Boys names ending in “O” are the latest trend in celebrity-inspired baby names. Johnny Knoxville of Jackass fame named his son, born in 2011, Arlo, who joins brother Rocko. Actress Toni Collette also gave birth to an Arlo in 2011. Also on the ends-in-O list: Alyssa Milano and son Milo Thomas, Penelope Cruz and son Leo.
If you lean more toward classic names, so do these stars:
- Grace Margaret, daughter of Mark Wahlberg and Rhea Durham
- Ethel Mary, daughter to Lily Allen and Sam Cooper
- Andrew, adopted son to Mariska Hargitay and Peter Hermann
- Penelope, daughter of Tina Fey and Jeffrey Richmond
- Robert, son to Owen Wilson and Jade Duell
Or, maybe you prefer future-CEO sounding names, such as:
- Harper Grace and Gideon Scott, twins born by surrogate to Neil Patrick Harris and David Burtka
- Easton, son of Jenna and Bodhi Elfman
- Nelson and twin brother Eddy (whose name fits in the previous category), twins to Céline Dion and René Angélil
- Mason to musician Ne-Yo and Monyetta Shaw
- Bingham, son to Kate Hudson and Matthew Bellamy
- Bennett, son to Jane Krakowski and Robert Godley
- Flynn, son to Orlando Bloom and Miranda Kerr
If a name ending in “a” fits well with your baby’s last name, consider the names these celebrities gave to their baby girls:
- Aviana Olea, Amy Adams and Darren Legallo
- Olivia Marie, Lance Armstrong and Anna Hansen
- Stella Zavala, Matt Damon and Luciana Bozà¡n Barroso
- Gia Francesca, Mario Lopez and Courtney Laine Mazza
- Vida, Matthew McConaughey and Camila Alves
