"Celebrity" births

Socialite Nicole Richie and her rock-star boyfriend became the parents of a daughter in Los Angeles on Friday, People magazine reported.

Harlow Winter Kate Madden was born at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center, People said, quoting a spokesman for Richie's manager. It is the first child for Richie, 26, and Joel Madden, 28, the lead singer of pop-punk band Good Charlotte.

Richie, the adopted daughter of singer Lionel Richie, has become a tabloid staple in recent years on account of her party-hopping lifestyle, stick-thin figure, and fractured friendship with Paris Hilton, her co-star in the reality TV series "The Simple Life."

A pregnant Richie spent an hour in a Los Angeles jail in August after being sentenced to four days for driving the wrong way on a Los Angeles freeway while under the influence of drugs. Prison overcrowding in Los Angeles County means nonviolent offenders often spend only a fraction of their sentences behind bars.

"And what's your name little girl?"
"Harlow..."
"Oh? That's an unusual name. What does it mean?"
"Troops on a Hill...."

And Toni Collette... And a boy for Christina Aguilara. All on the same day. Funnily enough, at the same hospital the day before, Courtney Thorne-Smith had a girl, and David Alan Grier's wife had a baby. I think that was a girl, too.

Oh?? Christina had a boy??? Where'd u find that info at??? None of the articles say what she had...other than hints that most of the stuff she got at baby showers were blue. :lol:

[Raph's Girl]

Welp...it's that time of year.... must be something in the Evian bottles.

Jan 9th:
Toni Collette's daughter: Sage Florence (I love that name)

Jan 11th:
Courtney Thorne-Smith had a boy. His name is Jacob "Jake" Emerson Fishman
David Alan Grier, little girl named Luisa Danbi Grier-Kim.
Christina Aguilera had a boy...no name as of yet
And of course Nicole Richie had Harlow Winter Kate Madden. Give it up for Nicole's daughter to have the weird name.

[Mecha Cow]

Yeah, this is pretty much the exact type of thread we don't need any more of. I seriously doubt anyone cares, and those that do need to get a life and a personality.

[Jo Dawn]

Absolutely no need for two of these threads with the same information in one day.

And, um, the Christina Aguilara information came from reports of her saying she was going to name her son 'Jackson' or 'Max'.

And as for where Nicole got Harlow from, I highly think it's from star Jean Harlow. Not an army hill.

[Raph's Girl]

And as for where Nicole got Harlow from, I highly think it's from star Jean Harlow. Not an army hill.

Yea she probably got the name from Jean Harlow....however the name itself means Troops On A Hill.

[Jo Dawn]

...I know. That's why I said 'army hill', heh. ;) Which is what it says in the dictionary.

[Raph's Girl]

Aaand the name of Christina's son has now been released. So lets all say hello to... Max Liron Bratman.

The baby was born Saturday night and weighs 6 pounds, 2 ounces

Liron is hebrew for My Song or My Joy.

Now Christina knows how to name a kid right! Max Liron translates to My great song/My great joy. :D

And to add more fuel to this trash fire, I hear Jack Black is expecting another child -- his third, actually. Quite frankly, I never knew he was a father.

[Raph's Girl]

Yea...I didn't know somebody married him till I read that he was gonna have another kid. :o

His wife is a musician (a cellist). It's actually their 2nd kid. They have a 1 year old son named Samuel Wyatt.

This is definatly a baby boom tho. More celebs had kids this week:

Paul McCartney is a grandpa again with the birth of Beckett Robert Lee Willis on Jan 8th (hey! I have a new soul twin! :D ). Beckett is the son of Paul's daughter Stella and her hubby Alasdhair Willis. The couple already have 2 other kids, Miller Alasdhair James, 2 ½, and Bailey Linda Olwyn, 13 months (good lord man...give the woman at least SOME time off from being a baby machine!)

Singer Monica and her fiance Rodney Hill welcomed the birth of their 2nd kid on Jan 9th, Romelo Montez Hill. They have a 2 1/2 year old named Rodney III. Montez is the name of Monica's brother...Romelo is a form of the name Romulas.

Ahh, yeah I remember when his first son was born. Heh. Kinda made me laugh, thinking of him as a daddy. But I thought this was his second... Unless I missed one somewhere!

[Raph's Girl]

January appears to be a rather big month for celebs giving birth. According to his website Casey Affleck's wife, Summer Phoenix (sister of Jaquine) gave birth on Jan 12th to their second child (reportadly a boy). No name as of yet. They have a 3 1/2 year old son named Indiana August....

Considering they're all hippies I expect this new one to have an unusual name as well. ..Would have been cooler if Indiana's middle name was Jones... :lol:

Edit: Turns out Indiana was named in part after Indiana Jones and after River Phoenix who played young Indiana Jones in The Last Crusade....*L*

Meanwhile there was another birth today...

Agent Patrick Whitesell, 43, and his wife, former So You Think You Can Dance host and current Good Day LA guest host Lauren Sánchez Whitesell, 38, have welcomed their daughter. Eleanor 'Ella' Patricia, named after both of their mothers, arrived earlier today, January 15th, in CA.

