“Tell me what his name is!”: the strangest names of the children of the stars. Angel, Muse, Yermolai: the most unusual names of children of stars strange names of children of celebrities golden honey
Zhukov Angel Sergeevich - that is the name of the eldest son of the soloist of the group "Hands Up". He explains such an unusual choice of name by the fact that he came across signs everywhere indicating that it was necessary to name his son that way.
“By and large, this is also a Christian name - Angel,” says Sergey. The singer is sure that in the future his son will not experience difficulties associated with his unusual name: “I think that we will definitely come to the conclusion that we, like abroad, will not have middle names. In addition, if you notice, in so many documents there is no longer a middle name column. And Angel Zhukov, in my opinion, sounds very good. In addition, I think he will travel a lot or even live abroad, so it will even be easier for him with that name.”
Nikita Dzhigurda: daughter Eva-Vlad and son Mik-Angel Krist
Nikita Dzhigurda is outrageous in everything, even in paternity. He named his children, born in marriage to figure skater Marina Anisina, Eva-Vlad and.
“Angel is an angel and Krist is Christ. After all, my son was born on Christmas Day,” said the artist.
As for the name Eva-Vlad, his parents also came up with an ulterior motive. “The name Eva really likes Marinka, and Vlada means “power”. Since Eva means Eve, the meaning of this connection sounds like the power of the first-born woman, who, before the so-called fall into sin, already knew who she was and in the name of what she lives. Besides, Eva was not ashamed of anything. I imagine it like this: a free woman was born who will drive men crazy!” Dzhigurda is sure.
Olga Shelest: daughters Muse and Iris
Prefers to give children rare names and TV presenter Olga Shelest. She named her eldest daughter Musa. “Alexey always liked this name (director Alexei Tishkin - Olga's husband. - Note. ed.), because it is "inspiration", and a creative person cannot do without it, - Shelest noted. - Therefore, when the question arose of choosing a name for our daughter, my husband immediately suggested this option. But calling a child Inspiration is too long, but Muse is just right. Grandmothers call their granddaughter Muzonka, and my friends - in the English manner, Music, that is, Music.
The youngest daughter of the TV presenter has an equally rare name - Iris. “Now in our family there is also - Iris (Iris is translated from Greek as a rainbow. In ancient Greek mythology: the goddess of the rainbow, the messenger of the gods), and no Milon will forbid us!” Olga wrote on her Instagram.
Anna Khilkevich: daughter Arianna
The star of the series "Univer" Anna Khilkevich also surprised fans for the child. She is a daughter, which means "holy" in Greek. Later, the artist and her husband discovered another interesting detail: it turned out that they also named the baby after each other.
Valeria Gaius Germanicus: daughters of Severin and Octavia
Director Valeria Gai Germanika has always been distinguished by her original approach to filming movies and TV shows, her style of dress and her attitude to life in general. Therefore, hardly anyone was surprised when it became known that she chose unusual names for her children.
Valeria named her eldest daughter Octavia. “I don’t like Katya, Masha, all these traditional names. In Soviet times, maybe it was easier for a child to live with that name. Now everything is different. In addition, in my world, the name is quite normal and ordinary, ”the director explained.
Valeria did not change herself in the matter of choosing a name for the youngest child. She named her daughter, which in Latin means "strict and serious."
Anastasia Volochkova: daughter of Ariadne
The ballerina even dreamed of calling her Anna in honor of her grandmother, but later the star changed her mind, wanting to give the child a rarer old name. As the ballerina said, once she was in the temple and accidentally found herself in front of the icon of the holy martyr Ariadne. Considering this as a sign from above, she decided to name her daughter that way.
The name is of Greek origin, meaning "one that commands respect." Volochkova's relatives approved of her choice and affectionately call her Arisha, and her grandmother is called the Scarlet Flower.
Lera Tumanova: daughter Aria
Singer Lera Tumanova and her husband, actor Pavel Kotov, have been looking for a name for their daughter for a long time. The couple wanted it not only to be rare, but also to sound special.
