Ready for another crazy celebrity baby name?
By Samantha Eng — Written on Jul 19, 2013
Josh Duhamel played coy this week after revealing that he and wife Fergie are expecting a baby boy at the end of summer.
While Fergie officially changed her name from Stacy Ferguson to Fergie Duhamel just recently, this celebrity couple chooses to "keep it within the family" when it comes to naming their little tyke.
"Some people may not like it, some people may think it's really cool, but we don't really care—that’s why we’re not telling anybody," he explains to People magazine about his son's moniker.
Even Grandma's in the dark. "We're not even telling [Fergie's] mom because we don't want to hear anything about it. That way you don't feel like you're second-guessing yourself. It's between us—it's a sacred thing."
It's a sacred thing? Um … Fergie just changed her last name to Duhamel after four years of marriage at almost seven months pregnant.
I digress. Back to the baby name …
"[The name is] kind of traditional, kind of not. My wife is a little rock and roll, so she's a little bit more daring in that department than I am," he says. "We decided on a name that we both really love and I think will suit this child."
Read between the lines: We're looking at another Cricket, Ace Knute, or North West. (Extra credit if you can name their famous mommies!) Please, Fergie and Josh, not another Pilot Inspektor.
If I had to take a guess, knowing Fergie's out there style and Duhamel's tolerance, here's what we might expect:
Elephunk: The chance meeting with The Black Eyed Peas—and the success of their first album Elephunk—launched Fergie to fame, thereby making her a household name. And rich.
Vegas: Las Vegas was the name of Josh's successful TV series, and where he met his future bride in September of 2004 when The Black Eyed Peas guest-starred on an episode.
Montana: While Duhamel says his "wife is a little rock and roll," it's a well-known fact that Fergie is a huge sports fan thanks to her dad and has been a minority owner of the Miami Dolphins since 2009. Montana would be a tribute to her childhood hero, Joe Montana.
