Why Sunday?
Filed under: Baby Blabber > Australiastic > Nicole Kidman > Keith Urban
Finally!
The reason(s) why Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban named their bundle of joy Sunday Rose Roast….
Grandpa Kidman told the Australian media that Sunday was the name of Australian artist Sidney Nolan's muse.
Gramps revealed he and Grandma Kidman had suggested it to Keith and Nic. He says, "I have read a bit about Sunday Reed and her husband John - she was a key mover and shaker in the arts around the beginning of the century. The name Sunday struck me as being a nice name for a woman, so my wife and I mentioned it."
The source goes on to report that Sunday Reed was famous for her patronage of the arts, but also for her relationship with Sidney Nolan. Reed and her husband took part in a menage-a-trois type affair with the artist, which lasted nine years in the 1930s and resulted in Sunday becoming Nolan's muse.
Will little Sunday Rose Kidman Urban 'inspire' future artists in the same way?
We kid.
Urban's brother Shane revealed the baby's second name was a tribute to their late grandmother, Rose.
"It's a wonderful wonderful thing, I'm so, so proud," he said.
As for Roast, Perez says, "Sunday is my cheat day where I can eat whatever I want, and a roast sounds yummy this week. So, Sunday Roast Kidman Urban Cruise it is!"

wow
First!!!
Perez honestly thats not funny!
Cruise, Perez, thats just rude
KEITH URBAN SHOULD KICK YOUR FAT ASS FOR PUTTING CRUISE
what would madonna say to all this?
mmmmmmm!!i dont know if i love that?
sunday but born on monday lmao
He also sang a song titled "Raining on Sunday." It's a different name, but kind of pretty. Congrats Nicole & Keith!
Why would Tom Cruise have anything to do with Nicole's and Keith's newborn? Especially his last name?
I'm so dumb… I thought it was Sunday because that's the one day of the week she even thinks about her other two kids that she left all the way on the other side of the country with their crazy scientologisty dad.
"And now coming onto the stage SUNDAY". Bam chick a waa chick a waa
10th comment!
i like the name sunday it has a good meaning unlike the other random hollywood names
Perez you are really rude and pathetic! I'm sure if your precious Angelina used the name you would never mock it! You are getting mor petty and less funny by the day!
what's wrong with you? you are such a narcissist… someone's child is born and instead of just reporting it, you cruelly add the "cruise" remark and most of all, try to use this big headline as a way to talk about yourself and your diet? you've been stuffing it down our throats all week that you're dieting and exercising, and you somehow find a way to mention it in a prominent actress' daughter's birth (which is already way behind TMZ in terms of when you posted this) to remind us all your on a diet? weren't all those positive comments enough? get over yourself
Re: asdf – Are you a special needs person?
Perez, Honest to Fuckin' God YOU ARE A PATHETIC, LONELY, BITTER, MAMA'S BOY ASSHOLE.
*
I have known of two girls named Sunday, it's kind of pretty. You on the other hand, fucking Mario, fatherless cubano prick bastard, mother lover and probably dog fucker. You can't even find people to buy your cheap ass wal mart quality clothes line, let alone actually find someone who could love a bitter mother fucker like you.
*
If it wasn't for the commenters on your site you could shove it up your flabby ass.
*
I hope you choke on the next roast you eat mother fucker.
Oh now, now Perez, be nice! There's no need to be rude about Nicole and Keith's wee one. Sunday Roast Kidman Urban Cruise? Really not nice!
LMFAO PEREZZZ U R FCKIN HIGHLARIOUSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
HAHA…..
i like the name sunday though…. reminds me of adams family.
WHAT A HORRIBLE NAME—-SUNDAY???? That poor kid will be teased unmercifully. That is really cruel, Keith and Nicole. Also the fact that Nicole doesn't seem to care for her 2 other children— she lives in Tennessee, instead of in Calif. where the 2 go to school. No wonder they feel closer to Katie Holmes…. No wonder….
Sunday is as far away and rubbing in the face of Scientology
as you can get!
because it's as close to a monday morning as you can get. And everyone loves Monday mornings….
Holla Osky peeps!!!!
