Future Starbaby Names: Predictions for the New Hammer and Grammer Babes
Future Starbaby Names: Predictions for the New Hammer and Grammer Babes
Dec 26, 2024 1:48 PM

  By Sophie Kihm

  Some big celebrity broods are about to get bigger–Kelsey Grammer is going to be a dad to seven kids, and Mel Gibson‘s girlfriend is expecting his ninth! Predicting names for such huge families is a daunting task. People’s naming styles tend to change over time, especially when they’ve been naming children for over a generation. That being said, sometimes name preference doesn’t change! There are some large celebrity sibsets that go together really well–the Gibson family is a great example.

  Besides the Gibsons and Grammers, there are plenty more exciting celebrity baby name predictions this month. Natalie Portman, Marion Cotillard, and Pharrell Williams are all going to be parents of two. I’ve made my predictions for them (and more!) below. Vanessa and Nick Lachey

  Gender: unknown

  Siblings: Camden John, Brooklyn Elisabeth

  Baby number three is on the way for the Lacheys! Both Camden and Brooklyn are well-liked names with androgynous sounds, so let’s see if their brother or sister will have a name that follows the pattern.Girl: Addison, Aubrey, Berkeley, Gracen, Harper, Kennedy, Noa, Quincy

  Boy: Asher, Beckett, Declan, Easton, Everett, Hayden, Levi, Sawyer, Wyatt

  *Update* Hello, Phoenix Robert!

  Rosalind Ross and Mel Gibson

  Gender: unknown

  Siblings: Hannah, Christian, Milo, Lucia, Louis, Thomas, Edward, William (all from previous relationships)

  For such a large celebrity family, Mel Gibson‘s children have surprisingly cohesive names. He definitely has a style–European royalty. I expect nothing less for his ninth baby.Girl: Amelia, Caroline, Clara, Eleanor, Elizabeth, Emma, Katherine, Lydia, Mary, Rose

  Boy: Andrew, Benjamin, Charles, Frederick, George, James, Oliver, Richard, Samuel

  *Update* European indeed—Scandinavian to be exact. Welcome Lars Gerard!

  Kayte and Kelsey Grammer

  Gender: unknown

  Siblings: Spencer, Greer, Mason Olivia, Jude Gordon (all from previous marriages), Faith Evangeline Elisa, Kelsey Gabriel Elias

  Unlike the Gibson clan, Kelsey Grammer’s sibset encompasses a wide range of styles. However, baby #7 has the same mom as Faith and Kelsey, so I think he or she will have a sensible and stylish first name with two fashionable middles.

  Girl: Annabelle, Audrey, Elizabeth, Genevieve, Grace, Lily, Mia, Scarlett

  Boy: Benjamin, Christian, Isaac, Levi, Nathaniel, Noah, Owen, Zachary

  *Update* Welcome, Auden James Ellis!

  Elizabeth Chambers and Armie Hammer

  Gender: unknown

  Siblings: Harper (g)

  There are so many celebrity sibsets containing Harper: Harper and Gideon; Harper, Brooklyn, Romeo, and Cruz; Harper, Hayley, and Hannah; Harper and Weston–I could go on! There are many different directions in which the Hammers could go for their Harper‘s younger sibling, but I have a feeling it will be another tailored, on-trend choice.

  Girl: Avery, Charlotte, Ellery, Emerson, Hazel, Lucy, Marlowe, Ruby, Vivian

  Boy: Beckett, Ellis, Finn, Graham, Grayson, Jack, Liam, Rowan, Sawyer

  *Update* It’s a boy—Ford Douglas Armand!

  Natalie Portman and Benjamin Millepied

  Gender: unknown

  Siblings: Aleph

  After choosing the wonderfully rare Hebrew name Aleph for her son, I cannot wait to hear what Natalie Portman picks for baby #2. There are so many fantastic, under-the-radar Hebrew names out there, it was hard to keep my predictions short!

  Girl: Adalia, Adira, Bethel, Chava, Feya, Haviva, Leeza, Leora, Mehira, Niva, Raya, Zadie

  Boy: Bram, Dovev, Eben, Eitan, Eliaz, Gavi, Israel, Lev, Lior, Nahir, Noam, Samson, Tal, Yael

  *Update* Hello, Amalia!

  Allison Pill and Joshua Leonard

  Gender: unknown

  Siblings: none

  Allison Pill and her husband Joshua live low-key lives outside of the spotlight. That leads me to believe that when it comes to baby names, they aren’t going to choose something eccentric or outlandish. However, I do think their son or daughter will have a name with style–maybe one of the following:

  Girl: Cecilia, Cora, Eleanor, Eva, Genevieve, Isabel, Lucy, Madeleine, Margaret, Phoebe

  Boy: Andrew, August, Charlie, Elliott, Gabriel, Gavin, Henry, Julian, Max, Miles, Theo

  *Update* It’s a girl—Wilder Grace!

  Marion Cotillard and Guillaume Canet

  Gender: unknown

  Siblings: Marcel

  Ooh-la-la, let’s talk French names! French couple Marion Cotillard and Guillaume Canet chose handsome Marcel for their son five years ago. Now that they’re expecting a second child, I’m sure the fashionable duo will choose another stylish French appellation.

  Girl: Anais, Colette, Elodie, Eulalie, Isabeau, Lilou, Maelys, Ophelie, Ottilie, Silvie, Simone

  Boy: Claude, Clemence, Gable, Harvey, Henri, Lionel, Lucien, Maurice, Pascal, Remy

  *Update* A girl—Louise!

  Helen Lasichanh and Pharrell Williams

  Gender: unknown

  Siblings: Rocket Ayer

  What do you name a sibling for Rocket? That’s what Pharrell Williams and Helen Lasichanh have to figure out. I like the idea of another whimsical word name–especially one with a subtle theme (Zephyr or Zeppelin!).

  Girl: Boheme, Domino, Eden, Jette, Moon, Poet, Rhapsody, Solstice, Story, Temple

  Boy: Arrow, Axel, Indigo, Noble, Onyx, Rollo, True, Wilder, Zephyr, Zeppelin, Ziggy
