About This Quiz
When a celebrity announces that they're pregnant, it's not long before people start to speculate what names they might choose for their new bundle of joy. Many stars are notorious for naming their kids with unusual names that both shock and delight. Each celebrity has their reasons behind the name, or sometimes, they just think it suits their child best.
Some names are inspired by something, like the name "Elsie Otter," which was inspired by mom's love of the animal! Names like "Stormi" were chosen just because mom thought that the name fit her little girl's personality. Over the years, there have been some creative names that celebs have picked, such as Heiress Harris, which is the name of T.I.'s daughter. It's a name you won't forget! Often, when a celebrity names their child something out of the ordinary, you'll find that their siblings also have unusual names too.
