Ashlee Simpson and Pete Wentz have named their new son Bronx Mowgli Wentz. Doesn’t the phrase "Bronx Mowgli" sound like some rare affliction whose original carrier is probably that greasy bear Aaron Rose on Gossip Girl? The original Mowgli from The Jungle Book clearly does not approve. Though I do see the resemblance. We can’t wait for mom and dad’s next child, Staten Island Aladdin.

I literally LOL’ed at this post, because I was thinking the EXACT same thing.
bahahahaha. Bronx Mowgli. Staten Island Aladdin.
BRILLIANT.
Damn, now I have to name my kid “Queens Shear Khan”.
If they have a girl they can call her Queens Mulan.

Queens Mulan is actually sort of a hot drag name…
Hmmm… the initials are BMW….
I wonder if thats on purpose. Stars are stupid when it comes to their childrens names.
How about Manhatten Sebastian?
Poor kid. It sounds like a disease.
I don’t know why I’m surprised that another Hollywood couple decided to give their baby a name that will guarantee beatings on the playground.
I think its a cool name,why dont people shut up?
I think the name Bronx is sort of cute. It’s original, as a kid’s name, and isn’t insane(Pilot Inspektor…). And I wish people would leave Gossip Girl’s Aaron alone! He’s not so bad! And I LIKE his hair.
That’s the dumbest name I’ve ever heard – arguably worse than names like “Apple,” “Pilot Inspektor,” or “Boat Shoes” for the fact that little Beamer’s parents think it’s some fun homage to a) the Disney movies of their youth and b) the, like, totally influential music scene or whatever in New York’s third most celebrated borough. Poor kid. I guarantee celebrity baby names will get worse, though, as “Goonies” nostalgia becomes more trendy.
this kid is gonna be a real loser. i don’t hope for it, but there are many factors which point to such a conclusion.
I don’t get it. Why the weird names? Bronx Wentz just doesn’t even sound good one single bit. Bronx is a soap opera name. Whatever.
