A week ago Sunday, the birth of Kourtney Kardashian's third child captivated the celebrity gossip world, and not just because this happened to fall on her first-born's birthday.
The baby name that she picked out - Reign Aston Disick - was an all-timer.
North West. The spawn of Kimye being named after a direction may be the dumbest thing in human history. At the same time, if she doesn't grow up to have a signature fragrance called North by North West, this is not a planet we wanna be living on.
A unanimous, first ballot Celebrity Baby Name Hall of Fame inductee, Reign (a boy) may or may not have been a tribute to his father, The Lord Scott Disick.
[Note: Scott became a British Lord on Keeping Up With the Kardashians. He is not an actual religious figure, though he does use his title jokingly in that context]
Or it maybe have been a tribute to the CW's Reign. Probably less likely.
Regardless of the inspiration, Kourtney and Scott are not the first celebrities to treat the act of naming a child like it were a parlor game of Can You Top This.
They're not even the first members of their own extended family, in fact.
Not unlike Reign's first cousin North West, who was named as part of Kanye's "art," Kourt and Scott probably thought they were being trendy and cool.
Other stars just mailed it in or were likely high as a kite at the time.
We weren't there for the internal discussions, of course, but coming up with baby names this absurd takes real commitment and/or total aloof ambivalence.
Either way, it kind of deserves our appreciation. At least in a sense.
Who else has hereby been enshrined in the Celebrity Baby Name Hall of Fame along with North West, Reign Aston Disick and their oddly-named ilk?

Please tell us this man did not get arrested for knocking over a convenience store. Or that this is what he stole. Please.
