Congrats to Gwyneth Paltrow and Coldplay’s Chris Martin who welcomed their second child, a son named Moses, into the world this weekend. He joins sister Apple Blythe Alison Martin, who turns 2 in May. Sorry to disappoint, but PopWatch refuses to snark on the name of a newborn. There’ll be enough of that once Moses gets to middle school.

Apple has a brother (no, his name's not Mango)

Just in time for Passover!! Go Gyweneth!
Michael Slezak – Just read your Mandisa thing, and I think you are a hypocrite. You were shoving Mandisa down our throats (some of us don’t LIKE the gospel genre and think that it has no place in a competition like IDOL) but you wouldn’t listen to any other opinion. Now that you found out her prejudices, you are singing a totally different tune. Gay or no gay issue, I am glad she is gone! Go Elliott, Katherine and Kelly!
Al, wrong thread. Go bash Michael in the proper post.
I am all about the name Moses. It could be worse. He could have my last name.
Mandisa’s not so bad. Chill out.
pleasantly surprised that the baby wasn’t named Turnip. I actually like the name Moses Martin. Congrats to them.
Figures, another pretensious name, from the chick who slept her way into the movies. yawn…
I like Apple better.
Well if people name their kids Jesus, then Moses doesn’t seem much worse than that.
Well, at least they didn’t name him Satan.
I like the name Moses … not necessarily with the last name Martin but that’s ok. Also, I’ve read what Gwyn told Opera or someone about why they chose the name Apple and stuff and I think it’s kinda sweet.
Why don’t they just take the tombstone that will mark his grave in about 70 years or so – God willing – and break it in two and beat him over the head with it NOW. It’ll tenderize him for those oh-so-lovable teen years. You know, because schoolmates are SOOOO nice and respectful (sorry, I don’t have the ability to line-outs on the board forum) to each other growing up.
Well, I have two hopes…that Apple ends up using one of her normal middle names instead and that Moses grows up and parts the Red Sea…again. Allegedly.
It’s better than the name they reportedly were thinking about: Capone!
I feel sorry for Apple and Moses. They’re going to have sucky futures with those names.
Apple is not that uncommon a name in other parts of the world…
Well, at least the kids will be parted when Moses walks through the hallways at school…