“Pavel told me that he wants my name Valery to be consonant with the name of my daughter, that is, it contained, for example, the letters “a”, “r”. We began to search, sorted out, Adrian and so on, but everything was not right. Then, quite by accident, they opened a directory of names, in which I saw a male name, it is translated from ancient Greek as a warrior or a lion. We really liked the female version of this name - Aria. It is associated with such concepts as strength, courage, honesty. I realized that with such a name, my daughter will definitely not be weak. In addition, I liked that in Russia Aria will still be associated with music. And this also makes sense, because we have a musical family: my husband is an actor, director of an operetta, I am a singer.
According to Lera, at home they affectionately call their daughter Arichka, but more often they still try to Aria. Relatives sometimes try to call the girl, but the singer and her husband stop such attempts, because this is a completely different name.
“I am sure that my daughter, when she grows up, will not be ashamed of this name. I think that Aria Kotova sounds bright, beautiful and dignified, ”the girl’s mother says.
Love for foreign countries: Martin, Jean, Monica, Yasmine
Historically, it so happened that many of our compatriots have a special weakness for everything foreign. Movie and show business stars are no exception. It has become especially fashionable among them to call children by foreign names. For example, she gave her son the name Mike, the child's name is Martin, and the eldest daughter is Yasmin.
Katya Gordon - Anna Sedokova's daughter - Monica, and Victoria Boni - Angelina Letizia. In the last two cases, there is logic in choosing a name - Sedokova and Bonya spend most of their time abroad, where no one is surprised by the names of their children. But other celebrities still live in Russia, where such names sound, to put it mildly, unusual.
However, star parents do not see anything wrong with this. Here is what TV presenter Ksenia Borodina wrote in response to some fans criticizing her for naming her youngest daughter Thea: “I have already seen a couple of emoticons on the topic of the name and again some advice. Guys, this is not true, this is personal, and only parents decide what their child's name will be! We are happy with the name choice. Literal translation of the name Anna. - A few years later I was expecting a son. One day, Oleg and I (Oleg Kapustin, the husband of the actress. - Note. ed.) once again sorted out the names for the boy. And suddenly, when I said “Dobrynya”, the baby, who was in my stomach, began to actively push. He seemed to be giving us a sign that this particular name suits him. “Well, since the son wants to be Dobrynya, so be it,” the husband smiled at that moment.
The actress herself is the owner of a rare Russian name, so she also decided to name the children accordingly: Gordey, Yermolai and Korney.
Star couples give birth to children, like ordinary mortals. And in the same way they face the problem of choosing a name for the baby. Just like everyone else, famous parents want it to be beautiful, capacious, and memorable. The other day, singer Nyusha declassified the name of her daughter. The star named the baby Simba. The news provoked a storm of discussions on the Web. We found out which other Russian celebrities gave children unusual names.
Nyusha
daughter Simba Last November, Nyusha became a mother for the first time. The daughter of the singer and her husband Igor Sivov was born. For a long time, the couple did not disclose the name of the baby, and only recently in an interview with Hello! decided to tell about what name the girl received. As it turned out, the baby was named Simba. “No one has such a combination, it sounds beautiful. At one time, I changed my name in my passport, I did not want to remain Anna, because this is the most common name. And now my daughter is one of a kind, ”said the star. She also added that such a rare name was not chosen by chance. “My husband and I like The Lion King, and it’s great that people will associate it with this cartoon,” Nyusha added.Anastasia Volochkova
daughter Ariadne
At first, Anastasia wanted to name her daughter in honor of her grandmother Anna. But then she changed her mind and gave her a rare name - Ariadne. The ballerina's mother is delighted with the name of her granddaughter, at home the girl's name is Arisha. Another name, unusual for a simple ear, was chosen for her daughter by actress Natalya Gromushkina and her husband. The girl was named Iliana. Sergey Zhukov
son angel
The former lead singer of the Hands Up group was very much looking forward to the birth of his son, since he had already had daughters twice. In the name of his son, he thanked God for the joy, the boy was named Angel (Angel). In 2014, he had another son, who was given the name Miron. Nikita Dzhigurda