Celebrities seem to forego the old grey matter when it comes to naming their offspring. Do they feel under pressure to name their child something stupid because they are different then the rest of us? Do they consider the psychological consequences of their actions when their kid gets teased for life. I think Sunday, Suri, Shiloh, Tigerlilly, Moonunit, Apple et al should all form a club called, "Those of us who have been dealt the short straw when our daft parents named us."
Hey Perez“““““
Red meat IS NOT good for you sweetie.. Have roast turkey instead to keep those pounds coming off..
!
!
HOLLA bitches!
Re: Jayne –
Are you a Scientologist?
it's the kidman i don't like ..
Sunday Rose Urban, that's cute..why
the kidman??..
Strange name but an even stranger reason for using it. Naming your child after an artist's muse at the suggestion of the grandparents… Don't they have minds of their own? John and Sunday Reed were patrons of the arts, living in their house, Heide, outside Melbourne. After his first marriage failed, Sidney Nolan married Cynthia Reed, Sunday's sister. He then went on to have an open affair with Sunday. When she refused to leave her husband, he then married Mary Boyd. While Nolan is considered one of Australia's greatest artists, most notably for his "Ned Kelly" series, a lot of his work is very "dark". Somehow I don't think I would be naming my daughter after a such a woman. I am sure that moving in the artistic circles they did, they regarded their lifestyle as bohemian, but most would not have approved, particularly at the time. Each to their own…
Why are you being such a fucking asshole Mario?
No child deserves to be trashtalked the way you just did. Shameless asshole. See if I ever read your fucking site again.
Re: Wacki – Actually Monday morning is as close to a Monday morning as you can get. Check your facts and then check yourself. Holly Rolle peeps!
OK.. if you take the "K" off of Kidman, then the first letter of each of the baby's name's spell 'SURI!"
I am genius!!!
Re: lynn –
Do you think she had a choice?
Scientology claimed those kids and shut her out!
That is why they got divorced, that she wouldn't convert
I don't believe it honestly came out of her. Did she eat the placenta?
Re: lynn – I guess if you leave the "K" on though, it would be "SUKI" and that's pretty good, too.
I guess Sunday is just as good as these crazy celebrity kid names:
Pilot Inspektor- Jason Lee's kid.
Fifi Trixibelle= Bob Geldorf's kid.
Apple= Paltrow's spawn.
Kyd=David Duchovny and Tea Leoni's special package.
Ocean=Forest Whitaker's.
Moon Unit and Diva Thin Muffin= Frank Zappa's hallucinations.
Moxie Crimefighter= Penn Jillette's magic moment.
Jermajesty= Jermaine Jackson's royal jester.
Too many names, too little time lol.
I know everyone on this website is like 12 years old, so allow me to drop some knowledge.
Sidney Nolan was a great artist who became famous for his portraits of the infamous and iconic Australian bush-ranger (like an outlaw) Ned Kelly, who lived in the late 19th century. His story is legendary and known by ALL Aussies. It's like knowing who Billy the Kid is.
Anyway, in the most recent film adaptation of Ned Kelly's life, Kelly was played by Heath Ledger, so naming her child is partly a tribute to Nolan, and partly a tribute to her friend, Heath Ledger.
Got it? Good.
I really hate her.
Skinny pretencious bitch. Give your kid a normal name.
You too Gwennyth Paltrow.
Bitches.
I LOVE THE NAME, I WISH I NAMED MY DAUGHTER SUNDAY….IT'S AWESOME.
Re: Jayne – My sister's name is Sundai…no Y. She is 52, so she and I had odd names when noone else did…people always love her name. She got teased a little, but not as much as me. I love the name, but each to his own.
Re: Jayne – hmmm…somebody's a scientologist…
what a stupid name, celebrity kids should unite to protest for the riciculous name they are given to.
That was rude…I like the name Sunday.
stop being a dick perez
Wow…not only was that not remotely funny (not even in a mean-funny type way), but it was, in fact, mean. You were really stretching on that one and just came out looking like a douche. Oh, and you might wanna rethink that cheat day because you're still incredibly overweight, fatass.
