I'm not sure if you're trying to say that at the age of 33 it would be a lot of hard work for her to be pregnant or to take care of the kids or if you're joking about it and I'm reading too much into this????? LOL

:clap: OK. The twins are finally here! It's great that they're healthy.

Let's hope that the media can now focus on something else...

"a lot of hard work for her to be pregnant". i think.

along with the 6 children (yes i know they have a compliment of staff to help) and a thriving career.

didn't she say way back when she would only have Shilo, after she gave birth to her? :crazy:

She's THIRTY THREE Floh. She can handle it. What about women back in the "olden" days who had a dozen kids without medical care, staff, etc.

i'm thrilled for the birth of Vivienne & Knox ....i actually really like the names too

congrats !

 

[Socks]

Thank you for the explanation. i wonder if it was Angelina's or Brad's choice.

Knox Is Brad's father's middle name. Marcheline is after Angelina's mother.

So we have Apple, Suri, Shiloh, Phineaus, Sunday, Moses and now Knox.

My all time favorite is Moxie CrimeFighter. Brought to us by Jillette Penn of Penn and Teller fame.

Bob Geldof has 3 daughters: FiFi Trixiebelle, Peaches Honeyblossum and Pixie. :crazy:

Holy cow - that's unreal! :crazy:

Are you sure these are the names of his actual (human) daughters? Geez - they all sound more like fou fou type names for family pets .. dogs or kitties.

**3:24 PM - ETA: You were correct. I looked up Bob Geldof. He is also the custodial guardian of his ex-wife's 12 yr. old daughter, "Tiger-Lily" who is also the half-sister of his 3 daughters.


Some of these "off the wall" names that celebrities are giving their offspring really make me question their state of mind. :::Hitting my forehead with the heel of my palm - V-8 style:::

Don't these over-compensated ego-driven people ever stop to think how difficult some of these outlandish names will be to live with for their child?

Good grief - it's hard enough for a celebrity's kid to have a semblance of a normal life without adding the extra pressure & burden of a bizarre name they'll have to carry with them for the rest of their lives. So difficult for the child - I just don't get it!

And talk about teasing & *bullying* in school - some of these names are just begging for ridicule by the bullies. So sad .. as it could be avoided by down-to-earth "thinking" parents who cared.

Knox Is Brad's father's middle name. Marcheline is after Angelina's mother.

Thank you. i knew about Marcheline, but not Knox. so there we have it.

 

[Rum Tum Tugger]

Personally I love the name Pixie :crazy:

Me too .. for a pet or a forum hat. Great handle!

I have a tiny kitty I'm foster-homing that we named "Pixie". She's precious & adorable.

Knox Is Brad's father's middle name. Marcheline is after Angelina's mother.

Thanks for the explanation; now I understand. I think Marcheline is a gorgeous name. That's nice to honor the father and deceased mother.

When my daughter had her recent son, we had alot of fun going through all the possible names. It seems that boys are a little more limited than girls, as far as pleasant or masculine sounding names JMO.

("knox" flavored gelatin, tee tee).. Sorry I just can't help myself

Ohhhh probably a family decision! :tongue: I don't get the round top hill -
Maybe Angie will write a book one day and tell us how they came up with all their names!

Thanks Socks! I get it now!

If you're living in a huge French Castle, you can tell the kids to "go to the dungeon" when they're acting up.

It's the superrich form of "time out".

We know Knox is Brad's father's middle name and Marcheline wa her mother's name.

all we're awaiting is Leon and Vivienne now!

Will Angelina have any more "bio" kids? I don't think so - why? Brad got his bio boy. I think they planned this very carefully - a girl for Angie (to be named after her mom), and a boy for Brad. I think they will adopt more kids, but I think Angie is done with having babies herself. That's why they "engineered" the twins, one pregnancy and Angie is all done with the baby making thing. Now she can get back to traveling around the world, doing her charity thing and finding more children to adopt - oh, and making a movie here and there.

Thankfully now that "Saint Angelina" has produced the miracle twins (it's the new trend in celebrity births - a boy and a girl - one pregnancy, all done) perhaps the universe can go back to it's regularly scheduled orbit. People magazine will have photos soon (Angie always sells the pics to People because they always agree to include something about her Charity/Issue du Jour) and they can retreat for a few months to the Chateau in France - until Angie gets restless and they all troop en-masse to the next location lucky enough to benefit from the Pitt-Jolie phemenon (it can support a small country BTW).

I wish the babies health and Angie a good recovery. I am just really bored with the whole thing - it's just having babies, something other women in really difficult circumstances do with grace and courage every day without a single headline.

My Opinion

Knox Is Brad's father's middle name. Marcheline is after Angelina's mother.

Actually, this says Knox is the middle name of Brad's grandfather.

I like their names and I can't wait to see pictures of them!
I bet Brad and Angie are on cloud 9!


Congrats to the happy couple!
