  23. 123

    Interesting….



  24. 124

    I'll just sit here and roll my eyeballs…



  25. 125

    Bronx was my Rats name so there child is going to look like a RAT hahahahahaahaa



  26. 126

    Aww how cute! I think the name's adorable. There are wayyyy worse celebrity children names out there. Congrats Ash and Pete! :)



  27. 127

    Thats really bad.



  28. 128

    I wonder what grandpa Joe Simpson has to say about all this. I am sure he is BEYOND thrilled to call his first grandchild after a city borough and a character straight out of a childrens' story. Wasn't the character of Mowgli also WITHOUT parents, ie. an "orphan" until the "jungle" adopted him?
    Have they thought all the implications of this through? I think NOT.
    Congratulations on his birth though. Hoping the stars will see what mistakes are made in about 25 years when the first of their children goes to court for renaming themselves legally.



  29. 129

    congrat ashley and pete God bless you and your family



  30. 130

    why Mowgli? I thought Aladdin was pretty cool too. Or.. Simba. Bronx Simba Wentz? Better or worse…?



  31. 131

    n'kay - whatevs, another name some kid will be harassed about for years



  32. 132

    ugly naaaaaaaaaaaaaammmeeee

  33. zee91 says – reply to this

  35. 135

    i gotta say congrats though



  36. 136

    Mowgli (Syndrome) is also the name of the syndrome that 'feral children' obtain



  37. 137

    that is the shitiest name ever. I had a hamster named Mowgli. wentz is a shitty name and BRONX? wtf? IDIOT Pete Wentz obviously chose the name!



  38. 138

    Well, it could have been worse with those two.



  39. 139

    Who gives a fuck about this phony, I thought she was caught lip synching? Yet repackaged with a new nose job and hair color and the media continues to shove he down our throats? Talentless fucking retard.

  40. -liz- says – reply to this


    140

    ok well he'll just be known as Bronx! So we now have Brooklyn and Bronx!



  41. 141

    It's THEIR CHILD! Besides most celebs just go by first and last names. As long as its happy and healthy, that's all that matters. Some of you really need to get over yourselves. I wish they waited a little longer though before having a kid, they are both still very young.



  42. 142

    what a cute name!



  43. 143

    Celebrities need to stop the insanity. Its like they are in competition with one another on weirdest kid names.



  44. 144

    bout time she had it!
    and i like the name Bronx…
    but Mowgli? no thats just insane.



  45. 145

    Yet another oddball name from a celeb couple. Tiberius is a much cooler name.



  46. 146

    WHYYYY can't celebs name their children NORMAL names?! Ashlee and Pete - pretty normal, Bronx?!

  47. WayK says – reply to this


    147

    they should have called it Mowgli Tarzan Zouba Zouba. wtf this kid is going to suffer.



  48. 148

    Oh for Christ's sake! Why in God's name would they saddle their kid with such a stupid ass name!?!?!?!?!? WTF is wrong w/ these boneheads??????



  49. 149

    The fucktards just made a future serial killer with that fucked up name!!!



  50. 150

    Oh wow, you guys didn't know who Mowgli was…? He's a bloody legend, he was a kid who could talk to animals, I think it's so cute that Pete gave him that middle name…cos it was obviously Pete, he's in LOVE with that book.



  51. 151

    ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha hahaahhahhaaa what a fucked up name. bronx is cool, but how old is mowgli & does she expect monkeys to raise his little ass too? lol



  52. 152

    luvs it. but not the middle name… but who am i to hate on those too:)

  53. lje says – reply to this


    153

    That's terrible…another one of those "don't try this at home" names.



  54. 154

    i cannot believe how retarded that name is. seriously. name the kid something people can pronounce….bronx?!

  55. Rieco says – reply to this


    155

    I feel REALLY bad for that kid
    wtf his name is so gay.



  56. 156

    MOWGLI IS A BEAUTIFUL NAME! BRAVO!



  57. 157

    eh, no less weird than sunday, peanut, or zuma. bronx wentz is actually kind of a cool name, not so sure about the jungle book name but hey, if nicolas cage can name his son kal-el after superman well good on pete and ashlee, hehe. congrats to the two of them on the safe arrival of bmw. :D



  58. 158

    was she watching disney in the labor room!!!!



  59. 159

    omg, they want him to be gay.



  60. 160

    What a couple fucking retards they are. That baby of their's is going to be tortured by that name. He will be the kid that is teased all the time. Mowgli, hey jungle boy. Fuckheads. They are clearly on drugs to do this to him.



  61. 161

    well that's…….different



  62. 162

    well at least he'll fit in with the rest of the hollywood children. pretty much all of hollywood's children has a weird name.



