Million dollar names by Kate Johns

Parents are naming their kids names that are created with the intention of their child becoming the NEXT BIG STAR!! They are million dollar names.
These aren't regular, run of the mill, boring names. It's been going on for about 20 years now.
You heard them: Gwenyth Paltrow naming her daughter Apple. What about the name Ozzy for Ozzy Osborne? Okay, that one came up in a deranged drug fest of large magnitude, and his band manager probably came up with Ozzy.
They are names that get noticed. They are million dollar names such as Rhianna, the pop star.What about Ice-T, Eminem, or Izzy?

Million dollar names are created by parents, pop stars, actors, and even pet owners in hopes that their child, pet or pop star will make millions doing what they do best. They want their little star to be noticed if not for talent, but for their name alone.
More million dollar names:

Kate Middleton recently married Prince William in a ceremony watched by billions the world over. Kate is a straightforward, down to earth sort of girl and so is her name. Her real name Catherine means "pure", and is not a strange, out there kind of name. Kate will soon become the most popular girl's name due to Kate marrying Wills.

Prince. The pop star, Prince has a once in a lifetime name that not too many people have named their kids. Believe it or not this is Prince's real name, not a made up name to get attention. His real name is: Prince Rogers Nelson.

 Sky, Sky can be spelled as Sky or Skye, and is traditionally a girl's name. But anything goes today and this name can of course be a boy's name too, such as Skylar. Ione Skye starred in the 1989 movie, "Anything Goes," and then we didn't see much in the way of major stardom from her.
A names are seriously popular for girls right now. Naming your daughter a name starting with A will assure that your baby will be a star; Alexandria, Alyssa, Allison, Adrianna, Autumn, are all million dollar A girl's names!
 Faith. Longtime million dollar names have always been Faith, Hope and Charity. Millionaire country singer, Faith Hill may be adopted, but she still has a stylish name that has her singing ways still stand country strong.
How's this for a million dollar name---Huckleberry? Brad Paisley and his wife Kimberly Williams, named their baby boy Huckleberry, this ridiculous name back in 2007. What do you call him for short--Huck, Huckster?
 Tiger. The golf player star who made millions with his famous stroke. Can you think of anyone else named Tiger, besides Tiger Woods?
 Venus. Venus Williams the tennis playing star has a mean backhand and aces almost all of her serves. She also has a million dollar name, such as Star.
 Sunshine, Summer, Autumn, are all names that are named after nature, but they are all uncommon, million dollar names. Copyright 2011, written by talented author Kate Johns who has been writing professionally since 2004!

Why Do Celebrities Name Their Kids Strange Names? by Kate Johns

Why do celebrities name their kids strange, unheard of names, that we regular, down to earth folk would never dream of naming our kids?

• >>
Why is it that we regular people who work really hard for our money, don't have the time or the money for that matter, to come up with these strange names? What happens to people when they become celebrities? Do they ask their entourage to give them names for the baby, and one person says, "Okay, Michael I think a really good name would be Blanket." What? Michael Jackson named his third child Blanket? What kind of strange baby name is that?

But, celebrities and their children don't have to deal with real life. They pay people to do that for them. Celeb children don't have to go to real school. And they won't get beaten up on the school playground for having a name like, Blanket. Gwyneth Paltrow's child will never have to hear the taunts of other kids at school making fun of his, or is that her, name, of Apple. Apple won't be attending regular, everyday school, Apple will be attending a private school with other kids who are wealthy and have celebs for parents. And they too, will have strange celeb names.
Possibly the other celeb parents will come up with names such as; Orange, and Lemon. How about naming your child Earth Science, Orbit, or Venus? Wait a minute Venus has already been taken, now hasn't it? Venus Williams, the tennis ace, whose parents weren't celebs when they named her. HM. me thinks that is strange!
Valerie Bertinelli and Eddie Van Halen had one child together and they named him Wolfgang. Now that is a truly strange name. But, when you think about this name, it makes perfect sense. Eddie Van Halen is a musical genius, and they obviously named their child after Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart. He was the famous classical composer of music back in the dark ages of music. That obviously took a lot of thought to name their child Wolfgang!
We knew at the time that Michael Hutchence of INXS and Paula Yates were taking a lot of drugs when they were romantically involved and they named their still alive to this day daughter-Heavenly Hiraani Tiger Lily. Hutchence killed himself back in 1997 and Paula followed him in the year 2000 by overdosing on heroin. Tiger Lily is currently living with Bob Geldof and his three daughters by Paula Yates. One of their children, they named Fifi Trixibell. As the story goes it wasn't Hutchence or Yates that even named Tiger, it was Fifi that gave her this strange to us regular people, name.
The list goes on with the celebs and stellar musicians naming their kids strange names. U2's The Edge named one of his children Blue Angel, and Bruce Willis and Demi Moore named one of their kids Rumer. Possibly, celebs are so incredibly creative, they just outshine us regular, down to earth people with naming their babies.
Makes Beyonce's baby's name Blue Ivy sound perfectly normal, now doesn't it? Copyright 2010, written by Kate Johns a talented author who started her career creating greeting card sayings in 2004!
