Christina Aguilera's Baby Summer Rain & 15 More Celeb Kids With Nature-Inspired Names
In case you missed it, Christina Aguilera gave birth to baby girl Summer Rain Rutler on Sunday. You might be wondering if Aguilera was at Burning Man or in a beautiful forrest when she chose the name, and those are totally OK thoughts to have. You should know, though, that celebrities have a long tradition of giving their kids nature-inspired names. Hell, celeb kids with nature names could form a coalition and become a mighty famous mini empire.
Nature baby names are where it's at. Let's go through some other celebrity kids who sound like they might braid each other's hair and frolic in the green grass whilst barefoot and eating freshly picked plums, shall we?
Nicole Richie's Daughter, Harlow Kate Winter Madden
A snow inspired name!
Kelly Clarkson's Daughter, River Rose
As nature-y as they come.
Beyonce and Jay Z's Daughter, Blue Ivy
Ivy has never been more fabulous, has it? No. It has not.
Gwyneth Paltrow and Chris Martin's Daughter, Apple
An apple comes from nature! It comes from a tree! I know, I know, all you techies from the modern day think that apples come from Mac. But they came from nature first.
Kate Winslet's Son, Bear Blaze
Blazes and bears: found in nature. Blazes of glory: found inside people name Bear Blaze.
Alicia Silverstone's Son, Bear Blu
What do you get when you cross Kate Winslet’s kid with Beyonce’s kid and douse them in a lot of vegan cheese? Bear Blu.
Adam Sandler's Daughter, Sunny
When you name your daughter “Sunny,” you are arguably forcing her to enjoy beautiful weather and to have an optimistic outlook on everything.
Penelope Cruz's Daughter, Luna
“Luna” means moon in Spanish. It’s also like a Luna bar, a crunchy, natural snack, but I highly doubt that’s what Cruz was going for. The moon, by the way, may not be something you can technically find in nature, ie: on a scavenger hunt in the woods, but it’s naturally occurring. Science!
Frank Zappa's Daughter, Moon Unit
Okay, maybe Moon Units aren’t found in nature, either, but they are found in science. Whatever you measure stuff with on the moon … that’s a moon unit, right?
Busy Philipps's Daughters, Birdie and Cricket
“My children are my backyard.” (Not an actual quote.)
John Mellencamp's Son, Speck Wildhorse
A speck of dirt. Specks. They occur naturally, right? Perhaps this one’s pushing a bit, but, c’mon. Speck Wildhorse is super nature-y.
Jamie Oliver's Daughter, Poppy Honey
“Poppies!” I immediately jump to The Wizard of Oz.
Geri Halliwell's Daughter, Bluebell Halliwell
Bluebell Spice.
Johnny Depp's Daughter, Lily-Rose
A rose by any other name? How about a “lily rose?” Two flowers, one name.
Will Smith and Jada Pinkett-Smith's Daughter, Willow
When you hear the word “Willow” do you think of “Whip My Hair” or Grandmother Willow in Pocahontas? Both are acceptable.