  63. 163

    Let me fuckin guess how they came up with the name! They fucked in the Bronx on a hot and sticky night while watching Mowgli in the Jungle Book Movie, and the little monkey was
    conceived. Nice. No, not nice. Now us haters can tease the
    little monkey for eternity. Like Cournty Cox's CoCo the MONKEY.
    IDIOTS, I TELL YOU, IDIOTS.



  64. 164

    Re: Reginald Perrin – Kids? Ashlee and her husband are both adults. How the hell old are you that you're calling them kids?



  65. 165

    why would you name your child after a social fire point in new york? i mean. how painful has that birth been that they punish the baby like that? In general, I find it ridiculous how hard people try to be original these days. It's awful and in a couple years the world will be filled with fruits and cities… And astronomic shrink bills…



  66. 166

    Re: Lucy Smithers – I think the word you were thinking of is SCRABBLE. Not scramble.



  67. 167

    Grandpoppa Simpson will pimp the hell out of that offspring.



  68. 168

    bronx….brooklyn….any other new york towns that are not used yet????



  69. 169

    congrats pete and ashley!!!



  70. 170

    Re: SheriMoonZombie – Calling children monkeys? You're a piece of work. Let's hope you never reproduce.



  71. 171

    Suckish name. :/
    Why do stars name their kids weird names? XD

    RUN PETE AND BABY! RUN! Papa Joe is coming! :0



  72. 172

    GAY



  73. 173

    I like Bronx,just as I like Pax, Maddox, Suri, Shiloh,Honor, Lourdes, Pirate, Zeppelin, Kingston, Zuma, I mean, we're strong now, nothing can surprise us anymore !!!! My favourite is Zahara Marley, this name just rocks all by itself!



  74. 174

    Mowgli from da bronx. niiiiiiiice



  75. 175

    stupid celebrity baby names. When all these little bastards are teens theyre going to ruin and run the east and west coast…. some one save us!



  76. 176

    I think it is alright… I like the initials lol



  77. 177

    i would love to be a fly on the wall to hear the conversation where they decide THAT is what they're going to name their kid.



  78. 178

    WTF!!



  79. 179

    Love it!



  80. 180

    poor child…having ashlee as it's mom is bad enough…



  81. 181

    I don't understand people who saddle their children with such horrible names all for the sake of being different. Poor kid.



  82. 182

    Fuckin' retarded!



  83. 183

    Oh, how wonderfully awful. Way to make an effort to be different and trendy. I'm sorry.



  84. 184

    Wow, that's ridiculous. Idiots.

  85. melb says – reply to this


    185

    That is pretty bad-



  86. 186

    Ugh - shows their ridiculous immaturity. Trying so hard to be different, yet copying the x of Brad / Angelina. Poor kid - his parents are total losers, his aunt is dreadful, his grandfather is horrendous - he's got no shot. Bronx Mowgli Wentz?? These stupid celebrities, yes, I am also talking to you, Queen Gwyneth, are so out of touch with reality, they have no idea the pain they are causing their kids … idiots, all of them. I hope the entire extended Simpson clan just goes the F*CK away now!!!!

  87. Bevi says – reply to this


    187

    In a perfect world the kid would be called Mowg by his friends. Mowg all the way. Mowg Wentz. Much cooler than Bronx Wentz. Still, they could have named him something better. Look at their names, Ashlee and Pete… and then we have baby Bronx Mowgli. Uh huh.



  88. 188

    Poppa you already got the kid a recording contract but wishes it had tits!



  89. 189

    his nickname should be B.M.



  90. 190

    For them to come up with such a stupid name, I can only assume they were thinking with the wrong head.



  91. 191

    that is so stupid right up there with apple and alabama…



  92. 192

    awe. I like the name Bronx. Very cute. And maybe the name Mowgli has sentimental meaning. Sheesh why does everybody have to be so mean? One love people.



  93. 193

    Re: rhyssa – I have an Ella too. :) And a Julia.

    Congrats to them on their baby :)

    OUCH on the name!



  94. 194

    LOLS. Crazy.



  95. 195

    worst name ever.



  96. 196

    WTF???? Poor kid's gonna get his ass kicked on a regular basis when he gets to school. Bronx Wentz. It just sounds retarded.



  97. 197

    They're trying to be on Hollywood's list of celebs with unusual children's names. But this is RIDICULOUS. I feel so sorry for that little girl, but at least she can legally change it when she turns 18.



  98. 198

    Well it's about time! Congradulations!!!!!!



  99. 199

    I meant little boy, lol



  100. 200

    An awful name. Don't these people THINK about their actual child or are they too busy trying to out do each other?! Shocking.
