The Top 10 Celebrity Baby Names of All Time

10. ALEXA RAY, girl - Christie Brinkley and Billy Joel
SAILOR LEE, boy - Christie Brinkley and Peter Cooke

There is nothing extradorinary about the name Alexa Ray. In fact I kind of think it is a rather beautiful, though still unique, baby's name. It is, however, also the name of Billy Joel's boat (on a side note, I have actually seen this vessel and it's not as glamorous as one would expect). So, by the time the former model, Christie Brinkley, have moved on to husband number three and had her second daughter, I guess she had this on her mind. She named the next girl Sailor Lee, notice the nautical reference. It is also interesting to point out that both of these children have two word names with exactly the same amount of letters. But when I think about it, I guess that's not all that interesting at all.


9. ZOWIE, boy - David Bowie and first wife

Just say it out loud, "Zowie Bowie". It's fun, isn't it? Long before Daivid Bowie moved onto the ultra cool super model ectomorph, Iman, Ziggy Stardust had procreated with a, seemingly less provocative (inasmuch as woman who don't have made up, single syllable names like Iman or Nico are "less provocative"), girl whose name was simply Angela Bowie. Born in 1971, there is more than a little confusion about the lineage of this rock star child's name. Apparently, David Bowie was cool with him changing it from Zowie to Joey when he was 12, and for that- I'm pretty cool with Bowie as well. By 1992, he went by just Joe and by 1995, after graduating from college he, inexplicably, was going by Duncan Jones. On a completely unrelated related note, Zowie Bowie is allegedly the name of a current cover band featuring a husband and wife duo that spend too much time at the gym. It's not clear whether or not they cover any pre or post Stardust era Bowie.


8. NICO BLUE, girl - Shannon Hoon
