25. Hopper
When a congressmen submits a proposed bill in the House of Representatives, he or she puts it ceremoniously into the hopper, a brown wooden box located on the floor of the house.
Hopper is also the name of the son of Sean Penn and Robin Wright, which Penn said in a 2004 interview with
24. 
Apple
It's the forbidden fruit, it'll keep the doctor away and it's the epitome of Americanism. But Apple is also the name of Gwyneth Paltrow and Chris Martin's first daughter. They got the idea from one of Martin's band mates, who also has a child named Apple.
In an interview with Oprah, Paltrow said that she liked how it sounded "wholesome" and "clean." Pictured is Gwyneth and Apple.
23. Poppy Honey, Daisy Boo and Petal Blossom Rainbow
Leave it to a renowned chef to bring in vibrant names to the table when naming their children. Jamie Oliver and his wife, Jools, named their daughters Poppy, Daisy and Petal. Apparently the floral motif is big for naming in the Oliver clan.
22. Calico, Dash and Sonora
What name purrs like a kitten? Alice Cooper and wife Sheryl's daughter Calico. But move over, commonly colored cat, this Calico is a talented singer and actress. Cooper's penchant for unusual names also extended to his other kids, Dash and
21. Sage Moonblood and Seargeoh
When you hear the names of this pair, you can't help but get stuck on Sage Moonblood. What does that even mean? But look past it, and see Seargeoh ... then picture dad
Sylvester Stallone pronouncing it. It just fits.
20. Aurelius
Back in the time of the Romans, Aurelii was the name of an elite group of families. Aurelius was the male version of the name, and it's also the name of the youngest son of Australian supermodel Elle Macpherson and Arpad Busson (who's now engaged to Uma Thurman).
19. Blue Angel
Some people name their children after family members, others name them for Biblical figures. But U2's The Edge and Aislinn O'Sullivan? They went for Blue Angel. Sounds like a clothing line, doesn't it?
18. Bluebell Madonna
Back in the late 90s, the Spice Girls were known for their shrinking hemlines and get-up-and-move music. These days though, many of the Spice Girls have taken on a new role: mom.
Geri Halliwell ("Ginger Spice") is no exception ... and her daughter's name pays homage to both music and beautiful flowers: Bluebell Madonna. The British mother-daughter duo are pictured left.
17. Fifi TrixibellE, Peaches and Pixie
File this one under "What were they thinking??". Bob Geldof and Paula Yates named their firstborn daughter Fifi Trixibelle.
Meanwhile, their other daughters fared no better with Peaches Honeyblossom and Pixie. The late Paula Yates went on to have one more daughter, this one with (also late) INXS lead singer Michael Hutchence. The child is known as Tiger, which is a whole lot simpler to remember than her given name: Heavenly Hiraani Tiger Lily.
16. Destry
Somewhere between destiny and destroy is Steven Spielberg and Kate Capshaw's daughter Destry.
15. Diezel Ky
Alternate spellings can be a cool way to customize a name, and that's what Toni Braxton and Keri Lewis did with their son, Diezel Ky. Diezel's older brother is named Denim Cole.
14. Willow Camille Reign
Back in the 90s, Will Smith was best known as the Fresh Prince, so it's pretty darn appropriate that he and wife Jada Pinkett-Smith incorporated a royal moniker like Reign into their daughter's name.
13. Marquise
There is something mighty noble about rapper 50 Cent's son's name, Marquise. The word means French nobleman.
12. Zola Ivy
Parents Eddie Murphy and Nicole Mitchell created one of those names that flows nicely together, although it's an unexpected combination. The name? Zola Ivy. Eddie Murphy's other kids include Bella Zahra, Shane Audra,
11. Tallulah, Scout and Rumer
You can't bring one of Bruce Willis and Demi Moore's children into the name list without the other two. The couple, who divorced in 2000, named their kids Tallulah, Scout and Rumer. And boy, did Demi make rumors when she started dating her current husband, Ashton Kutcher -- who is 16 years her junior.
10. Ocean
There is something poetic about
9. Shiloh Nouvel
Parents of six, Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie, have a cache of unusual names, but their biological daughter Shiloh's name takes the cake in the clan (siblings include Maddox, Zahara, Pax, Knox and Vivienne). Pictured is
8. Seven Sirius, Puma Sabti and Mars Merkaba
Naming a baby really is serious business. When Andre Benjamin and Erykah Badu named their son, they took that to heart with Seven Sirius (say it outloud). Badu has since given birth to two more kids, Puma (hello, sneakers!) and Mars (the red planet?).
7. Satchel
Babies are so cute, you just want to scoop them up and keep them close. Maybe that's why Spike Lee and Tonya Lewis Lee named their child for bag that's great for carrying things: Satchel.
6. Kyd
David Duchovny and Tea Leoni spared no creativity here, naming thier son ... wait for it ... wait for it ... Kyd. Guess that makes calling the child over a cinch.
5. Moxie CrimeFighter and Zolten
Illusionist Penn Jillette isn't fooling anyone with the unusual names for his kids: Moxie CrimeFighter and Zolten. Do you think Zolten is a CrimeFighter with Moxie?
4. Pilot Inspektor
Some things just aren't intended to be names. Sometimes, if you want to choose an unusal name, it's better to balance it with a more traditional name. Of course, Jason Lee and Beth Riesgraf didn't get that memo when they named Pilot Inspektor.
3. Kal-El
Superman has a fan in Nicholas Cage, who named his son Kal-El ... which is the first name of the Man of Steel.
2. Jermajesty
Jerm-Jerma .... no, no, no. This name is pronounced like Her Majesty, but with a J at the start of it. That one comes from parents Jermaine Jackson and Alejandra Genevieve Oaziaza. 'Nuff said.
1. Moon Unit, Dweezil and Diva Muffin
You can't have a list of unusual celebrity baby names without mentioning the kids of Frank Zappa -- Moon Unit, Dweezil and Diva Muffin. The man is a pioneer in the naming division, for sure.
