Celebrity Baby Word Names

While Ivy Blue has made the color a popular choice for girls, Blues — as in the musical style — feels more masculine. We think it has potential as a laid-back name that oozes cool for those wanting to avoid more obvious choices like Indigo or Hendrix.

Even if you're hoping for a fiery child, this seems like playing with fire. One celebrity--Steve Vai--was bold enough to use it for his son.

Lithe and leonine name chosen for her daughter by singer Erykah Badu -- whose other child has the number name Seven.

Winner is an uplifting word name that can work for girls or boys. It was recently chosen by rapper Nya Lee for her daughter.

After daughters named Gravity Blue and Rumble Honey, we had a lot of expectations for the name of Lucky Blue Smith's third child. Luckily, he didn't disappoint when he named his son Slim Easy in 2022. The full name has been criticized, with commenters saying it sounds like a diuretic tea or diet pill. And we agree that the combination is too much. But in isolation, Easy has potential. With a carefree aura and accessible sound, Easy may be a celebrity baby name we grow to love.

Cool word name for boys evocative of rock and roll. Julia Stiles named her son Strummer in 2017.

We count Techno among the weird celebrity baby names, and yet we have to admit that it's the perfect choice for a child of Grimes and Elon Musk.

Nope, not Goldie. Oldie, as in, "an oldie but a goody" or "oldies music". Despite these neutral-to-positive associations, Oldie still has a musty, fusty quality.

In this era of Royalty, Reign, and Sir, why not Heiress? It is the name given by Clifford "T.I." And Tameka "Tiny" Harris to their daughter in 2016.

Peanut Kai is the crazy celebrity baby name of the son of General Hospital star Ingo Rademacher and his fiance Ehiku. Cute but not recommended.

Nick Cannon use this, well, powerful name for his daughter, born in 2020. It joins the ranks of other strong adjective baby names, such as Noble, Epic, Sovereign, and Brave.
