In case you haven’t noticed, celebrities tend to give their children some really interesting names, and the current champ is the newborn son of Rick Ross and his girlfriend Briana Camille: Billion.

Announcing the birth of his son, he tweeted:

Let’s all welcome my son ‘Billion Leonard Roberts’ to the world 🌍… 🙏🏽

And then he tweeted again:

Thank you @OfficialBelaire and everyone one for the #love #BillionLeonardRoberts 👑 pic.twitter.com/IuYF1UylcV

Here’s my theory about the name: Rick Ross’ actual name is William Leonard Roberts II, and he already has a son named William III. So, by naming his second son Billion, he’s kinda sorta rhyming the names, while adding an, um, affluent touch.

Plus, the Miami rapper just really, really likes the word “billion”: two of his songs are “Billionaire” and “Hood Billionaire”, after all.

Anyways, while we’re on the topic of weird celebrity baby names, here’s a list of 20 of the wildest names celebs gave their kids, in no particular order.

1. Pilot Inspektor

The son of actor Jason Lee and Beth Riesgraf.

2. Audio Science

Actress Shannyn Sossamon named her son Audio Science, and I don’t know why.

3. Poppy Honey Rosie, Daisy Boo Pamela, Buddy Bear Maurice, Petal Blossom Rainbow, and River Rocket Blue Dallas Oliver

The many children of celebrity chef Jamie Oliver.

4. Rumi, Sir, and Blue Ivy

The three kids of Beyonce and Jay-Z.

5. Moon Unit, Dweezil, and Diva Thin Muffin

Musician Frank Zappa thought it would be a good idea to give his children these names.

6. Apollo Bowie Flynn, Kingston James McGregor, and Zuma Nesta Rock

Okay, Gwen Stefani and Gavin Rossdale.

7. Kal-El

Nicolas Cage named his son after Superman’s alien name.

8. Jermajesty

Jermaine Jackson’s incredibly-named son.

9. Moxie CrimeFighter

Penn Jillette’s kid sounds powerful.

10. Tu

This name is only funny when you realize her father is Rob Morrow, so her name is Tu Morrow. You know, like tomorrow.

11. Cricket

The cute child of actress Busy Phillips is named after an insect.

12. North

Kim Kardashian and Kanye West named their child after a cardinal direction, and it’s especially interesting considering her last name is another cardinal direction.
