As any red-blooded, People-reading, ET-watching American knows, Gwyneth Paltrow named her little girl Apple.
Why does this concern me? What can I say? I worry for children who's parents, in the wake of the star's fruit-naming ways, will be inspired to seek baby names in the produce aisles. The playground can be tough enough without sporting a name like Pear or Banana.
And, with the Wall Street Journal reporting that exotic fruits are gaining mainstream appeal, can names like Cherimoya Sender, Durian Bryant and Lychee Horowitz be far off?
Do you want to be named after the fruit you see above? If so, consider yourself Kiwano Reeves.
