What’s In A Name?



While we’re sure that names like Pilot Inspektor and Moon Unit Zappa, have some real cultural significance somewhere along the line,  and we’re equally certain that things like “normal “names don’t suit the rockers and movie icons because we wouldn’t be interested,  the names being laid on the newborns recently beg the question; don’t these people know that these kids have to actually LIVE with these names.

For example, Gwen Stefani’s new arrival, Zuma Nesta Rock, offers some real personal meaning to the family. Reportedly according to those with the “secret baby name decoder ring”, Zuma is the name of beach where a flash of insight told dad he wanted to be a rocker. Nesta is Bob Marley’s middle name… and so it goes.

While the name may have a great deal of significance to the couple, will it hold the same for the child, and does it for the general public?

In this case no. The Zuma Nesta Rock moniker forced on this little tyke,  until we were educated, rather sounded like the name of a music CD that never made the top ten.