daughter Eva-Vlada and son Mik-Angel Krist
The outrageousness of Nikita Dzhigurda made itself felt in paternity. From the poetess Yana Pavelkovskaya, he has two sons, whose names are Artemy-Dobrovlad and Ilya-Maximilian. Married to Marina Anissina, he had a daughter, Eva-Vlada, and a son, Mick-Angel Krist. Eva means the name Eve, and Vlad means power. The power of the first-born woman, so explained the name of Anisin's daughter. But the boy was named that because he was born on Christmas (Christmas, Krist), like an angel (Angel). Mick was named by his mother. Alsou
daughters of Safin and Mikell
Alsou in the name of her eldest daughter secured her maiden name - Safina. It was her mother who gave her the idea. And the second girl was named Mikella, after a long discussion with her husband Yan Abramov, who at first wanted to name his daughter Yanina. Valeria Gai-Germanika
daughters Severin and Octavia
Immediately after the birth of her first daughter, the director answered all the curious that she named her daughter Octavia just like that, for no reason. By the way, initially she planned to give the girl the name Lucrezia or Agrippina, but when she looked at the newborn, she realized that she was the spitting image of Octavia. So, when the second daughter was born, who was named Severina, there were no more questions about the meaning of the name. Anna Kovalchuk
daughter Zlata and son Dobrynya
Anna Kovalchuk did not follow the path of her colleagues and gave the children beautiful old names - Zlata and Dobrynya. By the way, Dobrynya deserves his name, the boy was born a real hero weighing 4,500! Svetlana Loboda
Evangeline's daughter
Singer Svetlana Loboda faced a choice - to name her daughter Sofia or Evangelina. I liked both names and the choice was extremely difficult. Here the daughter herself helped: when her mother called her Eve (short for Evangeline), the baby smiled broadly. By the way, the daughter of the actress Amalia & Amalia is also called Evangelina. Eva Polna
daughters Amalia and Evelyn
The singer herself bears a rather rare name and called the girls unbanal. But the outrageous Sergei Shnurov turned to the classics, his daughter's name is Seraphim, and his son's name is Apollo. Olga Shelest
daughters Musa and Iris
TV presenter Olga Shelest says that she and her husband, clip maker Alexei Tishkin, came up with a very successful name for their eldest daughter. Muse is an inspiration for both parents. By the way, the English-speaking friends of the couple call the girl Music - music. The second daughter was named Iris, which means rainbow in Greek. Suri Cruise - daughter of Katie Holmes and Tom Cruise, August 20, 2017When there are 7 billion people on the planet, finding a unique name for your child is not an easy task. But these stars did not give in to difficulties and still managed to find truly unusual names for their children. We tell you what inspired Beyoncé, Victoria Beckham, Jessica Alba and other celebrities and how their children could be called in Russia.
Blue Ivy, Sir and Rumi (children of Beyoncé and Jay-Z)
The star couple of Beyoncé Jay-Z was waiting for their first child with such trepidation that they took care of the name of the baby in advance. The girl was named the romantic name Blue Ivy, which means "blue ivy" in English. And although many still do not understand why it was necessary to name the child in honor of the plant, the main thing in the name of the girl is that several important codes of the Carter family are encrypted in it at once. The first part of the name comes from the favorite color of Jay-Z, and the second (Ivy) contains the Roman numeral 4 (IV) - sacred, both for the singer and for her husband, who were both born on the fourth day (albeit in different months ), and got married on April 4, 2008.
The name Blue Ivy has already been patented - as, in fact, the names of her newborn brother and sister. The couple named the twins Sir and Rumi. The first name in nature has not yet existed, and the second one is too rare and is used mainly among South Asian peoples, so there were no problems with registration.
Apple (daughter of Gwyneth Paltrow and Chris Martin)
No, Gwyneth Paltrow and Chris Martin are not such fans of the brainchild of Steve Jobs to name their child after him. In one of the interviews, the actress admitted that the name Apple (“Apple”) came to her mind quite by accident and caused her such warm and joyful associations that she didn’t want to think about any other option. Now the girl is 13 years old, but, we must pay tribute to Gwyneth's upbringing - Apple received her first "apple" gadget, almost the last in the class.
By the way, Gwyneth and Chris also have a son. However, for him, the couple decided not to invent anything new and called him the well-known (but no less original) name - Moses.
