15 Up-and-Coming Trends About 69VN

Celebrities are not like everyday people. They have busy schedules, drive expensive cars, and wear jewelry that others can only dream of owning. Maybe it is because celebrities are so far removed from normal life that they often give their babies unusual names.

Some names are just a little different. John Travolta and Kelly Preston have two beautiful children. Their daughter’s name is Ella Bleu. Their son’s name is Jett. Jett is different, but anyone who knows anything about John Travolta knows he has a love for flying. Gwyneth Paltrow, pregnant again, came under scrutiny for naming her first child Apple. While Vpay88 it is unusual, it is somewhat cute, like in the “apple of their eye.” Chris Martin, her husband, tired of the controversy over the name Apple, has jokingly stated their second child, whether male or female, will be named Banana. Another cute name is Dandelion, the name of Keith Richards’ daughter. Julie Roberts recently gave birth to twins – a boy and a girl – and received flack over the names she chose. She received Royvin almost as much grief over the choice for her daughter’s name, Hazel, as she did the more eccentric choice of Phinnaeus for her son.

Many people speculated what Madonna would name her HUNO first child. Lourdes Maria seems a fitting name for child who’s mother’s name is Madonna, but she often goes by Lola. Her son is named Rocco, which sounds a bit like a cartoon character, but at least it is a tough sounding name. Actor Casey Affleck and fianc Summer Phoenix recently had a son named Indiana August, which leads one to wonder what state and month their son was conceived in. Toni Braxton has two sons, Denim and Diezel. While both useful products, they make somewhat strange names for children. Rob Marrow decided it would be cute if he named his daughter Tu Simone Ayer, calling her Tu Morrow. Wonder if she will think it is cute 20 years from now? Actor Jason Lee named his son Pilot Inspektor, but magician Penn Jillette may have topped them all. He named his daughter, Moxie Crimefighter, saying “because when xoso66 she’s pulled over for speeding she can say, `But officer, we’re on the same side, my middle name is CrimeFighter.”‘

If you think it is a new trend, think again. Back in 1971, David Bowie and his then wife Angela decided to name their son Duncan Zowie Heywood Jones. He soon became known as Zowie Bowie. Cher named her children Chastity Sun and Elijah Blue.

The Phoenix family is well known for their unusual choice of baby names. Summer Phoenix’s siblings are the late actor River Phoenix, actresses Rain and Liberty Phoenix and actor Joaquin Phoenix. Joaquin felt his name was so out of place with his siblings, that when he was four, he decided to change his name to Leaf. By the early 1990’s, he had reverted back to using his birth name. Another family infamous for their choices of baby names is the Zappa family. Frank’s children are Dweezil, Moon Unit, Ahmed Emuukha Rodan and Diva Muffin. While many people think that Dweezil is his given name, his birth name was originally Ian Donald Calvin Euclid Zappa because the hospital refused to register the name Dweezil. Always called Dweezil, when he was a child, he wanted to make the name official and his parents took him to have it changed legally. Paula Yates, former wife of Sir Bob Geldof and girlfriend of late rocker Michael Hutchence, also had a knack for giving her children unusual names. Among her brood are Fifi Trixibelle, Peaches Honeyblossom Michelle Charlotte Angel Vanessa, Heavenly Hiraani Tigerlily, and Little Pixie.

Some celebrity baby names make sense if you know the story behind them. Eurythmic’s Dave Stewart named his son Django after jazz guitarist Django Reinhardt. Stevie Wonder named his son Mandla Kadjaly Carl Stevland, however Mandla means “powerful” in Zulu and Kadjaly means “born from God” in Swahili. Helen Hunt just gave birth to a baby girl she named Makena’lei Gordon. The name Makena’lei is from a friend’s dream and means “many flowers of heaven.” Gordon, an unlikely girl’s name, was to honor of Helen’s father, television director Gordon Hunt. Nicolas Cage just named his new baby boy Kal-el. Because Nicolas took his stage name of Cage from comic book character Luke Cage, he decided to name his son Kal-el after one of his favorite comic book heroes. Kal-el is Superman’s kryptonian name.

