It's a Boy for Anthony Kiedis

Anthony Kiedis, frontman for the band Red Hot Chili Peppers, and his girlfriend, model Heather Christie, welcomed a son October 2. In a move that has left the baby name industry spinning, they decided to name their child Everly Bear.



Rather than launch into what we think of the name, let's hear from Anthony:

We had a long list of names, but suppose it came to me by way of the Everly
Brothers, which is one of my favorite bands. And sometimes last names make good first names.


And why Bear?

The mama came up with Bear. That made sense to me because he's from me and I
feel like I'm part of the bear clan, and I think it's nice to have a little bit
of earth in your name.

Well ... isn't that lovely. We just hope the next child isn't named Turner Kitten. Perhaps Jackson Cougar? What do you think?
