[Opinions] Reese and Ryan do it right, I think (m) EDITED
in reply to a message by Kate
Reese Witherspoon and Ryan Phillippe withAva Elizabeth Phillippe
and
Deacon _________ PhillippeI like that they go classic and with Elizabeth is an expected mn, Ava as a fn - when Reese had her... wasn't too popular then. I liked that. And Deacon is different but not insane (like Shannyn Sossamon's son Pilot Inspektor) and almost classic. I like that. I'd love for them to have more children, they are seriously my favorite Hollywood couple EVER.Will and Jada are pretty cool too (btw did you know Will Smith's full name is Willard? I just found that out!) with little Will III, Jaden (popular now but not so much when they used it), and little Willow Camille (before Willow was trendy too - I mostly just like Camille...).
edit: I seriously can't believe I forgot this woman's daughter because she gave her daughter my all-time favorite girl name EVER - Monica Bullucci and Vincent Cassel's little girl DEVA. That's right. I liked the name before they used it though! PS: as a freaky side note - I wrote a short story in '99 with a main character named Deva and it so really popular in my school magazine that my local drama club wanted to turn it into a play. To be courteous in casting they asked me what they should look for when casting Deva and I said "Someone who looks like Monica Bellucci"... so I was like "oh. my. God." when I heard she had a daughter and named her Deva. That's an eery coinkydink, there.

LOL about Deva. Strangeness. :)I like Reese and Ryan's children's names, too. I have to disagree with Will and Jada, though. They named their children all variations on their own names. Boring and somewhat egotistical, no? That's up there with the Foremans to me. Yuck. (I like Camille, though.)

I think it's sweet how Will and Jada did it, though.A son named Jaden and a daughter named Willow, before either name was popular? It's much more creative than George Foreman's many Georges. Their family seems like an updated version of the old tradition of naming the first son for the father and the first daughter after the mother, and I think that's neat.Array

You might even provide a Heaven for them. We need You for that. Hell we can make for ourselves.Russ Feingold is a hero.

I suppose, but the names for family I would use wouldn't be me or DH. I'd skip a generation, but that's just me.Also, if it were just Jaden and Willow it would be better, but when you have a Will as well, then it gets redundant.I agree that it is better than the Georges, but it's the same idea at work.