So, do the children like these unconventional names given them by their parents? In some cases, they do. The Phoenix’s seem to love their nature-inspired names and the Zappa children seem to have had no ill effects from their eccentric names. However, some children tire of the peculiar names quickly. Zowie Bowie had had enough of his moniker by the time he was 12 and asked to be referred to as “Joey.” Although Dandelion Richards does not seem too bad, she has since started referring to herself as Angela. Recently, Peaches Honeyblossom Michelle Charlotte Angel Vanessa Geldof has been the most outspoken about the odd choice her parents made in naming her. She has been quoted as saying, “I hate ridiculous names. My weird name has haunted me all my life.”

While having an unusual name might be difficult for any child, the celebrity of a child’s parents may enhance it even further. Thankfully, celebrity children who decide they don’t like their given names can switch to a nickname or even eventually have their names legally changed.

HELP I just found out that Flea named one of his kids Sunny Bebop and I can't stop giggling and it's not funny because that poor child but at the same time it is funny because I worked it out and that man was 43 and thought that was a great name for his daughter 😂😭😭

Shockingly I’ve heard worse celebrity kids’ names. Allow me to mention some.

Pilot Inspektor Riesgraf Lee

Audio Science Clayton

Moon Unit, Dweezil, and Diva Muffin (the Zappa kids)

Peaches Honeyblossom Michelle Charlotte Angel Vanessa Geldolf (yes, this is one person)

Moxie Crimefighter

Fifi Trixibelle

Tu Morrow

X Æ A-12 Musk (whatever the fuck Elon Musk named his kid)

Exa Dark Sideræl Musk (again, whatever the fuck Elon Musk named his other child)

All of Kim Kardashian’s kids’ names

There’s so many more I could list😭😭😭

[gcorvetti]

Arte, AI e Zappa.

Sta notte non ho potuto dormire, come capita spesso ultimamente, ma non per i pensieri che si affollano ma perché oramai lei russa sempre e non posso dormire. Ero Contento perché avevo guardato un docufilm su Zappa di quando fece il tour nel 82 in Italia con finale a Palermo, un tizio amico di Frank lo portò dove nacque il padre a Partinico e poi ci portò Dweezil, Moon, Diva e Gail, infatti mi fece strano e oggi ho controllato che il suddetto docu è del 2013, perché Gail è morta nel 2015. Tutto molto bello, quando si parla dello zio Frank, tranne il concerto, un disastro, le forze dell'ordine che sparano i lacrimogeni senza motivo, il pubblico messo sugli spalti a 20-30 metri dal palco, un palco montato a minchia nel mezzo del campo ecc ecc, una tragedia che concluse il tour europeo di Frank e compagnia bella, Steve Vai giovanissimo che poi in una breve intervista odierna disse che fu la sua prima volta in Italia e da italo-americano ne fu entusiasta. Il casino per loro era di trovarsi nel posto giusto al momento sbagliato, c'erano i mondiali che vincemmo noi, il 14 Luglio a Palermo c'è la festa di santa Rosalia e guai se tocchi i santi ed infine in quel periodo c'era una faida tra le cosche e quindi l'aria era tesissima. Nel filmato si vede che dopo il concerto, finito dopo poco più di un'ora, i musicisti furono relegati negli spogliatoi della Favorita e Frank era visibilmente nervoso, tanto che la guardia del corpo gli fece mettere il giubbotto anti proiettili per rassicurarlo. Incredibile documento. C'è anche il fatto che il sindaco di Partinico ha dato la cittadinanza onoraria agli Zappa americani e la scuola ha dedicato l'aula di musica a Frank, anche la via dove era nato il padre è ora intitolata a Frank, la prossima volta che vado in Trinacria ci faccio un salto.

Ma cosa ci azzecca l'intelligenza artificiale in tutto questo? Ieri avevo risposto ad un post su FB dicendo che potrebbe essere una manna dal cielo perché gli artisti possono scrivere "fatto da un umano e non da una macchina" e dare più valore al loro operato, nessuna obiezione da parte di nessuno anzi uno scambio simpatico di opinioni. Oggi trovo un post della stessa persona che condivide l'opinione di un artista che si lamenta del fatto che anche i grafici che usano photoshop copiano o ricalcano o modificano un pò foto esistenti o comunque cose già fatte da altri e le impastano con le proprie e che è da ipocriti prendersela con le AI.

