Shiloh Nouvel Jolie Pitt

...which of course is Angie and Brad's new baby's name. Whaddya think? Good or bad? At first glance, I thought "UGH, isn't that more of a pet's name?" But then when I said it aloud and thought about it, the name as a whole really does sound lovely.

Shiloh - Hebrew.  Last I heard, it meant 'place of peace'.

As in, the Battle of Shiloh - one of the bloodiest battles of the American Civil War.  O0

Angie's mother is French, so I think the middle name is a homage to her.

I think Shiloh is a pretty, non-gender-specific name.

Not sure what the Pitt's back home in Missourah are going to think of these names.  8)

Well - "Shiloh" if pronounced Shyloh.. is okay I guess.. sounds a bit like 'shy' and 'low', but what do I care. Better than "Suri" (TomKat kid for those not in the know..) - sounds like 'mouse' in French.. (and means a lot of strange stuff in different languages, I once read).

"Nouvel" on the other hand I don't understand.. Is it a gender-unspecific thing or what? If their baby is a girl, it should be "Nouvelle"..  ???  ??? But I really don't care...  ;D

Also, I know now why Gwyneth Paltrow called her daughter "Apple"! It's one of the codes in "The Da Vinci Code"! But I still don't care, really..  ::)

A friend here said he read an article this morning that claimed it means "the next Messiah."  Don't know if that's pure tabloid crapola (is that redundant) or it's actually true.  Nouvel = new or upcoming, Shiloh = Messiah.

Jeez.  And I thought the evangelicals around here were arrogant...

"Dag burn it!  Brad's gone totally Hollywood.  Next thing ye know, he'll be naming his kid Apple."

Heh, I heard Gwenyth Paltrow named her kids 'Moses' and 'Apple' because they were 'biblical'.

(apple = garden of eden/forbidden fruit  ::)  sorry, Gwennie, that's not the first thing that pops to mind when people hear someone's name is 'apple'.  What's wrong with Eve or Eden?).

Though, a relative who goes to Catholic School was vehement and declared flatly that the word 'apple' is no where in the Genesis story at all.  It's described as a 'fruit'.  Guess Gwennie didn't want to name her daughter 'Fruit'.

You know, Barbara is one of those names *no one* names their girls anymore.  Leslie, too.  I hear of a Victoria here and there, though.  And David, Jeffrey (or Geoffrey) and Christopher are still happenin'.  But unless you have a real penchant for naming your daughter after a relative, I don't see Barbara happenin' again for a long time.  If ever.  At least not in this country.  Oh, and by the way, that truly *is* Hebrew, meaning "foreign" or "strange."  Ain't DAT the truth?  ;)

Too true! A colleague of mine had her baby boy yesterday and they called him David! Father is Spanish, mother Belgian. Another colleague had a girl on Monday and she's called Serena. I like it!

Kelda, I agree! I like 'odd' names too. But there are limits!  ::) I like your nieces and sisters name! And yours!

Regardless whether you like them or not, you have to give it to them.  They know how to play this game, and the money is going to a good cause.

I just realized that the photos are not officially released in here, so I took down the pictures.

Yep.  They've been in the biz long enough now.  They know what they're doing.

Sweet pics btw.

Yep, kid's got nice lips   ;D

Gemini eh?  Thanks vic.  I know very little about astrology.  Kid was born at the end of May, is she a Gemini too?

Thanks SO much for the pics Jenny!  Little Shiloh looks better.

Just saw on the news that Brangelina gave their first ever interview together to a local Namibian newsstation.

What a scoop for them!

Those two must be very very very grateful to the people of Namibia.  I think by themselves, they've increased Namibia's GNP.

Their generous philanthropy to Namibia will be hard to top and is beyond words.  Who knows how many people's lives they've bettered or helped or will help in the future?

Nice point, Del. I don't make a point of defending celebrities, but I had to jump to Brangelina's defence yesterday when my mother openly scorned the couple for "prostituting their newborn for cash". And i quickly pointed out that if EITHER Brad or Angelina surrendered their individual fortune, the other would have more than enough cash for 10 familiies to live comfortably for 50 years, so its unlikely they took such a large sum for padding their own bank accounts. And then I pointed out they turned every cent they made over to African Aid.

That shut er up!!

You know, I can't stand it when celebrities give some organisation a cash donation then claim they're tireless charity workers. People like Brad and Ange seem to REALLY care and show it not only with their wallets, but with their time and their actions. Good on them. They should be proud of what they're doing.
Chut up!

They do indeed put their money where their mouths are.  What they're giving is an enormous chunk of money.

Saw a pic in Star I think of Brad's parents showing up in Namibia to visit the baby (this was before they left).  They didn't look very happy.  :-\
