Baffling Celebrity Quote Of The Week

"People make a big fuss over names. Names of babies, names of albums, names of bands. There’s nothing weird about calling your baby Chewbacca if that’s what you want to call your baby. It’s no stranger than Sarah. A name is just a noise, and if you like it, then f--k what everyone else says." (Chris Martin, who named his kids Apple and Moses, which aren't such bad names, really, especially if you compare them to names like, Yoda, R2-D2 or CHEWBACCA.)

Um, dude?

There is something TOTALLY weird about calling your baby Chewbacca. Like, seriously. Unless you're a Wookie, calling your baby Chewbacca is a) incontrovertible evidence that your geekness has completely overtaken your common sense and that - if you are actually committed to raising children who won't need tens of thousands of dollars worth of therapy - you should probably think really hard about packing away your Hans Solo outfit and skipping ComiCon for a few years and, b) a pretty solid guarantee that your child is going to get pantsed, bad, on the playground, for reals.

A name may be just a noise, but look, so is a fart, and just 'cause you like it doesn't make it a good thing.
