The Crazy Rants of Samantha BurnsBut, I Bet They Nickname It Orange
Gwyneth Paltrow and Chris Martin just had a baby boy that they named Moses.
Many believe he was named after the ballad that Chris wrote after Gwyneth lost her father.
I, however, believe he was named for the wet flow from which he was drawn out of.
(pardon me if I offended)
So, I guess most of us were wrong about her naming it after a fruit like her daughter, Apple.
But, the name Moses is still pretty insane in this day and age, so she's lived up to her odd baby naming reputation.
(for those unaware, the biblical Moses' name means "to draw out" and the water reference is regarding him being placed as a baby in a basket and floating down the Nile River - well, I thought it was funny, anyhow)
Comments
At least Moses is an actual name with some tradition behind it and not a word that seems to be picked at random from the celebrity's copy of "My First Dictionary."
Still, the poor kid's still gonna get the crap kicked out of him in school.
I'm taking bets on the name of Brangelina's spawn, and the coming spawn of the TomKat.
Current lead for Brangelina:
Boy: Ash Pitt Girl: Peach Pitt
TomKat:
Boy: L. Ron Cruise Girl: Elle Ronnette Cruise

Actually, I thought the "wet flow" comment was referring to the parting of the amniotic fluid right before delivery.
Maybe they expect him to be a world class hurdler, a la Moses Malone?

I just naturally assumed that you were referring to conception-related "wet flow." Ugh, now *there* was an image I didn't need of Chris "eyes too far apart" Martin.
