Let’s not lie, the best part about a celebrity announcing the birth of their new baby is the name reveal. We eagerly await the sweet Instagram post confirming the chosen moniker which is more often than not pretty damn unique and quirky. Celebrities LOVE a niche name.
And guess what? Rihanna and A$AP Rocky’s son name has FINALLY been revealed and we can’t say we saw it coming. On his first birthday, dad Rocky shared on Instagram that their one-year-old is called “RZA,” in honor of the legendary Wu-Tang Clan rapper RZA. We know RiRi is a big fan of the hip-hop group so it makes sense.
Of course, they aren’t the only unusual baby names that have cropped up recently in celeb land. Ed Sheeran and wife Cherry announced their second child was called Jupitar Seaborn. After naming their first daughter Lyra Antarctica we definitely expected something niche. Elsewhere, Kylie Jenner and Travis Scott named their second child ‘Aire’ (after changing his name from Wolf).
The rise of the ‘niche’ celebrity name began all the way back in 2004 when the Queen of wellness, Gwyneth Paltrow gave birth to her first child, Apple, with Chris Martin. At the time, Apple seemed an unusual choice, but as Apple is set to turn 16, it’s basically, well basic, in comparison to the other celebrity baby names.
For instance, take Cameron Diaz. Our ultimate rom-com star gave birth to her first child earlier this year. Taking to Instagram to reveal the birth of her child, with Benji Madden, the actress said, “She has instantly captured our hearts and completed our family. She is really really cute! Some would even say RAD.” The name? Raddix, which was practically un-Googelable at the time, apparently means root in Latin. Who said celebrity names can’t be educational, too?!
If you’re currently pregnant and looking to give your tot a name that’ll stand out from the crowd then look no further than the A-list set who are providing all the inspiration we need. There’s not an ‘Emily’ or ‘Ed’ in sight.
From Jessica Simpson’s baby girl Birdie, to Kourtney Kardashian’s child, Reign, and Cardi B’s daughter, Kulture, the decision to opt for more unusual baby names is only set to rise. Here, GLAMOUR looks at the most unique and surprising celebrity baby names you certainly won’t have heard of before…