Re: david-0-selznick –
YEAH I DON'T THINK SHE HAD THE BABY EITHER
THEY SAID SHE WAS PREGANANT THEN YOU DIDN'T HEAR ABOUT IT THEN A YEAR LATER SHE IS PREGERS AGAIN-SHE NEVER LOOKED PREGANAT EVER
It's a different name. I wouldn't name my kid after a muse, but with this kid will have enough money and be sheltered enough, it won't matter. There are plenty of hollywierd kids with worse names out there. Now, only you would think of Sunday Roast, but then you are obsessed with food.
why do so many celebs name their children with ridiculous names?
Honor, Sunday, Suri, Shiloh I mean NONE of these names are traditional names. ok well most.
I think they have some type of complex where everything needs to be special and grand and that includes their children and down to their names. Sad
the cruise party was typical perez snarky but the "roast" and "perez says" parts were just completely lame. you're losing it you fatass. oh and this is totally old news. tmz, e!, hell even tvguide have been reporting this for hours. Maybe if you weren't so busy raiding the fridge and stuffing your face you would have posted this in a timely manner…or did you only let the one person who subscribes to your gossip on the go (your mother) know in a timely fashion? perez, you are losing it. ps i saw your clothes on clearence at hot topic yesterday hahahahhaa.
Sunday Reed was a slut who committed suicide. She also had gonorrhea.
you know what i just thought of you know who will have the CRAZIEST kid name
Mariah Carey ..can't you just hear it now…
can't wait for it………
for the people who mentioned the (i agree) ridiculous names of Frank Zappa's children, with all due respect, he was an eccentric musical genius who, although ruining his kids' lives with those names, didn't do it to be "different" like the other celebs. "Why would you name your child such a ridiculous name as Moon-Unit?" someone on tv asked Frank once, "it's so ugly and repulsive!"
"I don't see what's so great about the name Ralph, I think that's an ugly name." His point obviously is that who are others to crticize what you name your children? It's the parents' choice
Really, fatty. Thats not nice. U wish u were a woman and give birth to Keith's baby. Keep working on being an LA queen. (not gonna happen)
We luv ya, MARIO!!!!
brings a whole new meaning to Urban's song "Raining on Sunday"
Nas - untitled album - july 15th
go buy it!
hero feat. Keri hilson! out now!
Re: Bozo – yes we all have Google you dimwit fucktard
Sunday Roast is yesterdays joke…already it's soooo old ***fucking yawn*** Perez stop stealing other peoples jokes.
I figured it had to be an Australian thang.
tacky bitch, how can you be saying such monsterous things about a little new born baby? You are one of the major things wrong in our society and I hope you reap what you sew sooner than later. I hope everyone will hate you for being the hatred loving asshole that you are \. PIG!
Putting cruise on the end of her name is DIGUSTING and foul
Love the name SUNDAY ROSE KIDMAN URBAN sounds very pretty to me.Congratualtions to the happy family.
Re: lynn – hey lynn ya bitch, those kids are controlled by their fucked up alien loving American father, bitch.
thanks not funny at all perez.
Gorgeous name! I know somebody from my childhood named Sunday and I love that name.
Sunday Rose, May she have a long, happy life!!!!!!!!
Congraulations!
Re: Em – Well.. there is no way if I were her that I would just let that be. I would fight to get them out of his life if it killed me. I would stop the world and dedicate my everything to getting those kids!
Re: Em – …….YOU DUMB BITCH!
CHEAT DAY?????????
PEREZ, THAT'S WHY YOUR STILL FAT! YOU CAN'T LOOK AT IT AS A DIET, YOU MUST CHANGE YOUR WAY OF EATING ALTOGETHER AND MAKE IT A WAY OF LIFE. OTHERWISE, YOU'LL LOSE WEIGHT AND REGAIN IT ALL AND BECOME A YO-YO DIETER LIKE JANET JACKSON. TAKE CONTROL!!!! DON'T LET FOOD CONTROL YOUR LIFE.
Re: Em – Do you have kids? Do they know that if their father was a scientologist you would just walk away from them and make another family?
i assumed when i 1st
heard the name, it was
for his song; "raining on
sunday" but then again, i guess
you wouldn't name your kid about
sex on sundayy, ayy
I read it was because of Keith's song that had Sunday in the title. I actually like it. They could have named her Apple or something crazy.