Penso che non è questo il punto, le AI sono frutto di quella porzione di persone che lavorano per migliorare la nostra vita, questo è quello che ti dicono, un pò come quelli della robotica che dicono che i robot aiuteranno l'uomo nei lavori faticosi e ripetitivi, forse, intanto milioni di persone negli anni hanno perso il lavoro rimpiazzati da una macchina che lo fa più velocemente e senza sbagliare, non ha bisogno di pause e non si lamenta, questo è il progresso che ci stanno regalando illudendoci che la tecnologia ci possa aiutare come ha fatto fin ora.

Penso che questa sia una di quelle situazioni invasive dove la tecnologia non ci aiuta ma ci penalizza. Riguardo il mondo dell'arte a me sembra che si è perso il senso stesso della parola, un computer può in qualche secondo creare un quadro, digitale, con lo stile di un pittore e far si che quel quadro sembra fatto da quell'artista, impressionante vero? Ma è una mera illusione, il vero artista spende anche anni della sua vita per creare un opera che è unica nel suo genere e inimitabile, anche se delle copie dei capolavori si perde il conto. Una macchina non ha la sensibilità che ha una persona, non ha il tocco della mano di quella persona, ma se già si pensa che un artista è unico perché è lui e nessun altro possono riprodurre le sue opere figuriamoci un computer. Poi c'è da dire che questo mondo digitale parallelo ha un problema di fondo, oppure se vogliamo dirlo in modo diverso dipende dall'elettricità, i server, i pc, il costo che sale può determinare anche una flessione verso il basso, oppure se vogliamo essere catastrofisti, se brucia una farm (quelle dove ci stanno i server) il lavoro di anni di un programmatore potrebbe essere perso, di solito hanno dei backup quindi niente paura, oppure se capitasse un cataclisma e tutto tornerebbe come all'inizio del 1800 chi lavora nell'IT e i maniaci tecnologici cadrebbero in depressione, per non dire dagli sgabelli con una corda al collo. Certo questi sono scenari apocalittici e poco, pochissimo, reali, ma sono comunque da tenere in considerazione se pensiamo che c'è una (veramente sono 52) guerra che potrebbe inghiottire tutto il mondo e quindi azzerare le cose.

Penso che siamo stati fregati, che la tecnologia (internet compresa) siano solo uno specchietto per le allodole e che la società abbia preso troppo a cuore questa cosa che oramai non ne può più fare a meno. Personalmente ho un rapporto di odio e amore per le tecnologie, amore perché in qualche modo mi hanno dato anche da lavorare e mi ha fatto anche se per poco spalmare la mia arte, odio perché so benissimo che sono soggette ad obsolescenza, tipo i telefoni, e che quindi hanno un range di vita molto breve, metti che ti compri un pc spendendo 2k€ con tutti i componenti di ultima generazione, dopo un anno il tuo favoloso pc varrà 500€ perché nel frattempo ne è uscito uno più potente, questa è una spirale a morire, nel senso che moriremo noi convinti di avere sempre le tecnologie di ultimo grido. Certo mia nonna sarà stata contenta quando è stato portato il frigo in casa, o le montarono il citofono così non doveva affacciarsi dal balcone e andare giù per aprire il portone, ma in questi casi si parla di un vero aiuto e non un modo di fare soldi sulle spalle ignare della gente.

Concludendo dico che ho comprato una chitarra nel 1999 (dal codice sono risalito all'anno di fabbricazione 1995), questa chitarra è ancora con me ed è la mia Excalibur è perfettamente funzionante e ci suono benissimo, stessa cosa per la pedaliera che presi nel 2005 e che è ancora una macchina perfetta, certo adesso ci sono chitarre con materiali migliori, parlando di legno e bobine dei pickup, ci sono pedaliere fenomenali che riescono a copiare il suono di un amplificatore soltanto collegandole a tale ampli, il costo è sicuramente lievitato, i suoni saranno anche migliori, ma a me sta bene così, perché per fare i miei brani non ho bisogno di tecnologia ma di fantasia che non è tecnologica.
