Gwen Stefani's Homage to Bob Marley?
Filed under: Baby Blabber > Music Minute
Here's an interesting theory behind the baby name!
Judging from their babies' names, Gwen Stefani and Gavin Rossdale must be huge Bob Marley fans! And probably big stoner too!
Their newest baby is named Zuma Nesta Rock.
'Nesta' is Bob Marely's middle name, too!
Gwen and Gavin's eldest son is named Kingston.
The capital of Bob Marley's native Jamaica is Kingston!
Pretty cool!
One love y'all!

LOL…they ARE the biggest pot heads. Gotta love Gwen for it. And gotta make love to her husband for it.
cool !
No celebs, no breed….
this baby name is weirder than apple and almost as weird as pilot inspektor. can't they give their children normal names?!
duh. shouldn't take someone too long to figure that one out.
…………………………
ok i see the point.. but ZUMA???? all i can think of is the ball spitting warrior frog!!!
I can totally see Gwen, Gavin, Matt McConaughey, K-Fed and Garey Busey smoking out together.
so WTF about zuma?? did she play lots of computer games while preggers or what?? fucking weird……….i think she should have named him "chuzzle" instead
…great. now get back to the studio.
Re: Andy27 – i would smoke to that !!!!!!! well i would smoke to ANYTHING tho—- i admit it
Gwen is soo fuckin chill….I would love to hang out her
haha WITH her
Nesta is Bob Marley's legal first name. It was later changed to his middle name.
Re: Andy27 –
Dont forget Goldie Hawn and Kate Hudson and whichever dirty guys shes dating that month……
Kingston is ok I guess but Zuma is just pathetic
The name sounds like the drug "Lumanesta"
Re: karencarpenter – she's only just begun karen….. only just begun
First??
Re: Occupent – LMFAOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!! so true
Intresting, you did your homework Perez!!! I would expect better from them but, hey their child their choice.
Gwen isa big fan of Jamaica. I am glad she gave her sons such strong names.
Well hell yea! I knew from the second Kingston was named that it was homage to Marley!! It rocks!! He's my all time favorite!! One love bitches!!
awwwww, sweet!
isn't zuma the name of a juice bar? me thinks we have another brooklyn beckham here
Re: pbcrisp – Re: pbcrisp –
Basically! LMAO
Re: abercorey – TRUE!! Forgot about K-Hud!!! Maybe Mr. Pitt, too? Maniston for sure.
Excellent…
I like the name
Zuma is the most awful name ever. I don't care how much pot you smoke, or who it's after. Kingston fine. Zuma hideous.
I love Gwen!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I love Bob Marley's music. Never been anyone like him and never will.
i made that connection straight away coz my cousin's middle name is nesta after bob marley, 'zuma' is just inexcusable though
I'm still not sure about this name…Zuma isn't really a boy's name but whatever, not my child.
zuma? Even though he has a hot dad, I feel sorry for the poor kid!!!
Zuma? WTF! Nesta's alright though..
I hate how celebrities fuck their children up with stupid names. Screw these people and their poseur reggae crap.
That name is sooo faugly!!!!
ahd her kids will hate bob mayley's music, you'll see.
wtf?? oh well still isnt as bad as apple (Y)
now get back on tour kay??
(:
Re: abercorey –
I luv her 2…..
zzzzzzzzzzzzz
I would luv
zzzzzzzzz
2 chill
zzzzz
with
zzz
her.
zzz
Ok ZUMA is also a very popular game on msn LOL
We established this yesterday that Nesta is Bob Marley's middle name…. catch up Perez!
Zuma…. not feeling it. I think I can be honest to say I hate it. But, not my kid. I still love Gwen and her music is amazing. She looks great and is a class act from what media publishes anyhow…. pot head to rock music is water to a flower HAHA like we did not even think twice on that issue haha
or.. she could just be choosing jamaican names because of her love of jamaican culture… she is from a ska band.. not too far of a strectch really… nor is it a bob marely reference is it.
So her and no doubt do one album in jamacia, and now shes a hard core jamacian?
rap on white girl, rap on
I made that connection right away! Gwen loves her reggae! She's been in all sorts of reggae songs including her rock steady album with No Doubt.
Re: addictedtolost –
I think Wii
Hey, thanks for using my painting! You could credit me too,
Peace.
You white people are sooooo fucking late! It took you that long to figure it out? And why when you think Bob Marley you have to think that they are pot heads? He wasn't just known for his weed consumption. He is one of the greatest musicians ever. Maybe they just respect that aspect of it? I know many people named after Bob Marley.
Re: Ashley.. –
True that.
Dumb ass names.
wow. took you a while to figure that one out.
Or you could take it off…
Peace.
I love Bob Marley too, but I'm not going to set my son up for getting his ass kicked on a regular basis just to honor him. Come on people. Names like that should be reserved for your pets; not your children. Quit being so selfish!
Why does everyone care so much about celebrities' babies? Yeah, babies are cute, but this obsession with stars' kids is just plain weird and voyeuristic. Just snap out of it…I'm just saying:-)
I'm the biggest pot head in the world and I would never do that to my kid. Stupid.
Zuma was the name of a 1975 Neil Young album.
