[Opinions] Another Celeb BA
Adam Levine of Maroon 5 and his wife, Victoria's secret model Behati Prinsloo welcomed a daughter named Geo Grace Levine. They have a older daughter named Dusty Rose. Personally, I would have prefered Geo as a nickname for Georgia, Georgina, or Georgette or something. Its cute though for a celebirty baby. Geo reminds me too much of geology and stuff too now.Favorites Names

I'd have to agree with that one.I've also seen Geo used as an abbreviation for George in old documents and newspapers (back when George was one of the most common names for English-speaking men).

Neither of their daughter's first names sound very feminine to me... Though that could just be because they don't sound like they belong as names. And if you're going to have a theme, what dirt?The flow is nice, though.

You're so right! The theme is dirt! Haha...

I like it if its Gio, not as much as Geo. I'm not big on Grace but its at least fairly normal sounding. Better than Dusty Rose.

I thought it was Gio

Gio is even worse. A lot worse. I know it as an Italian nickname for Giorgio and it is then pronounced correctly with just one syllable and kind of sounds like Joe.

Oh dear, that really doesn't sound feminine in the slightest to me. Like that even less. Really, why not Gia?

reports are mixed.My guess is that it was originally reported as Geo but corrected to Gio and not everyone has caught up. Wikipedia says Geo, cites a People article where the URL is Geo-Grace, but it reroutes to the same article but with Gio-Grace in the URL.

People says Gio Grace, no hyphen.

The hyphen is the URL, not in the name itself. the url is like adam-levine-baby-gio-grace or whatever. i don't think i was unclear about this in my above post. I was bringing up the URL because it sort of proves that it was misreported by People originally-- if they had never written an adam-levin-baby-geo-grace article, that would be a 404 error

I'm not arguing with you, so I hope you don't think I am.

I love the connection to the earth, but Geo is otherwise deeply unappealing to me. Gaia would have been lovely.

I hate Grace, and I hope they don't call her GG / Gigi.Geo's nice imo, though. I like that it makes me think of Geology, and I like feminine names with O endings in general.

I don't think it's cute. It's like an abbreviation of geography or geology. Dusty Rose is pretty awful too, who likes a dusty rose? The color is nice but that is it. Grace is fine but it's weird with Geo. I also wouldn't like Geo as a nickname for Georgia, it is pronounced really differently and doesn't make sense to me. Georgia is nice. Sorry, I really dislike their style.

That’s so random. I like Geo/Gio for a boy... Gia sounds so similar, I would’ve just chosen that for a daughter.

as if the clichaed eighties wedding color Dusty Rose wasn't lame enough. Geo just doesn't even make sense as a name. It sounds like some kind of faith-based GPS system.