Re: lynn – Sorry, honey,you're not a genius. …deluded perhaps…
um… at least the baby will grow up having the courage to use her given birth name..
rather then "Perez Hilton" not using his birthname of Mario L to make their way in the world…. really Perez…. when you walk forward in Paris Hilton's borrowd glass slipper…. why do you have the fat audicity to judge an innocent newborn so harshly. tsch. tsch. tsch *slap*… get a grip man, grow up a wee bit better will 'ya, so we can stomach your try hard bllsh*t!
i can't wait for mariah to
get preggers and have a
baby, if she still can ..lmao.
butterfly or monarch carey cannon
..mark my words, beeyatches
Perez you are so bad…but I love you
so, i tell my sister about keith urban and nicole kidman's baby:
"they named her Sunday Rose"
"what the fuck? they named her
after icecream and a flower?"
I kinda like the name "Sunday"…congrates to Nicole and keith…now she can have a normal life..she paid her dues with her marriage to Tommy Boy
Re: tufe –
I AM A GENIUS!!
She deserves a little happiness in her life and if having a baby with her husband is what brings her happiness than so be it. I mean, shit - she has to deal with Tom Cruises' funky/nuts-o ass for so long I am sure this is bliss to her.
A BEAUTIFUL NAME FOR SURE.AS IS SUNNIE ROSE.I,M SURE SHE,LL BE CALLED……..BUT SINCE WHEN IS IT ANY OF OUR BUSINESS WHAT ANYONE NAMES THEIRE CHILDREN…..MUCH HAPPINESS NICOLE/KEITH.
From the side she looks so old. That forehead is huge too. Let's pray the baby inherited Keith's looks.
Just honestly the cruellest name ever, they want their child to sound like a stripping grandmother? It is such an old name. I just cannot stand the name Rose and especially if it is middle name. Some people need to be side-kicked in the head, not that the botox twins would feel it.
When are we gonna get REAL Hollywood movie stars again? Big forehead, shanty looking bitches are not cutting it. ATTENTION: beautiful , talented people, throw yourselves ar Hollywood producers so I have something nice to liik at in the upcoming years.
Perez- make everyday a cheat day!!! I like you better fat. Get real fat, I mean 400+ lbs. Everyone loves a big fat sassy gay. Bonus- it might make you're cookoo bigger, too.
If you do, "Sunday Roast Urban Cruise Kidman", you can just say "SRUCK" for short. Just a thought
Oh, sorry about the misspelings & the grammmar. It's just when I was growing up, people like Kidman were such phony losers. A life built on lies. Shanty.
PEREZCIOUS– Give us some DANE COOK!!! POOPFEST '08 ROCKS!!! SUFI!!!
SUNDAY ROAST IS YESTERDAYS JOKE!!! so fucking old perz GET YOUR OWN JOKES!!!! PSEveryone: Everytime I write this he takes down the post!!! haha
Who cares??
It's such a dumb name and i hate sundays.
Nicole is a botoxed witch.
All the morons who say she deserves happiness the bitch married Cruise for her career so stop feeling sorry for her she wanted it.
He made her a star she should be grateful.
Re: lynn – Your no genius, in your first post you tell us all how dumb you are. If my bloke was a shit-for-brains scientologist I would get the fuck outta there no matter many kids he bought me.
Sunday Rose is a beautiful name!!
I'm happy for them!
Who cares.
I bet without the plastic surgery, she would have jowls. Look how old she looks from the side. Disturbing. She reminds me of an old dude in drag to be honest.
Angelina Jolie is a million times better looking than this fake, bad acting, aussie attention whore.
so her name is dominga
Re: Ginga – 'Disturbing'??? What are you a fucking mental patient or something? - get a grip. At least she looks after herself.
Re: Ginga – She's fugly and has a big forehead. I never thought she was attractive. She could be Hellboy's sister.
Psht. And people say "Suri" is a silly name? Yeah sure, it's way worse than being named for a day, one you weren't even born on. And is it a coincidence? SUri and SUnday? Huh.
Look at the wrinkles on her neck. How her skin was pulled tight, but her neck is so wrinkly and aged. Why is that?
didn't take long did it!
Silly. But, whatever, it's their privilege. It would've been nice if they'd chosen something that was meaningful to both of them. But - again - it's their privilege. Can't wait to hear what the Brangelina twins will be named. To each their own.
Perez you are hilarious ay dios pero eres tremendo . besos