Eleanor joins 3 brothers: Nikko, Evan, and an unknown named bro from a previous relationship of Patrick Whitesell's.

[Raph's Girl]

Daniel Baldwin and his wife Joanne Smith-Baldwin welcomed their 1st (Daniel's 4th) into the world today. A girl named Avis Ann. Avis joins sisters Kalhea and Alexandria and brother Atticus..

[Raph's Girl]

Sex In The City's Mr. Big is a new dad! Chris Noth and his GF of 4 years, Tara Wilson (not to be confused with the Boston Legal character played by Rhona Mitra) welcomed their first child, a boy, on Friday (Jan 18th). His name is Orion Christopher. Cute name!

Anyone see that American Dad episode "Tearjerker?" That's pretty much all I'm going to say about this. I must be the only person on Earth who could care less about Celebs begetting spoiled rich children.

I'm right there with ya, man.

As for now, only one person on this board seems to be interested in the topic, so I don't really get your post.

[KROW]

Well, at least he didn't say "forum," or else we'd really be confused.

[Raph's Girl]

J-Lo had her twins! She had one of each. The names haven't been released yet but will be later on today. They join siblings (from Marc Anthony's previous relationships): Arianna, 13, Cristian, 7, and Ryan, 4 ½

OK! has confirmed that they've obtained international rights to the twin's first photos, while it appears People has secured US rights.

A thread about Fidel Castro resigning has far less posts than a thread about celebrity births. It's a sad, sad world.

[Cure]

A thread about Fidel Castro resigning has far less posts than a thread about celebrity births. It's a sad, sad world.

So how about instead of complaining and bumping this thread back up to the top, you do something about it and try to keep things moving in the Castro thread? You're no better seeing as how you haven't posted in there.

I prefer to discuss my politics on more mature forums, sorry.

[Sewer Bull]

Oh, quit the high-horse-ness. There's only one person excited about celebs breeding, so why to bash everyone? :roll:

A thread about Fidel Castro resigning has far less posts than a thread about celebrity births. It's a sad, sad world.

But really... what's here to discuss? The old geezer hasn't been ruling for some time anyway and nothing really changed. I bet everything's going to stay in the family anyway, even if his bro' quits as well.

Now, the independence of Kosovo would be something much more exciting to discuss, since so many countries are divided on that matter, the USA and Russia taking the exactly opposing stands - and the latter showing off its muscles on the international forum.

[Mecha Cow]

Did...you just seriously play the 'mature' card? I thought you were better than that.

I like the irony here. There's far too less of it and I applaud you for balancing the scales between that and sarcasm. :)

Sewer Bull, Mecha Cow, TheCure, KROW, etc.,

I didn't mean to offend you guys. I was merely making the observation that celebrity births seem to be more news-worthy than something that will actually effect people. It's not just this forum, it's society in general and it's ****ing sad.


And isn't the reason political discussions are banned on this forum because people couldn't discuss them maturely? I fail to see how I'm in the wrong with that argument. I come here, a ninja turtles message board, to discuss ninja turtles and other fun, albeit mindless things. I'm not about to start discussing politics on a ninja turtles message board. While there are many people here that I would love to discuss such things with, there are just as many people who would ruin it. I like it here. I like the people here. It's just not the place I would want to discuss certain things. Hell, I don't discuss politics on any message board, I'd much prefer to do that stuff in person.

Hell, I wasn't offended, at all. I liked your post. Like I said, it was ironic what you said and it offsets the sarcasm that creeps into the forum sometimes.

I agree that celebrities getting more attention for their deeds than political movements that could very well change the world (or at the most the infrastructure of an entire country) is a sad thing. That's why I stopped watching E!, MTV, VH1, and practically all other channels on TV and just play games, watch DVDs, and read the paper. I don't even watch CNN, CNBC, C-SPAN, and other news channels because all they do is argue. Heck, those channels are like a televised forum in themselves.

I wasn't offended, either, it's just funny how you'd rather complain about it and add more to the thread you're resenting than add to the other thread. I'm the last person that cares about what celebrity is giving birth.

[Raph's Girl]

Ok first off.. You guys are silly to even respond to a thread you're not even interested in. :P

Secondly.... JLo and Marc Antony finally released the names of their twins, Max and Emme. These are also names of characters from the PBS series, Dragon Tales. Humm... Altho Max seems to be the IT name these days.

[Mecha Cow]

You guys are silly to even respond to a thread you're not even interested in.
Find me one person who is genuinely interested in this pulp and I promise to stay out of these threads forever.

[Jo Dawn]

I kinda like the baby news. I mean, it's not my world or anything, but I don't mind it.

Plus I like to see the names.

[Raph's Girl]

Plus I like to see the names.

Exactly!! Im mostly just fascinated by what strange and unusual names people choose for their kids. It's the Genealogist in me I guess. *L*

[Raph's Girl]

Yay!! Jeri Ryan had a girl! Her name is Gisele. Her husband is french Chef Christophe Eme. That little girl will probably end up as hot as her mom.

