Crazy celebrity baby names

Some celebrity media outlets are reporting that Kim Kardashian and Kanye West want to name their baby West. Get it?? If they end up going with the moniker, we might have some other celebrities to thank for providing the inspiration... UPDATE: Kardashian and West have named their baby girl North.

"Real Housewife of Atlanta" Kim Zolciak and Atlanta Falcons player Kroy Bierman welcomed son Kash Kade in 2012 (they also have son KJ and Zolciak's daughters Brielle and Ariana from a previous relationship).

"The Biggest Loser" trainer Jillian Michaels' and her parnter Heidi Rhoades welcomed daughter Lukensia in 2012.

"Hawaii Five-O" star Alex O'Loughlin and surfer/model Malia Jones welcomed son Lion in 2012.

Beyonce and husband Jay-Z welcomed Blue Ivy into the world in 2012.

Actress and vegan cookbook author Alicia Silverstone just gave birth to her first child, a son who she named Bear Blu.

We bet we know what Erykah Badu and Andre Benjamin's lucky number is -- they named their son, born in 1997, Seven Sirius. Badu also has a daughter, Puma, from a later relationship.

Antwan Patton -- aka Big Boi -- has sons named Bamboo and Cross (along with a more traditionally-named daughter, Jordan).

Jermaine Jackson seems to have a knack for interesting names that start with "J." Some of his seven children's names include Jaimy, Jourdynn, Jaafar and Jermajesty.

Sylvester Stallone also went the mono-lettered route when naming his children. He's father to sons Sage Moonblood (seen here, along with Stallone's wife Jennifer Flavin) and Seargeoh, as well as daughters Sophia, Sistine and Scarlet.

Toni Braxton must really like her jeans -- she named one of her sons Denim. The other is the equally uniquely-monikered Diezel.

Actor David Carradine -- who passed away in 2009 -- and his then-partner, actress Barbara Hershey, named their son, born in 1972, Free. He later changed his name to Tom, much to his father's chagrin.

"40 Days and 40 Nights" star Shannyn Sossamon named her son Audio Science.

Bruce Willis and Demi Moore were giving their kids weird names before giving your kids weird names was cool. The couple -- now divorced -- are the parents of Rumer, Scout LaRue and Tallulah Belle.

These kids names were brought to you by the letter "R": Director Robert Rodriguez, who helmed the "Spy Kids" movies and "Planet Terror," is father to Rocket, Racer, Rebel, Rogue and Rhiannon.

Actress Milla Jovovich and director Paul Anderson picked Ever as their daughter's name.

Once considered for the role of Superman in a never-made Tim Burton version of the movie, Nicolas Cage used the character as inspiration to name his son, Kal-El, which is the superhero's birth name. Cage is also father to son Weston.

Not surprisingly, David Bowie (seen with wife Iman) has an interesting sense of humor -- he named his son Zowie. "Zowie," who started going by Duncan in his teens, couldn't have been too scarred by the experience -- he's a successful director, with "Moon" and "Source Code" under his belt. He also goes by the last name Jones, which is also David Bowie's last name.

Penn Jillette (seen with his comedy partner, Teller) decided on Moxie Crimefighter as his daughter's name and Zolten for his son. We're assuming he's a comic book fan.

Actor Jason Lee took inspiration from a song by indie rock band Grandaddy for his son's name -- Pilot Inspektor. We vote for Pilot and Moxie getting together someday and having kids with ridiculously generic names.

John Mellencamp and Elaine Hudson Mellencamp -- The rocker and the model separated in 2010, and their divorce was finalized on Aug. 12. The pair was married for 18 years and had two sons. John Mellencamp is reportedly dating actress Meg Ryan.

Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes named their daughter Suri, which means "princess."

Gwyneth Paltrow and husband, Coldplay frontman Chris Martin, went with Apple for their daughter's name -- we don't even want to think about the schoolyard taunts that title could prompt. They're also parents to son Moses.

Mariah Carey and husband Nick Cannon recently released the names of their twins -- son Moroccan, named for the Moroccan-themed decor in Carey's apartment, and daughter Monroe, for Marilyn Monroe, one of Carey's idols.

Singer Frank Zappa and wife Gail were the original out-there babynamers. They raised daughter Moon Unit and Diva Thin Muffin, as well as sons Dweezil and Ahmet Emuukha.