Suri (daughter of Katie Holmes and Tom Cruise)
Suri has everything - only the most exclusive: clothes, shoes, accessories and even a name. Until recently, "Suri" was only a common surname, but probably the parents of the young Miss Cruz liked the translation of this word so much that they decided to set their own fashion for baby names.
Brooklyn, Harper Seven, Romeo and Cruz (children of David and Victoria Beckham)
I must say that the Bekhmeov couple approached the name of each of their offspring with imagination. Perhaps only Romeo can be called a peculiar exception - despite the fact that this name is not very popular these days, it is at least known to the general public, thanks to the legacy of Shakespeare.
The name Harper is also known: naming her daughter like that, Victoria was inspired by her favorite writer Harper Lee. However, the parents did not give up on the idea of making the girl's name truly unique and supplemented Harper's name with a second one - Seven (in honor of David's Manchester United number).
As for the eldest son of Brooklyn, here the origin of the boy's name is the most obvious - 18 years ago he was conceived in this area of New York. The Beckhams' source of inspiration when choosing a name for 12-year-old Cruise is just as obvious - yes, the British couple did indeed name their son after their close friend Tom Cruise. By the way, Victoria and David previously patented the names of all their four children in order to produce lines of clothing and accessories under their “brands”.
Pilot Inspector (son of Jason Lee and Beth Riesgraf)
But the star of the series "My name is Earl" seems to have outdone everyone by naming his son ... Pilot Inspector. There is no doubt that such an unusual name came to mind for him, and not for his fiancee Beth, because what woman would think of naming her child after the song of an indie rock band? On the other hand, Beth nevertheless accepted the extravagant taste of the groom for children's names, unlike, by the way, the next beloved Jason Serena. So now the glorious kids Sonny, Kasper, Elberta and ... Pilot Inspector are brought up in the actor's family.
Moroccan and Monroe (daughters of Mariah Carey and Nick Cannon)
Another Hollywood star twins, Moroccan and Monroe Cannon, in terms of the degree of unusualness of their names, completely give odds to Rumi and Sir. Everything seems to be clear with the daughter of Mariah and Nick Monroe - the baby got her name in honor of the legendary Marilyn. It turned out the same situation as with Cruz Beckham - no matter how much Victoria and David wanted to flatter their friend, the name Tom is still too common for their unique son. The name Marilyn is also not too exclusive, but the surname is very even (especially if it is used as a name).
But the history of the name Moroccan is strange in every sense. The fact is that the girl got her name not even in honor of the country, but in honor - attention! - the room where Nick proposed to Mariah. The room was decorated in Moroccan style, so the couple probably wanted to encode their love story in the name of the baby.
Elula, Olive and Montgomery (children of Isla Fisher and Sacha Baron Cohen)
I must say that the star of the movie "Shopaholic" herself has a rather unusual name (she was named after the Scottish island of Islay), so, obviously, the actress decided to make her children just as exclusive. The degree of "uniqueness" increased from the oldest child to the youngest. The oldest daughter of the acting couple is called Olive - the name is not the rarest, but still not as hackneyed as Olivia. The couple decided to name their second daughter in honor of August, the month in which she was born. However, “Augustina” seemed to the actors too common, so without thinking twice, they climbed into the Jewish calendar (after all, both are Jews), looked at how August is called there, and eventually named the girl Elula.
Finally, when choosing a name for their youngest son, the couple decided to combine two trends for star baby names at once and immediately named the child after a famous surname and after a geographical area - Montgomery.
Kal-El (son of Nicolas Cage and Alice Kim)
How to name a child? This question occupies all future parents. Some choose familiar names, others - unusual ones. Let's look at the birth certificates of children of Russian stars.
Alla Pugacheva and Maksim Galkin raising a son and a daughter. 4 year old baby name Harry we found it unusual. It is derived from the old French name Henry (Heinrich). However, now the names of Harry and Henry are independent.

Polina Gagarina did not participate. By the way, before the birth of her daughter, the singer considered other names.

Singer and mother of many children Alsou called all the children beautiful unusual names: daughters - Safina and Michaela, son - Rafael. Note that the name of the eldest girl is the surname of her mother, with the difference that the stress is placed on the second syllable.
