Gwen Stefani has a boy...with a normal name!

[Raph's Girl]

After all the odd ball names we've gotten lately in the celeb biz...here comes a normal name:

It's a boy for Gwen Stefani and her rocker husband Gavin Rossdale.

Kingston James McGregor Rossdale was born by Caesarean section Friday at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center, according to Stefani spokesman Dave Tomberlin. The baby weighed 7 1/2 pounds.

"Both mother and child are doing well," Tomberlin said in a statement.

It's the first child for Stefani, 36, and Rossdale, 38, who were married in 2002. Rossdale, who fronted the rock band Bush, has a 16-year-old daughter with fashion designer Pearl Lowe.

Now...when the heck is Angelina Jolie gonna pop???

[Storm Wolf]

I would say the name is a bit rare, but normal. I have to say it's a lot better than Moxie CrimeFighter or MoonUnit...

Now...when the heck is Angelina Jolie gonna pop???

Haha! anxious to see what name she comes up with, Raph's Girl?

Oh wonderful... More "exciting" news about celebrities and babies...

*walks away from the thread*

I'm naming my next kid Carbonadium.

Is it just me or the names "Kingston" and "McGregor" are not that normal too... or at least they are beyond my standard of kids-naming normality,

Great choice! Unisex names rule! And you can call it "Carbie" for short. I'd name my son Dickoslav, he'd be very popular with the ladies thanks to that...

...let's make a "Weird made-up names you'd give to your kids" thread. Now that'd be fun.

Kingston and McGregor are Scottish names...clan names actually. Haven't u ever heard of the McGregor saga or Kingston, Jamaica (NY, England, Massachusets, ect)??

You said that... those are clan names or city names... But not the typical people's first names. That's why I find them rather odd. Would it be normal for you if someone called his kid Berlin, Prague, Stockholm or Oslo? Or even Kinshasa or Lilongwe for that matter? And these are all world capitals, just like Kingston.

Well my online name (and RL nick name) Dierna is a town in Romania and my RL name is a town (suburb really) in Kenya and my last name is a lake in Finland....Heck I have a cousin named McKay and that's a clan name. Kingston just sounds like a name my family would use.. *L*

Kinshasa would be a pretty name for a girl...

Oslo! That's a great name! *puts it on list*

[Dr. Doom]

I agree, I like Oslo. Berlin would work too.

What about Doomstadt?

[Sewer Bull]

"Doomstadt Jones at your service..." Nay, doesn't sound good.

But on second thoughts, I must admit "Oslo" would be quite a badass name.

*puts it on his list too*

[Ra]

Oslo? If the kids mispell his name, it'll be called "Solo". Cool! *puts it on her list as well*

The opposite of bowing before Doom would be bowing backwards. That'd be physically impossible and morally dubious, tho'.
