Celebrities: Having Babies, Naming Babies

I never knew the story behind the conception of the twins! That is too cute. I love those two so much and purposely ignore any bad stories about them in the press.

If this doesn't scream "JENSEN, EVEN THOUGH THE BASTARDS AT WARNER'S WON'T LET US BE TOGETHER AND FORCE ME TO CO-HABITUATE WITH SOMEONE WHO IS A GIRL AND THEREFORE NOT YOU, I WILL ALWAYS LOVE YOU SO PLEASE DON'T BE MAD THAT I HAVE TO TALK ABOUT THE CHILD THAT I WISH WAS OURS BUT ISN'T BECAUSE I HAD TO HAVE ICKY RELATIONS WITH MY 'WIFE' THAT ONE TIME BUT I WAS REALLY DRUNK AND AM SURPRISED THAT IT WORKED BECAUSE I HAD NO IDEA WHAT I WAS DOING AT THE TIME. PS: CALL ME!", then I don't know what does!

Poor man, being forced to talk about his son in magazines just to promote the show. He's such a brave soldier. *sniffle*

Oh dude J2's will totally latch on to the fact he's *alone* in that picture, no Gen in sight(which annoys me because they are seriously CUTER than KITTENS). I love the name, but I wish they'd named him Colton Thomas instead because then he'd have an 85% more likely chance of being a hockey player in the NHL.

I CAN TELL THAT BABY IS A HOMOPHOBE WHO IS TRYING TO KEEP J2 APART JUST FROM LOOKING AT THAT PICTURE.

HA! *thumbs up to this comment*

Alyson Hannigan has her baby: Keeva Jane Denisof

Keeva and Satyana are lovely names and I'm curious as to where they come from? Indian? Persian? Or is it a combination of names turned into a new name?

Huh. I had no idea she was even pregnant; she must have been a really slow shower because she didn't look pregnant - or trying to hide it - at the end of the HIMYM season.

Or it could be that I just started to hate the show so much that I stopped paying that close attention.

According to a baby names site, it's either from Hebrew, Avika, or Irish, Caoimhe, which is also the feminine of Kevin. I think it'd be nicer in its original form, whichever that is, but it's still a nice name.

Aha! I was on E! Online and they found out. Satyana is Sanskrit for truth or true. Keeva is a form of the Gaelic word caoimhe which means gentleness and beauty.

I really must start studying ancient languages to find the name of my future children.

Probably this one, since her character was pregnant and gave birth at the end of the season.

I've decided I love it and think both her daughters' names are really gorgeous.

Also, I keep forgetting Drew Barrymore is pregnant. I am really curious to see what she names that baby - it could be anything from Jane or Mary to something totally flowery hippy-dippy and I don't think I'd be surprised.

I'm glad they went with "Keeva" and not the traditional spelling, which would result with the kid getting called "Cow-im-hee" or other mangled versions.

I'm not a huge fan of either name, but she's got a consistent style.

I am really curious what Drew Barrymore is going to name her kid. I am guessing hippy-dippy on toast, but she could also bust out with "John".

HOLY CRAP.

I completely forgot about "Waitforit" Erickson in the wake of the suckitude of Barney and Robin's wedding. Wow.

Giuliana and Bill Rancic are having a boy.

Jennifer Nettles of Sugarland/Duets fame is pregnant.

Anna Paquin and Stephen Moyer are expecting twins!

Adele is pregnant.

Dayum, the publicists are just dropping all the crazy news right before the holiday weekend, aren't they?

I saw that riiiiiight after the Tom/Katie news dropped. I'm almost wondering if it was a spur-of-the-moment decision to seize that opportunity.

I don't care for Adele, but good for her.

Adele seems like she'd be a badass mom, especially to a daughter. She would probably be telling her kid from Day One not to take shit from anybody.

Matthew McConaughey really likes babies, and is adding another to his family. How is his daughter already 2? I swear she was just born.

ETA: Also, Claire Danes is pregnant.

HOW CAN CLAIRE DANES BE THIRTY-THREE???

Argh. I am so old. Congrats to her and Hugh Dancy, though!

Kourtney Kardashian and Scott Disick welcomed a daughter...Penelope Scotland.

Sienna Miller and Tom Sturridge had their baby but there aren't any more details available yet.

I think Penelope is a pretty name, but Scotland as a middle name is making me laugh.

Honestly, sometimes I think celebs are just throwing darts at a map when it comes to naming their children. At least she had the sense to use it as a middle name (we should be thankful she didn't go the Mariah Carey route and pick "Scottish"). I like Penelope quite a bit, however.

I wonder if Ashley Simpson and her ex are now cursing themselves for choosing just a neighbourhood for their child's name? They clearly should have been thinking bigger! Jupiter Mowgli Wentz!

We have some friends who have a daughter named Penelope (Penelope Louise, COULD NOT BE CUTER). This is the second celebrity-kid Penelope since their daughter was born (Tina Fey's is the other), and they're irrationally irritated about it.
