Diva Thin Muffin Pigeen Zappa. Try showing up to 3rd grade with THAT on your lunch bag!

I hate when parents who will already screw up their kid with their 'my child is a special snowflake' approach to parenting (see example below) have to go even further with their unique/strange/ridiculous names. At what point does it become child abuse? New Zealand has a list of names that they ban parents from giving their kids and the US should adopt a similar law to avoid even more generations of Peppercorns, Audios and Station Wagons.

a single test! Sorry but your kid is AVERAGE which is fine. Meeting all development milestones on time is not proof positive that the kid is exceptional, it's actually the opposite. When did being average become such a horrible thing? Average people have accomplished amazing things and become enormously successful. Average isn't going to hold you back. Mommy doing your homework and sitting in on your college interviews will. People act like no public school or basic private school kids ever get admitted into Ivy League schools. If anything those kids are proof that THEY are exceptional because they didn't have the direct (and easy) path laid out for them since preschool.

I honestly couldn't go further after I facepalmed at Rob Morrow's daughter....Tu. Yep, Tu Morrow.
One of the CEO's at Warner Music was a very nice lady named Ann Burr. She lost all creed with me when she named her child Tim - Tim Burr! I have had issues with names since birth. I have 6 brothers and my mother chose a very flowery female name but my father put my nickname on my birth certificate and legally my name is very male. The only time I have ever been called by my should-have-been name is when they were really angry. I used to just joke that my parents had vision problems and just thought I was one more male. But it is also why I compete harder and do not have the shopping gene - instead having the gadget gene so after being 113 yrs old I am finally good with my name. Unfortunately most of my spam is male oriented and naked girls are constantly friending me on Twitter!
Oh and when I went to look how to spell Diva Zappa's whole name I found that even poor Ahmet wasn't just mini-odd - his full name is Ahmet Emuukha Rodan Zappa. Dweezil turned out to have the normal name only cuz the hospital refused to allow Dweezil. He was born Ian Donald Calvin Euclid Zappa and had his legal name changed to Dweezil at age 5.
I don't have the shopping gene either! All my girlfriends have thought I was very odd! "Going to the mall...?" "No, thanks, see you later"
I have the gadget gene and can spend FOREVER in Home Depot, Lowe's and Harbor Freight. My boyfriends have all loved me for that.
Nice to know that there's yet one more thing you and I have in common, Theodore.... er...... uh..... I mean DisneylandLady!
I too have a weird first name.....it was my Dad's old girlfriends name.. You think that made my momma happy?? I was called a lot of stuff, and when I left home at 17 ( after I graduated ) I started using my middle name cause the first job I took was in Kansas and the boss couldn't pronounce the name.
I don't like shopping " in the mall " but I am a do it your selfer and would rather spend time at Home Depot than Target. And by the way.....I will be going to Harbor Freight on Tuesday with my shopping list in hand ( they are having a tent sale )...yippee. huh.gif
This is your useless information for the day................. hysterical.gif
Why on earth did your mother agree to name you after your father's old girlfriend!?!?
What time are you going to Harbor Freight? I'll meetcha there!

I was born in the '30s and my mom at the time was a back woods farm girl pushed into marriage by her father. What the man wanted, he usually didn't ask, but just done it. And my dad was 15 years older than she was. She gave me her middle name which was a blessing cause it is easy to say and remember and I have used it all these years since 1957. tumbsup.gif
Harbor Freight about 3:00.....got 3 20% off coupons and 4 freebie coupons. I need a tarp about 20 x 24 and they ain't cheap.

WTG on the middle name tumbsup.gif
Wooo hooo! H.F. - here we come! I've got good negotiation skills. We'll get the price down on that tarpaulin!
Ahmet isn't that unusual a name actually. It's a Turkish name and Ahmet Zappa is one of 4 or 5 I've met just in business, and I'm not that old. As for the other siblings, back then it kind of made sense as these people were fighting against the establishment in every possible way, and with the message of peace, love, nature, that whole thing you get where some of these names came from. These days celebrities do it to get additional publicity in addition to using their children as accessories, now that purse dogs are out of fashion. I don't see the point of having a kid just to hand it over to nannies except in photo ops where you pretend to be an involved parent.
I didn't get the shopping gene either. I only shop when I need something and I'm very specific about what I want and sometimes will end up spending a lot of money because it just ends up that way. My bf will often say that I can pick the simplest thing in the shop and it'll end up being the most expensive but it basically evens out compared to people who shop for cheaper stuff but much more often. He too gets turned on by my ability to hold a drill and fix the toilet myself although I do use YouTube for instructions on how to do stuff.
My mother basically got the daughter she always wanted when she adopted her dog because that dog will follow her every command, always stays super close, wears lots of pink frilly clothes and is as dainty as can be. I grew out of the girly phase at about 12 and my mother never got over it. My goth phase was not a good time for her and she abhors my tattoos even though they're high quality and beautiful done. She also can't believe I'm only just now getting married, and regardless of how successful I was on my own she never really did relax until I got into a serious live-in relationship with my bf (technically my fiance but it just feels weird saying it in conversation or writing.)
We want to see pics of the big day, HotPink!
Keeping up with the off-topic! So I guess you can just imagine the horror I have had this weekend when my neighborhood had Scrapbook Yard Sales! Been off hiding at the beach all weekend! They should just be glad I did not lock and load on their azzes.

LOL. Rockne is the only person I'd think of if someone said Knute...but I love sports so that would make sense. I wouldn't even think someone would know the name outside of him. At least she didn't go with something like kanoot or cawnute or something. :P

I am sure that William and Kate are considering this one with the birth of the new prince, Prince Boobie of Cambridge. (sad to think that today Diana would have been a Nana. She would have made a great nana!)
Diana would be 50 or 51 now. She would have loved this moment with her son and his growing family. The name will, in all likelihood, be something very proper.... like Edward... or Adrian or Alfred Arthur Augustus Charles Edgar Edmund Ernest Frederick Geoffrey Harold Henry(Prince Harry's real name) Humphrey Jasper John Leopold Lionel Nicholas Philip Richard Robert Rupert Stephen Thomas Victor William
I think they should name him King or Prince. Then he can be Prince Prince of Cambridge or Prince King of Cambridge. whistle.gif
How about Princely? Prince Princely, has a nice ring. Or just say screw it and name him Bob.
I heard a suggestion today to name him " Lennie " hysterical.gif
