Jessica Simpsons baby name

Jessica Simpson had a baby girl. She named it Maxwell Drew

As a kid, it will sound like a boy's name and she will be teased.

As an adult, especially if she looks anything like her blond busty mom, she will sound like a stripper.

Re: Jessica Simpsons baby name

  • That's a gem.  Maybe her nickname will be "Maxi" as in maxi pad.
  • I'm kind of disappointed.. I remember a few months ago she talked about how they'd picked out a "classic" name and I thought she said feminine? I could be wrong... but that name doesn't seem to fit the criteria. Although I guess Maxwell is classic.... just not as a girls name. Whatever. Haha

    Gross.  Boys names on girls is a bad trend.  I was hoping her name choice was a joke when the rumors spread she was planning on Maxwell.

  • Dear Jessica:

    Congrats on the kid!

    Thanks for ruining 2 of only a handful of perfectly good boy's names out there.

    Hope you're starting a savings plan for the future therapy precious little Maxwell Drew is bound to need.

     Sincerely,
    Dairy who believes there are a billion cute useable girls' names out there but few boy names.

  • And isn't drew her ex brother in law's name??

    Just not for a girl.

  • Ugh. I bet she is a precious little girl too.

  • I had forgotten she announced she was having a girl. When I first heard the name, my thought was "Oh good. He has a normal name, unlike his cousin." Oops. I do think it's a great name...for a boy.

    My Bio

  • If she has a boy next, will she name it Rebecca?

     

    Maxwell is in my both family and DH's family (weird since it's not a common name), but I refuse to let this airhead move ruin it for me.

    Drew is her mother's maiden name.

    I don't hate it....it is very...Jessica Simpson. And I like the name Maxi.

  • Well... I have a traditional boy's name and I'm not emotionally damaged or anything.  And I didn't get beat up every day on the playground, either.  It bugged me when I was in elementary school and there were three other kids with my name... all boys.  The older I got, though, the more I loved my name.  However, my name (Alex) is a bit more unisex, I suppose.  I think the kid will be okay.

    And there is always Drew Barrymore . . . I don't hate it either. 

  • I realize I am in the minority on this one, but I actually really like the name!

    I have a boys name and have never really gotten teased for it. Close friends will poke fun, but not in a malicious way. I think a girl named Max is adorable:)

  • It's not my favorite but I don't hate it.  It's a heck of a lot better than Mowgli, or however you spell his cousin's name.  My middle name (and what I've been called for much of my life) is Ryan and I love it.

  • I like it. 

     Especially since Maxwell is Jessica's husband Eric's middle name. Drew is Jessica's mom's middle name.

  • I think it's adorable!

    Maxine is a girls name and most often shortened to Max.

    I don't think she'll be teased at all, and very sweet that both are family names and not something insane like Apple, or Blanket.

  • I actually like it!

    It's unique, but not out there like some celeb baby names are.  It didn't register to me that it's a boy's name, just a nice, solid name. 

  • My best friends name is Christen Michael and has always gone by Chris. I don't think the name thing is a big deal.
