**A* celebrity baby names**

We all know that celebs can’t help themselves when it comes to creative and unusual baby names.

There would be too many to list them all, but here are a few honourable mentions:

Name: Apple Martin
Inspiration: the fruit

The daughter of Gwyneth Paltrow and Chris Martin was given a name that’s sure to keep the doctors away.

Apparently it was Martin’s idea. Paltrow thought it sounded “so sweet, and it conjured such a lovely picture for me, you know. Apples are so sweet and they’re wholesome, and it’s biblical”.

The apple in the Bible wasn’t exactly sweet or wholesome, but each to their own we guess.

Name: Bryce Dallas Howard
Inspiration: the city

Ron Howard wins the Most Embarrassing Father award hands down, as all of his children have a middle name inspired by where they were conceived!

That’s Bryce Dallas Howard, Paige Carlyle Howard and Jocelyn Carlyle Howard (twins who share a name with the New York City hotel) and Reed Cross Howard (inspired by the street name of the Howard household).

THERE’S £16,000 TO BE WON EVERY FRIDAY AND SATURDAY IN THE PARIS ROOM

Name: Rex Swash
Inspiration: the dinosaur

There’s nothing dated about this prehistoric name. Stacey Solomon revealed that her son’s name was inspired by the Tyrannosaurus rex, after his big brothers compared the sounds that he made to that of a dinosaur.
