They grace our televisions and our magazines daily, so when celebrities become parents the names they choose for their children are also in the spotlight. Let’s take a look at the names that graced 2012…
When it comes to the names that are chosen by celebrities for their children, there’s little surprise that the names of these new mini celebrities will enter the spotlight almost the second they arrive into the world.
2012 was a year that saw plenty of new mini celebs welcomed into the world, from local Aussie musician Guy Sebastian to global superstars like Uma Thurman. Just like the variety that exists in the personalities of celebs worldwide, the same variety and unique attitudes make their way into the baby names they choose, too.
