Remember how uppity M.I.A. got when internet reports said she’d named her baby Ickitt?
She wrote on her blog “MY BABY IS NOT CALLED ICKITT, PICKIT OR LICKIT THANK YOU VERY MUCH TO ALL THE HOLLYWOOD PRESS… I WILL BE BACK WITH SOMETHING NEWS WORTHY SOON , TILL THEN GO PICK ON APPLE, SATCHEL AND MOON UNIT.
LOTS OF LOVE STICKIT!!”
Ickitt?
Ohhhh, the school yard taunts will be ENDLESS!
“Ickitt makes me sickitt. You know where you can stick it.”
“Ickitt is icky.”
Or maybe just a simple “You’re mommy hates you.”
The singer gave birth to her son with fiancé Benjamin Brewer on February 11th and he will be known as Ickitt Brewer.
Why do celebrities insist on saddling their children with trauma-inducing names?
Gwynnie Paltrow’s Apple, Jason Lee’s Pilot Inspektor, Ashlee Simpson’s Bronx Mowgli, Nick Cage’s Kal-El, David Duchovny’s Kyd (that is so wrong), and Jermaine Jackson’s Jermajesty…
Celebrities love to eff their kids up from the start by bestowing them with legendarily bizarre names.
But not Naomi Watts and Liev Schreiber.
They have named their newborn son Samuel Kai Schreiber.
Adorable!
