Unique Baby Name Choices Made By Celebrity Moms This Year

  • Cyrus Michael Christopher, son of Claire Danes

    For their first child, actors Claire Danes and Hugh Dancy chose newly stylish ancient Persian hero name. Their boy?s more conventional middle names are related to Dancy?s family: <a href="http://nameberry.com/babyname/Michael" target="_blank">Michael</a> is one of his dad?s middle names, <a href="http://nameberry.com/babyname/Christopher" target="_blank">Christopher</a> was his maternal grandfather.

  • Clover Clementyne, daughter of Natasha Gregson

    The daughter of the late Natalie Wood ?whose birth name was Natalia, nicknamed Natasha?paid tribute to her famous mom by giving her baby a name referencing one of her signature roles, in the 1965 film Inside Daisy Clover. <a href="http://nameberry.com/babyname/Clover" target="_blank">Clover</a> is one of the new generation of appealing wildflower names.

Abrams and Bryan Burk at Bad Robot on April 10, 2013 in Santa Monica, California. (Photo by Stefanie Keenan/Getty Images for Coach)

  • Lincoln Bell, son of Kristen Bell

    Despite all the presidential surnames that have been given to girls in the past?from Madison to Taylor to Tyler to Kennedy?this one feels like a first. In a burst of <a href="http://nameberry.com/babyname/Lincoln" target="_blank">Lincoln</a> fever, Bell and fianc?e Dax Shepherd were quoted as saying they intended using the name whether the baby was a boy or a girl.

  • Lorenzo Dominic, son of Nicole (Snooki) Polizzi

    No one knew quite what the baby naming style of Jersey Shore?s Nicole ?Snooki? Polizzi might be, but there was nothing but approbation when she chose the handsome Italian classic <a href="http://nameberry.com/babyname/Lorenzo" target="_blank">Lorenzo</a>, which dates back to the Renaissance Medicis. Middle name Dominic was after an uncle of Nicole?s. Photo: Nicole "Snooki" Polizzi arrives at the MTV Movie Awards in Sony Pictures Studio Lot in Culver City, Calif., on Sunday April 14, 2013.

  • Marlowe Ottaline, daughter of Sienna Miller

    We like <a href="http://nameberry.com/babyname/Marlowe" target="_blank">Marlowe</a>, which is popping up all over the celebrisphere in a bunch of different spellings, but we LOVE the elegant Ottaline, which makes a great middle name choice.

  • Olive Barrymore, daughter of Drew Barrymore

    Following in the footsteps of Isla Fisher and Sacha Baron Cohen, Drew Barrymore and husband Will Kopelman picked this sophisticated alternative to the mega-popular <a href="http://nameberry.com/babyname/Olivia" target="_blank">Olivia</a>. Barrymore stated that she got the idea from a book she read when she was pregnant saying ?your baby is the size of an olive? -- and that was it.

  • Penelope Scotland, daughter of Kourtney Kardashian

    Reality star Kourtney gets a lot of credit for the phenomenal success of her first child Mason?s name, but with this one she?ll have to share it with other celebrity parents like Tina Fey and the Taylor Hansons -- along with actress Penelope Cruz. <a href="http://nameberry.com/babyname/Penelope" target="_blank">Penelope</a> is already in the Top 170, and looks to be climbing higher. Middle name Scotland was a clever way to honor the baby?s dad, Scott Disick.

  • Poppy James, daughter of Jessica Capshaw

    An unexpected but inspired combo -- the peppy, floral <a href="http://nameberry.com/babyname/Poppy" target="_blank">Poppy</a> followed by the boyish James. Poppy?s siblings are named Luke Hudson and Eve Augusta.

  • Tennessee James, son of Reese Witherspoon

    Reese Witherspoon?s name choice for her third child came as a surprise, one unlikely to be as influential as that of Ava, her firstborn. <a href="http://nameberry.com/babyname/Tennessee" target="_blank">Tennessee</a> is where Reese spent most of her childhood, and it?s her mother?s native state, which gives it personal meaning for her.

  • Memphis, son of Jemima Kirke

    Jemima Kirke, aka Jessa on Girls, named her new son <a href="http://nameberry.com/babyname/Memphis" target="_blank">Memphis</a>, supposedly prompting Lena Dunham to remark that he should have a play date with Reese Witherspoon?s Tennessee. Kirke also has a daughter named Rafaella Isreal, showing she has a real affinity for place names.

  • Violet Grace, daughter of Poppy Montgomery

    Sweet <a href="http://nameberry.com/babyname/Violet" target="_blank">Violet</a> carries on the tradition in mom Poppy?s family of using floral names for girls. The Without a Trace star?s sisters are called Rosie Thorn, Daisy Yellow, Lily Belle and Marigold Sun.

  • Wilhelmina Jane, daughter of Natalie Hanson

    The Taylor Hansons have had plenty of name-picking practice, and seem to be getting more adventurous each time. <a href="http://nameberry.com/babyname/Wilhelmina" target="_blank">Wilhelmina</a> Jane follows Jordan Ezra (Jordan being Taylor?s birth name), Penelope Anne, River Samuel and Viggo Moriah.
