Celebrity Baby Names We Love
Gideon and Harper, son and daughter of Neil Patrick Harris
It's twins for Neil Patrick Harris, and twice the baby name goodness for us! The sweet Harper has become the hot baby girl name for celebrity parents -- the Beckham's daughter shares the name -- and Gideon is a quirky pick that we love.
Noah, son of Alessandra Ambrosio
The Victoria's Secret model went slightly conservative with a classic name choice for her second child. She was quoted in People as saying she wanted a name that worked in both Portuguese and English, and it looks like she found it with Noah, a perennial top 10 baby boy name.
Poppy, daughter of Jessica Capshaw
Are flower names coming back? Possibly, with the Grey's Anatomy star choosing Poppy for her third child. It's bright and fun, plus it lends itself to the supercute Poppy Seed as a pet name.
Camden, son of Kristin Cavallari
When you think of Cam, the boy name Cameron usually comes to mind. We applaud the actress for going with Camden, a less-common but just as cool variation, which recalls the edgy London 'hood of the same name.
Penelope , daughter of Kourtney Kardashian
We're glad Kourtney didn't stick with her family's penchant for "K" baby names -- particularly with daughter Penelope. It's playful with a sweet nickname, Penny, and is becoming a celeb fave: Tina Fey's daughter has the same name!
Eliza, daughter of Caterina Scorsone
The Private Practice actress chose Eliza for her first child, and we love this vintage pick. The name recalls spirited female heroines, including Eliza Doolittle and Jane Austen's Elizabeth "Eliza" Bennet, and has fun nickname options: Liza and Liz.
Kingston, son of Gwen Stefani and Gavin Rossdale
No everyday names for Gwen and Gavin's son; Kingston is a cool -- but not too weird -- name. The last-name-as-a-first name gives it some sophistication to boot.
Matilda Rose, daughter of Michelle Williams and Heath Ledger
Matilda, like the one from the eponymous Roald Dahl novel, evokes sweetness and spunk. The middle name Rose offers a graceful finish.
Tabitha, daughter of Sarah Jessica Parker and Matthew Broderick
How many Tabithas do you know these days? This name -- also chosen as the name of the daughter on '60s sitcom Bewitched -- oozes vintage appeal yet feels thoroughly modern too.
Vida, daughter of Matthew McConaughey and Camila Alves
Vida, daughter of Matthew McConaughey and Camila Alves
This whimsical name is full of life -- Vida literally means "life" in Portuguese -- and perfectly suited for a daughter of fun-loving dad Matthew McConaughey. It also pays homage to her mother's Brazilian roots.
