Paris Bennett Gives Birth to Baby Girl

Congratulations to AmIdol also-ran Paris Bennett, who popped out a healthy little girl on Monday. She named the little girl Egypt, just like she said she would when she announced her pregnancy this summer. I’d hoped she would change her mind and go with something a little less ridiculous, like “Kuwait” or “Equatorial Guinea” or, ya know, “Chlamydia,” but it was all for naught. The ink is dry on the birth certificate. I tried to advocate for you, little ChlamydiaEgypt. I’m sorry I let you down.

  • Haven’t you been rather remiss, Beet, in not ridiculing India Hicks’ name? Pakistan would have been an infinitely better choice, don’t you think?

  • I never understood the whole name your kid after a location thing, Egypt, Paris, Lourdes…

  • @ censorthis: That’s just cruel sarcasm

    The ‘giving your kid a ridiculous name’ gene only expresses itself with extremely black people or extremely white people.

  • OMG wendie I forgot about that one!
    I had a old friend of mine who named her little girl Precious Darling…I really don’t speak to her anymore. That kid is going to be teased sooooo bad.

  • @ wendie

    “Propecia”…isn’t that some kind of medical condition? Some kids parents, I swear they don’t think before they name the baby.

  • I know a “Forjey,” insisting her name was French, but spelt “Forget”! I am serious, guys! That was beyond stupid–her mother I mean! I won’t go into details of how much she was teased!!!

  • My english teacher had a friend who almost named her daughter Chlamydia because she thought it was pretty, and the name of a flower!!!

  • Everyone shut up, my real name is Delray. Delbert and Raymond were my grandfathers. I’m a girl. I actually love my name though, no one else has it.

  • @ woohoo
    That’s pretty though, it’s a part of your family and is absoloutly unique to you!

  • Delray, I think it’s cute too. We are talking abouth ignorant, moronic mothes! Yours, obviously had imagination and chose a nice name!

  • Oh, and I am not joking: while leaving in London as a preteen , my best friend had a friend of Pakistani origin. Her name of Fukharada or something, but try to pronounce it!!!! LOL!

  • oh why did she cut her hair like that? she has aged herself 10 years. sigh. i just wish i could help them all.

  • Egypt ? That’s ridicules! She should have named the baby Alexandra after Alexandra, South Africa and everyone could call her Sasha….

  • I don’t get celebrities and the names they pick for thier kids. Look at Gwen Stefani she just named her newest one Zuma, OMG that is a game I play when I am board. Do they not realize those kids are going to spend their lives getting into fightsnad picked on.

    By the was EB how is the non-smoking going? I am joining you I am now going on 12 hours and I have not killed anyone yet wooo hooo!!!!

  • these kids are all probably going to attend rich-arse schools where every kid has an equally ridiculous name…so i hate when people use the old they’re-gonna-be-teased-for-the-rest-of-their-lives argument.

  • Woohoo, I. too, think your real name is cool, partly because of the family connection.

    But Placenta? That is just so, so wrong. It sounds sort of pretty, yes, but it’s like naming your kid Large Intestine. I hope the nurses at least tried to talk her out of it. Or maybe she changed her mind after the epidural wore off. (Hmm, Epidural…)

  • “Placenta” is just tragic. I really hope that child goes by her middle name. Same goes for “Chlamydia”. So unfortunate.

  • oh and beet? i know someone named mecca, and nubia…and beyonce….imagine if you wll, being a daycare teacher and saying”Beyonce! stop biting your friends please” lmao!

  • lmao Placenta?!? Okay so if my next little girl’s name is Zoloft, I’ll have to name my next son after a body part…but a manly sounding body part…suggestions anyone?

  • I vote for Clavicle! Perfect for a little boy! Or Follicle or even Septum! Go Purple Monkey!!!!!!

  • Noxema…..remeber in tahnks for everything julie newmar.
    paris bennet looks like she is about 40 here and she has no career so what the hell do i care what she named her baby. eygpt sounds liek that would be a boys name also…….

  • o0o00o Septum I like that. Hold on I have to holler it like I’m mad because he just shaved the cat….
    Hehehe I like how that sounds.

  • That is the worst name that a person can name his/her child. I don’t care if she is a celebrity, she have had to have a better name than that to name her daughter”who I hope look better than she does”. She probably had a baby just because she wanted to name her baby after some COUNTRY. Just becaus her name is paris, that does’nt give her the nerve to name her daughter EGYPT. “AND WHO AND THE HELL IS THIS BABY FOR? I wouldn’t want to be seen either, having a baby with a monster!
