Hey celebs! We're begging you: enough with the idiotic names! Enough is enough.

Baby name idiocy has a surprisingly long history. Way back in 1969, hospital nurses refused to write Dweezil on Frank Zappa's son's birth certificate. So Frank named his son Ian Donald Calvin Euclid. When Dweezil discovered that "Dweezil" was just a nickname, he had his name legally changed.

Which is as it should be. If a man wants to be called Dweezil, that is his right. But we don't think Dweezil should be forced upon anyone.

Which brings us to Jamie Oliver, who has named his infant son Buddy Bear Maurice.

This follows on the heels of his three daughters: Petal Blossom Rainbow, Daisy Boo Pamela and Poppy Honey Rosie.

The man is an excellent cook, but when it comes to his children's names, his taste is all in his mouth.

We're begging you. MAKE IT STOP!!!
