Naming the Children of Celebrities
(aka "The Boy Named Sue")

Beyonce named her new baby Blue Ivy and that reminded me (among others) that many of our famous people have come up with imaginative names for their children. Here is a list of those imaginative celebrity parents and the names they came up with:

Celebrity Parent

And then there are those who have little of no imagination. For example, George Foreman has 5 boys named George, George, George, George, and George.
