Geri Halliwell and Penn Jillette are apparently competing in an unofficial contest to see who can come up with the worse baby name. Jillette and his wife named their baby boy Zolten Penn Jillette, saying in a statement: “Zolten is a common Hungarian name, it’s my wife’s maiden name and most importantly, it’s the name of Dracula’s dog.” Not to be outdone, Geri Halliwell announced that she named her daughter Bluebell Madonna Halliwell after a rare flower and, well, Madonna.
“But what really clinched it for me was my mother telling me that the bluebell is increasingly rare–so it’s [a] precious flower, which seems just right for my daughter,” Halliwell said. “As she came out of my tummy, Bluebell had both arms flung wide in the air as if announcing to the world, ‘Hi! I’m here!’ She was screaming her head off, as though she was shouting, ‘Hello, Wembley!’ No one else has that name, apart from the Virgin Madonna and the singer, whom I love.”
They should make it a prerequisite for pregnancy that you not be stupid enough to name your child after Dracula’s dog or some dumb flower. They take kids away for being abused by their parents, but being named Zolten or Bluebell has to be way worse than a smack across the face. There’s pretty much zero chance of Bluebell going through life without adopting the nickname “Blue Balls.” Just typing this post I almost typed “Blue Balls” by accident like eight times.
Yes, Babe the blue ox.
He was seven ax handles wide, the same width as Britney’s ass.
Kinda expected the Canadians to chime in about any blue ox corrections
Jacq; Thanks, but have you actually said Tranny Spice out loud? Ask for it, at the supermarket.
“Mom can I tell you what I want, what I really really want?”
“Yes, darling, what is it?
*kicks in cunt* “thanks for the name, bitch”
Why would Canadians know anything about Babe the Blue Ox? It’s in Bemidji, Minnesota.
“A lumberjack of huge size and strength, Paul Bunyan has become a folkloric character in the American psyche. It is said that he and his blue ox, Babe, were so large their footsteps created Minnesota’s ten thousand lakes. Babe measured 42 axe handles and a plug of chewing tobacco between his horns. He was found during the winter of the blue snow; his mate was Bessie, the Yaller Cow.”
Bessie sounds like a distant relative of Britney’s.

Didn’t the Beatles record a song called “Bluebell Madonna”? Also sounds like the kind of vision a cow named Bluebell would have while contentedly chewing her cud and ruminating on the heavenly visitation from the Glorious Virgin Mary in her muddy-ass field. It sounds nothing like anything to do with that skank-ho Geri Halliwell. Did the father have any say in this naming shit? On second thought, wouldn’t most guys like to name their daughters “Damnitsnotaboy”?
Star maker;
It was a lame crack towards Canada’s proud lumberjacking heritage. I’ll try harder *hangs head in shame*
I pity Penn’s kid and I pity Penn as well. I fi nd his stuff kinda of funny. I really couldn’t really crae less about the spice girl worthless the whole lotta them.
She named her kid after a common stinking weed and an ugly, has-been fag hag.
These people should all be rounded up, put up against a wall and shot, their bodies left to drain all their excrement into the sewers and be fed on by a pack of chihuahuas.
Cut to: 18 yrs from now. Madonna Bluebell afixes a sight on her high-powered rifle atop the town square’s water tower. She takes a drag off her methol Kools and exhales. She rubs on the self-inflicted scar on her wrist as echoes of the teasing she received as a school-girl bounce in her head. Resolute, she slides the bolt back on the fire-arm and…
110 Script
…shoots herself in the vagina, so she will never be tempted to unleash cruel, social hell upon her offspring.
A homeless man down the street from the incident is praying to God for a sign that God will be there to help said homeless man. Crying to the sky, looking up, mouth open, crying, begging, pleading with God for an answer to his problems, a bloody bloody vulva lands in his mouth.
He later becomes President, and a renouned cannibal.
granted, as another poster mentioned, the name is spelled ‘zolt
111 post-script
Having controlled his desire for flesh for years after having devoured the Olsen twins that ill fated night down in Florida. It was easy enough, convincing the press it had been alligators, but he knew better. Now, after all have left, it’s amazing how quiet the White House can be on a Saturday night as the drunken Hilton girl lies in the secret hallway. But, what to do about the relentless oozing from her crotch? He hasn’t cut into her yet, what to do? Oh, yes yes the antiseptic powder for dogs….
Not Canadian, and trying really hard now to get the Monty Python “I’m a Lumberjack” song out of my head…
Too tired to comment about the stupid baby name…who is the father anyway? Is it Penn Jillette?
I can’t believe she is 30 or around that age. There’s no way she’s younger than me with that face skin that looks way older than me. Who needs money when you still end up looking like the leather on an old cowboy’s saddle?
Actually, I met someone once named Madonna. She was born before Madonna (the singer, not the Mother of God) got famous.
Just saying.
And I thought there was something wrong with my parents when they called a chick Louie…..

I think the proper spelling of that name is Zoltan. Check out Mariska Hargitay on imdb. Her bros name is Zoltan. Bitchin.
I’m Hungarian and it is spelled Zoltan and not Zolten. I’m not sure why that name is sooo bad. Just because it isn’t English?
37. Wrong

hey sbj16 like you could do any better bet you named your kid something like machavelli or something, weirdo.
Apparently she lives in a bubble and does not realize that the spanish speaking catholic cultures often use the name Madonna?
“Zolten is a common Hungarian name, it’s my wife’s maiden name and most importantly, it’s the name of Dracula’s dog.”
Wrong. Zolten is not a hungarian name. However “Zolt
Hey Jacq, you forgot me, SpiceSpice!
I just developed a theory about these bizarre celebrity names. I think they totally make up the most bizarre names they can think of to tell the press, but the birth certificate has the real name which is something common like “Jane” or “Joe.” Surely that must be the explanation. Nobody would really name their kid after ice cream, would they? If so, my next kid will be Cherry Garcia.
@ 131 Mouth
Mouth, I would never name my kid something as stupid as Makaveli. I’d pay homage to my father if my baby was a boy and name him Nevin. I bet you don’t know anybody named Nevin, do you you freak? If it was a girl I would name her something normal like Alexis. You probably like these weird names like Apple and Pilot Inspektor you loser!

“With a Bluebell Halliwell, give a dog a bone…” Hah! How appropriate in so many ways….
It’s really none of our business what other people name their kids. As far as I can tell, from his writing, and from seeing him in Las Vegas, he must be a very loving father. The most beautiful thing is he’s probably going to teach his kids to be skeptical. We need more skepticism in this world. Not cynicism. Skepticism. As a whole, we don’t question things enough. It’s why belief in a God is still so widespread. I choose not to believe in A God; I choose to believe in all of the gods. I believe that Zeus created Mohamed and that Mohamed went to grade school with Jesus and Zulu. Then Thor said unto them, “Be godly,” and then they were gods. I also believe in Joe Pesci as a god. On Friday nights I pray to George Carlin.
You guys need to learn to get the correct information before you talk about something you know nothing of. “CrimeFighter” is Moxie’s middle name, and it was Penn’s wife’s, Emily’s, idea. She figured, “Nobody knows anyone’s middle name anyway, so we might as well have fun with it.” Seems perfectly reasonable to me. Penn is a very funny guy, but he most certainly is not an idiot. As for Zoltan, he was named after Emily’s maiden name. It’s Hungarian. I guess you guys would be the kind of people to say “Wan-Hu” is a stupid name for an Asian-American, simply because it doesn’t follow American pattern. This is the kind of thing Penn hates: when people talk about shit they don’t even know about. Do your fucking homework, then make an argument.
