RELATED STORIES
Silas
Justin Timberlake and Jessica Biel put family first when choosing a name for their first child together.
That’s because Sila is after Justin’s grandfather. So presh!
Apple
Given how, um, unique Gwyneth Paltrow is, it came as a shock to no one when she and ex-husband, Chris Martin, chose unusual names for their kids.
They also have a son named Moses.
Kulture
Celeb couple Cardi B and Offset go by unique names as it is, so Kulture fits right in.
Stormi
Here’s the cutest story ever: Kylie Jenner’s daughter, Stormi, pretty much picked out her own name.
“I felt it the whole time,” Jenner said on Snapchat. “Yeah, I feel like she chose her own name. Pretty much, I wanted—I looked up names, and I saw Storm, and I really liked that.”
Strummer
The only thing that would make this name cooler would be if Julia Stiles’ son grows up to strum guitar in a band!
James
Since Ryan Reynolds and Blake Lively both have gender-neutral names, many believed that they named their first daughter “James” because of it.
Turns out, though, that they named their first daughter James after Ryan’s dad. They also have a second child named Ines and a newborn baby who has yet to be named!
Bodhi
Megan Fox and husband Brian Austin Green are known for making some pretty adorable kids and for giving them unique names, too.
While their firstborn is Noah, things turn an interesting turn when they named baby #2 Bodhi (it’s Hindu in origin and means “awakening, enlightenment) and their third son, Journey River!
Luna
The story behind Luna’s name is so cute!
Momma Chrissy Teigen has said that she was inspired by the blood moon that happened around the time of Luna’s birth.
Plus, Teigen is a huge fan of space.
Chicago
Let’s be real: any of Kim Kardashian and Kayne West’s children could make this list.

Sparrow James Midnight
Could this name be any cooler?!
It belongs to the son of celeb couple, Nichole Richie and Joel Madden.
They also have their daughter, Harlow Winter Kate.
Bear Blaze
Kate Winslet’s son’s name is definitely unusual — and so is the story behind it.
Kate told The Ellen Show : “Bear’s second name is Blaze because my husband and I met in a house fire basically,” she said. “The house burned down and we survived, but we wanted something of the fire and so Blaze was the name that we came up with. Bear Blaze.”
Tennessee
Reese Witherspoon is a Southern belle enough, so it was super fitting when she chose the name Tennessee for the son she has with husband Jim Toth.
Elula
We love this! It sounds like the name Phoebe used to sign for Monica’s race car bed in Friends : Monica “Fallulah” Gellar.
Parents Isla Fisher and Sacha Baron Cohen also have two other kids with unique names: Montgomery Moses Brian Baron and Olive Baron.
Wyatt Isabelle
While Wyatt is traditionally a boy’s name, meaning “brave in war,” the couple switched things up by giving it to their daughter.
They also have a son named Dimitri Portwood.
