Shilo Pitt >>> Pilo S...
Exactly what were Brangelina thinking when they named her? She will be tortured in school over this.

She'll be fine. She'll probably end up going to school with Kal-el Coppola, Pilot Inspektor Lee, Moxie Crimefighter Gillette, and Poppy Honey Oliver.

Don't forget little brother Moses Martin. And of course Sean Preston Federline, who doesn't need a stupid name to have a target on his forehead.

And, while I find no fault with this name due to the ethnic heritage of its bearer, there's Dakota Starblanket Wolfchild the child of Buffy St. Marie and Sheldon Wolfchild.

The funny thing is how normal that sounds now. LOL. I love Buffy, she's so pretty. I remember her being on Sesame Street.

Ethic is one thing (I actually like the name Dakota), my daughter doesn't have the looks to be a Jennifer or Susie, which is why we picked a Hispanic name...insane is another (Moxie Crimefighter  ).

Jennifer is THE name for Latin girls in the Bronx!! (and no, not just stupid azz J-Lo - REAL girls "from the Bronx").
My children, who also will not probably look too Anglo, might have Spanish name - but ones that can be Anglicized (Alejandro = Alex). That way both sides of the family can pronounce it right.

Oh god. I know the Coppola, but who are the other children's parents?
I wana rock the pure dago names... Isabella and Rosalia. And maybe a little Attiana- sounds Italian but don't really know the origin. Just know that I LOVED the name when I heard it on Meet the Barkers.

Agree with Kathy on this one. 6 years of going to school in Bronx taught me that Jennifer and Jessica are quite popular there. (Or Yennifer and Yessica if you prefer.) We actually had a girl in my HS who's legal name was Yennifer.

I have asked dear husband about this - why do your people love an English name so much that is so difficult for them to pronounce? He thinks this is an excellent question but, alas, has no answer.

We keep forgetting the infamous Suri Cruise.
I personally like Shiloh better than Suri.
When I say Suri it reminds me of the song from Oklahoma about a Surrey.

This is certainly not a trend. Does anyone remember Frank Zappa and his brood?