The desire to give your child an unusual name is normal. In the end, each person is unique, why not invent the same name, the one and only? In the Soviet Union, the names Vladlen, Oktyabrina, Waterpezhekosma, Vanguard, Aurora and Persostratus were often encountered. The origin of the names was different - ethnic, revolutionary, space, in honor of leaders, heroes of cult films, etc. Rich in fantasy and modern parents, who as soon as they do not name their children: Angelina, Rosiyana, Vladiput , Millionaire, Gus and even… Viagra.
The portal site has compiled a selection, which includes Russian and foreign stars, who gave free rein to their fantasies and chose strange names for their offspring.
old names
Dmitry Pevtsov and Olga Drozdova, Maria Shukshina, Lyubov Tikhomirova, Maria Poroshina, Valeria Gai Germanika, Sergey Shnurov and Tutta Larsen called their children rare ancient names
Perhaps the most common category of rare names among star kids is Old Russian. Slavic name Lyubava called her daughter an actress Lyubov Tikhomirova and her ex-husband, conductor-choirmaster Laszlo Dolinski. According to the artist, she decided on an unusual name when she was in her second month of pregnancy, and it was not even clear who would be born to her - a girl or a boy.
“Laszlo and I then simply sorted out the names that, first of all, are most beautifully combined with the middle name Laslovna or Laslovich,” recalls Tikhomirova. - And in the end, in the female version, they settled on Lyubava. It turned out that my husband still really wanted his daughter's name to be in tune with mine. But at the same time, it did not repeat it, but was slightly different. So when the girl was born, the name for her was already ready.
Another celebrity couple Dmitry Pevtsov and Olga Drozdova- named their common son, born in 2007, with a rare old name Elisha. In the first months of pregnancy, Olga suggested naming the boy Tikhon, because the baby in her stomach behaved very calmly. Later, the boyish nature took its toll: the baby began to push, toss and turn, and the “quiet” name lost its relevance. “My wife and I chose his name according to the holy calendar - Elisha,” Dmitry admitted. “It is so sonorous and so Russian that it seems that there could be no other choice.”
But the TV presenter named her children Luka and Martha for several reasons at once. Firstly, according to the calendar, the children's birthdays turned out to be closer to the name day of Luke and Martha. And secondly, that was the name of the grandfather and grandmother of the TV presenter. “These wonderful people lived a long beautiful life,” said the star. “By the way, after the appearance of Luka, my friends named the children the same way - I know five boys with that name!”

The actress called her twin sons the old Russian names Foma and Foka Maria Shukshina. The babies received rare names thanks to the artist's sister, Olga, who, even during Maria's pregnancy, went to an old man in the Voronezh region and told him that she would soon become an aunt. The elder did not even ask who Shukshina would have, a boy or a girl, he immediately said: “Call Foma and Fok.”
“So we did,” recalls Maria Shukshina. - I'll tell you more: Foka's full name is Photius. I haven't even heard of this. Moreover, one of my ancestors on my father's side bore this name. It turns out that there were such Orthodox saints. It seems that one of these names is translated as "light", and the other - as "twin".
Names according to Russian tradition gave their daughters and acting couple Maria Poroshina and her husband Ilya Drevnov. The girls who were born in 2005, 2010 and 2016 received the rarest names of Seraphim, Agrafen and Glafira. “Ilya and I really like the old Russian names, they are so sonorous, beautiful,” Poroshina explained the choice of names.

The old Latin names - Severina and Octavia - are the daughters of the outrageous director Valeria Gai Germanika. The female name Octavia, which in ancient Rome meant "eighth", was given to women from the Octavia family, and the Latin name Severina is the female form of the male name Severin, which was associated with a strict and cold character.
scandalous singer Sergey Shnurov also chose old names for his children - "fiery" Seraphim and"shiny" Apollo.
Actors chose a name for their second child for a long time Vladimir Epifantsev and Anastasia Vedenskaya. As a result, the stars settled on the rare name Orpheus. The godfather of the boy, who was born in 2008, was a close friend of the family, Father John, in the world - an actor, director and screenwriter Ivan Okhlobystin, and the godmother - Anna Mikhalkova. The couple also have an older son, Gordey.
