A countdown of the fruitiest baby names in LaLa Land:
#784 of 1,000 Awesome Things
9. Shannyn Sossamon – Audio Science. Says the actress from A Knight’s Tale: “We wanted a word, not a name, so my boyfriend read through the dictionary three or four times”.
.
8. Robert Rodriguez – Rocket, Racer, Rebel, & Rogue. Dad will be so upset if Rocket becomes a plumber instead of developing the team into a band of caped crusaders.
.
7. David & Victoria Beckham – Brooklyn, Ashlee Simpson – Bronx. Now, Bronx is a standalone and the plus side of Brooklyn is that it’s easily split into both Brook and Lyn, making both slightly better choices than Staten Island.
6. George Foreman – George, George, George, George, & George. The Grillman’s kids don’t have strange names, but they do all have the same one. Big George differentiates by number and has also given each a nickname: Monk, Red, Joe, Little George, and Big Wheel.
.
5. The Edge – Blue Angel.
.
4. Bob Geldof & Paula Yates – Fifi Trixibelle, Little Pixie, Peaches Honeyblossom, & Luscious Tropical Mango. This obviously cranks the fruit-named theme up a few notches.
.
3. Jason Lee – Pilot Inspektor. Jason says he got the name from a Grandaddy song he likes called “He’s Simple, He’s Dumb, He’s The Pilot.” As for Inspektor, we can only assume he was trying to differentiate from all the kids named Inspector.
.
2. Jermaine Jackson – Jermajesty. Talk about leading a royally confusing life. “Did you want pickles on the side, Jermajesty?” Maybe Jermaine should’ve done what brother Michael did with his baby Prince 2, which is give him a more accessible nickname like Blanket.
.
1. Frank Zappa – Moon Unit, Dweezil, Ahmet, & Diva Muffin. Which Zappa would you be?
