While the Mamas normally would not normally pay attention to Playboy bunny Kendra Wilkinson and her husband football player Hank Baskett, they did read this weekend that the expectant parents have already chosen a name for their unborn son.
The Mamas aren't going to lie to you.
They were pleasantly surprised to hear that the baby's name will be...
... Hank Baskett IV.
And this was w-a-y better than it could have been.

Congratulations to Charlie Sheen and his wife Brooke on the safe arrival of their sons Bob and Max.

Bob and Max.
Max and Bob.
In an era when celebrity parents name their offspring things like Zuma Nesta Something-or-the-other, Bronx Mowlgi, or simply too many names all at once, Bob and Max are such nice and normal names.
Let's hope the boys grow up to be, you know, actually normal.
Don't forget that the Mamas also snark at our Ning site -- go check it out!
Expectant mother Angie Harmon and her husband Jason Sehorn are expecting their third child this winter.

In a recent interview, Angie said that they have picked out a unique name. She said, "I look through the baby-name books to make sure the name I'm picking is not in there. I just don't want everyone to have it!"
Uh oh.
Angie, you have us worried. You already have daughters named Avery and Finley. How much more unique can you get without skewing into the bizarre?
We'd like to remind you that babies are humans and they have to live with their names forever -- or at least until they're old enough to legally change their names.
Think the Mamas are overreacting?
David Bowie named his son Zowie -- that kid later changed his name to Joe.
Tallulah Belle Willis changed her name to Lula Willis.
In New Zealand, a judge ordered a name change for a nine-year-old girl named Talula Does The Hula From Hawaii. The girl was so embarrassed that she had never told her classmates her real name and they simply knew her as K.
Also in New Zealand, a judge blocked a couple from naming their son 4real.
We wish that a judge had been called in when the parents of Urhines Kendall Icy Eight Special K filed her birth certificate.
We're not suggesting that Angie and Jason should name their child Emily (#1 in 2007), Jacob (#1 in 2000), or Jennifer (#1970-1984). We understand that no child (both male and female) wants to be one of six Tylers in his/her kindergarten class.
Just use some common sense -- unlike Pete Wentz and Ashlee Simpson. You just know that little Bronx Mowgli Wentz will one day legally change his name to Bob or Mike or John.
What do you think about, ahem, creative names? Leave a comment at Jen's blog.
Star magazine believes it has solved the mystery of why Ashlee Simpson and Peter Wentz gave their son such a crappy name. It seems that it's not accidental that "Bronx" ends in "x" just like the Jolie-Pitt boys' names: Maddox, Pax, and Knox.
Simpson and Wentz tried to ape a baby name like their Hollywood heros in an attempt to be more like Jolie and Pitt.
Dear Ashlee,
We hate to break it to you, but no matter what you say, wear, or do, this:
will never, ever turn into this:
Yours in the face of harsh reality,
Mamarazzi
Halle Berry and Gabriel Aubry named their new daughter Nahla Ariela Aubry.
Lovely name. But it reminds us of Disney movie characters...
Nala, Simba's girlfriend/wife/mother of the next Lion King in The Lion King and...
Ariel, The Little Mermaid.
Interestingly, this comes on the heels of Jennifer Lopez & Skeletor's twins Emme & Max, which, as we've noted before, are frighteningly close to...
Dragon Tales' Emmy & Max.
Now it looks like Angelina & Brad are expecting twins too, a girl and a boy.
We shudder to think that they'll follow this disturbing trend and name their kids...
Pebbles & Bam-Bam or...
Belle & Beast or...
Lilo & Stitch.

Tallulah Belle Willis, the youngest of the Demi-Bruce offspring is petitioning Los Angeles courts for a legal name change... folks, please welcome, Lula Willis.
Now, frankly, I hope that the new and improved Lula begins a trend in which we see the likes of Pilot Inspektor (son of Jason Lee), Jermajesty (daughter of Jermaine Jackson), Reign Beau )daughter of Vingh Rhames) and Denim (son of Toni Braxton), bog down the courts with paperwork begging to be called, Bob, Jennifer, Stephanie and Dave.
Listen up you preggers celebrity types... your child is not a puppy. It will not be a cute little Angelina-blob for long and no 12 year old on the planet wants to be saddled with a moniker that works only for a top 5 spot on VH-1's Wacky Baby Names Countdown.
Do you hear me Jamie Oliver... if you want to keep your kid off the pole, "Poppy Honey" isn't a good way to start!