Gisele joins older brother Alex (age 13) from Jeri's first marriage to the nummy politician Jack Ryan.

Sabrina the Teenage Witch and Clarrissa Explains it All star Melissa Joan Hart and hubby Mark Wilkerson (frontman for the rock band Course of Nature) welcomed their 2nd son into the world today. His name is Braydon Hart Wilkerson and joins 2 year old Mason Walter.

It's a girl for Halle Berry and her BF Gabriel Aubrey. No name as of yet. She was born yesterday morning.

[Raph's Girl]

It's a girl for Soleil Moon Frye (Punky Brewster). The name is Jagger Joseph Blue and joins big sister Poet Sienna Rose.

And yes...all research indicates that despite the very male name Soleil did have a girl. *blinks*

In other news:
Halle Berry and Gabriel Aubry have named their daughter Nahla Ariela. They must be Disney fans.

[Raph's Girl]

Check it out folks! Introducing J-Lo and Marc Anthony's twins, Emme Maribel and Max David! Awwww

[Scandia]

Not only the name of Soleil Moon Frye's daughter is clearly a male one- it is macho and rugged. What is she trying to accomplish?

J.Lo's daughter's name may be a bit of a tongue twister.

I like the middle name of Halle Berry's daughter. Kudos if you recognize who in the TMNT multiverse shares it :)

[Raph's Girl]

Soleil posted on the celebrity baby forum today explaining the reasonings behind chosing the names. On the one hand I think it's sad she had to do this (it was causing MAJOR chaos on the site...oi) but on the other hand I suppose explaining the reasonings will stop people from wondering WTF she and Jason Goldberg were thinking in choosing em.


We are truly blessed to have welcomed the newest addition to our family. Poet is overjoyed and giving her baby sister tons of love. I am in a complete state of bliss. It is amazing that this has been just as incredible the second time around.

We came home from the hospital and heard that there was a lot of dialogue happening in regards to our new baby's name. We thought it would be great to let you know how it came about.

Jagger was a name that we loved from the beginning of the pregnancy. We always wanted to be surprised by the sex and we felt like it was perfect for a boy or a girl.

Joseph has a meaning that is so very close to our hearts. It was the name of our godfather, the patriarch of our family, the one who was there for me the day that I was born and the person who walked me down the aisle at my wedding. He was the inspiration of our family and he passed away of cancer a little over a year ago.

We have always believed in the names within our family having a a deeper purpose and for us Jagger Joseph Blue was certainly one that came from the bottom of our hearts. She is beautiful, happy and healthy which is what is most important, and the name makes us smile each and everyday.

[Raph's Girl]

It's a girl for the Food Network's Giada De Lourentis and her hubby Todd Thompson! Altho born like a week early (she had been scheduled for the first week of April). Anyways. Jade Marie De Lourentis Thompson was born March 29th! Lil Jade was named after Giada (which is Italian for Jade). :D

[Raph's Girl]

It's a girl for Full House actress Jodie Sweetin. Doesn't this make ya feel old when lil Stephanie Tanner starts having kids?? Yeesh (the actress who played BJ has 3 kids).

Anyways.... Jodie and her current hubbie (she was married to a cop before but they divorced after she started doing Meth...she's been clean for 2 years now) Cody Herpin are now the parents of a lil girl named Zoie! She was like a week late too.. How rude! :P

It's a boy for Cate Blanchett and her hubby Andrew Upton. His name is Ignatius Martin Upton and joins brothers Dashiell John (age 6) and Roman Robert (age 4).

[Raph's Girl]

And the summer baby season has begun!

It's a girl for Jessica Alba and her hubby Cash Warren!

Honor Marie Warren was born on Saturday June 7th at Cedar Sinai.

IMO this is a lovely and normal name. :D

It's a girl for Tori Spelling and Dean McDermot who welcomed Stella Doreen (Gah!!!) at Cedar Sinai (busy hospital). She was named after Dean's mother.... "Stella!!!!" er they need to keep her away from street cars named Desire....

Stella joins brothers Liam and Jack.

[Spitfire]

Not to come off as sounding rude but there are people who actually care about this crap? Care so much they have an entire celebrity baby message board? For once I'm speechless. The stupidity behind it is astounding. FYI this isn't a stab at anyone in this topic discussing this is fine in my book but when it jumps into a message board created for the sole purpose of discussion about this I can't help myself but say something. It's almost frightening that someone has that much free time on their hands. Course this is coming from Ninja Turtles message board guy.

[Warhorse]

Could be worse, there could be a topic on celebrity animals births.

And this is coming from someone who is eagerly anticipating the running debut of Barbaro's brother.

[Raph's Girl]

It's a girl for Jamie Lynn Spears and fiance Casey Aldridge! Maddie Briann Aldridge was born around 9:30 am CST at Mississippi Southwest Regional Medical Center in McComb, MS

[Raph's Girl]

It's a boy for General Hospital actor Ingo "Jasper Jax" Rademacher and his fiancee Ehiku. Peanut Kai Rademacher was born July 11th..

If there was an award for giving children the most bizarre names possable Ingo won it this month.... :ohwell:
