Best celebrity girl names
Quirky, vintage baby names are totally having a moment — and we are crushing over these celebrity baby name choices. Foo Fighters rocker Dave Grohl named his daughter the adorable name of Ophelia (and we love his two other daughters' names, Harper and Violet). Scarlett Johansson's daughter Rose and Grant Show's adorable name Eloise also make the list.
Gender-bending names are not for everyone, but they are a fun way to turn an otherwise normal boy name into a cool name for a girl. Mila Kunis and Ashton Kutcher jumped headfirst into this trend by naming their daughter Wyatt Isabelle, as did Drew Barrymore, who named her baby girl Frankie. One of my top picks for this trend is designer Rebecca Minkoff, who named her daughter Bowie. Love.
Lastly, Disney princess names are another celebrity baby name trend. Rachel Bilson named her daughter Briar Rose, from Sleeping Beauty, and Ryan Gosling and Eva Mendes named their daughter Esmeralda, from The Hunchback of Notre Dame.

Worst celebrity girl names
Some of the celebrities that made our worst baby name list chose a name that was too normal, such as Jimmy Kimmel, who named his daughter Jane. Yawn.
Some of these names were a little too "out there," such as Lil' Kim's baby Royal Reign, or hard to pronounce names (that totally sound made up), such as JWoww's daughter, Meilani.
Sorry to say it, but Christina Aguilera's name, Summer Rain, reminds us a little of a certain feminine product.
Check out our list of the worst baby girl name of the year:
- Lil' Kim: Royal Reign
- Drew Brees: Rylen
- Christina Aguilera: Summer Rain
- Doutzen Kroes: Myllena Mae
- Jenni "JWoww" Farley: Meilani Alexandra
- Jimmy Kimmel: Jane
- Rob and Amber Mariano: Adelina
- Kendra Wilkinson: Alijah
- Blake Anderson: Mars Ilah
- Danny Masterson and Bijou Phillips: Fianna Francis
- Michael Jordan: Ysabel
- Shanola Hampton: Cai Myanna
- Anna Trebunskaya: Amalya
Worst celebrity boy names
The Bachelorette's Ashley Hebert made our worst list when she named her son Fordham. No, just no.
The most unique name of the bunch, however, goes to Tom Fletcher, of the English group McFly, who named his son Buzz Michelangelo. Buzz Lightyear, anyone? We love Gwen Stefani, but we weren't feeling her strange baby name choice for her third son, Apollo.
Check who else made our list of the worst boy names of the year:
- Soleil Moon Frye: Lyric Sonny Roads Goldberg (son)
