Here's our A-Z list of the weird and wonderful baby names celebrities have given to their offspring!

With lots of newborn-sized additions to the world of celebrity over the past few years, we've put together a gallery to celebrate the best celebrity baby names – and they're handily ordered from A-Z for your browsing pleasure.

From traditional names like Ethel (Lily Allen's little girl) and Pearl (Jack Osbourne's eldest) to the more, erm, unique ones like Audio Science (the name actress Shannyn Sossamon picked for her son), we've loved seeing all of the unusual celebrity baby names that have been picked, and gathered plenty of ideas for our own future offspring too.

If you're expecting and haven't decided on a name for your little bundle of joy, then click through our gallery and take inspiration from these utterly original celebrity baby names. From soap stars to Hollywood A-listers, there's baby boy and girl name ideas from celebs from the worlds of film, modelling, music, television and more, and all have lovely unique meanings so you can make an informed decision. Celebrities are pretty good at standing out from the crowd, so it's no surprise that their choices won't be found on any lists of most popular baby names either!

Our favourites have to be the names that Desperate Housewives star, Marcia Cross, chose for her twin girls: Eden and Savannah. So pretty! And the (unofficial) award for Best Celebrity Dad has to go to chef, Jamie Oliver, whose four kids have the cutest names; Poppy, Daisy, Petal and Buddy. We bet they have the best packed lunches in the country!

However, we're big fans of pretty much all of these celebrity baby names, especially once we'd heard the personal stories behind them.

The meaning of the name Ace is often interpreted as: 'one who excels', although it is also an English surname which means 'noble'.

Apollo Bowie Flynn is the name of Gwen Stefani's youngest son with her ex-husband Gavin Rossdale. He was born in February 2014, and Gwen described him a 'miracle' after one of his big brothers prayed for his appearance.

'He has a direct link to God, basically. He asked me, "Mum, are you gonna have a baby? I want you to have a baby," the singer explained during an appearance on Late Night. '[He prayed] Dear God, please let my mum have a baby. Please, God! Please let my mum have a baby! Four weeks later, I was pregnant!'

The pair are clearly fans of unusual baby names, as their other boys are named Kingston James McGregor (born in May 2006) and Zuma Nesta Rock (born August 2008).

It sounds pretty contemporary, but Apollo is actually a classic Greek baby name meaning 'manly beauty'.

It was a 2000s TV dream when Leighton Meester of Gossip Girl and Adam Brody of the OC got married and became parents to little girl Arlo Day, whom they welcomed in August 2015.

Arlo was the first child for the couple, although if Adam has his way, she won't be the last.

In a Reddit interview in 2015, he was asked how many babies he'd like with Leighton.

'I say 12,' he replied. 'And I decide.'

Arlo, meaning 'army' or 'hill', is traditionally a baby name for boys, but we agree with Leighton and Adam - it's a lovely choice for a daughter too!

Art is usually short for Arthur but in Ireland it is a seperate name that comes from an ancient word for 'a bear,' used in the sense relating to the terms 'warrior' or 'champion'.

The late Peaches Geldof is mum to sons Astala Dylan Willow, born April 2012, and Phaedra Bloom Forever, born April 2013, with husband Thomas Cohen.

When asked about her unusual choice of baby name for her first child, Peaches explained: 'We found Astala in a baby name book - quite an obscure one. This is going to be a very stylish baby.'

'I wanted a Jewish name because my fiance is a Jew and the name is the male version of Esther.'

When Peaches passed away in 2015, Thomas released a statement saying: 'My beloved wife Peaches was adored by myself and her two sons Astala and Phaedra and I shall bring them up with their mother in their hearts every day.'

Gone Girl actress Rosamund Pike gave birth to her second son in December 2014, and a few months later, a close friend revealed that the new bundle of joy was named Atom.

Her first child, Solo, was born in 2012.

Jennifer Love Hewitt and husband Brian named their second son Atticus James.

The actress didn't confirm the reasoning behind her choice, but it's possible that she took inspiration from the classic novel To Kill A Mockingbird, as Atticus is the name of the book's central character. The name is Latin and traditionally means 'man of Attica'.

The couple are clearly big fans of A names, as they are also parents to daughter Autumn.

Audio Science - believe it or not that's what A Knight's Tale actress Shannyn Sossamon called her son!

She explained, 'We wanted a word not a name, so my boyfriend read through the dictionary three or four times. We were going to call him Science, but thought it might get shortened to Sci, as in Simon.'

Shanyn later welcomed a second son, Mortimer.

Actress Charlize Theron adopted an African-American baby girl in August 2015 and named her, rather appropriately, August.

Black Eyed Peas singer Fergie gave birth to son Axl Jack in August 2013 - and says that the name came to her in a dream!

'I had this dream, and I was in the audience at this festival,' she recalled during an appearance on The Ellen DeGeneres Show later that year. 'It was outdoors and it was all grimy and nobody knew who I was. I was just one of the fans. It was like the old days. It was so cool. And onstage singing was Jim Morrison. And then came Bob Marley, and then Axl Rose.'

'I mean, I was in heaven in this dream. And I'm dancing and just getting into the music, and then all of a sudden, boom boom! And I wake up, and it was the first time my son kicked me in the stomach.'

'It was like he was feeling the music with me. It was amazing.' she gushes. 'I woke Josh [Duhamel, her husband] up and I said, "Honey, honey, honey -- he kicked me. He finally kicked me." And I told him my dream, and he was like, 'Wow.''

Comedian David Mitchell and his writer and broadcaster wife Victoria Coren are known for keeping their private life underwraps, so we're not surprised that when their daughter Barbara arrived in May 2015, the pair were exceptionally low-key about their news.

Victoria announced the birth on her Twitter account, writing: 'We've got a daughter!!! Barbara Elizabeth June Mitchell, very small and sweet. All three of us are extremely happy and sleepy' - sounds like an accurate description of motherhood to us...

Barbara is an English name derived from the Greek 'barbaros', meaning 'foreign' or 'strange', 'traveler from a foreign land'.

Kate has two other children from previous relationships, Mia and Joe.

Madonna was born in May 2006.

Bluebell is a traditional flower baby name, and Geri told Hello! magazine the flowers had seemed to be everywhere she looked towards the end of her pregnancy.

In January 2017, Geri gave birth to a son, whom she named Montague.

Victoria later put the record straight in her autobiography, Learning to Fly, where she explained that she'd liked the name Brooke, but knew she was having a boy, and liked the name because it felt 'very multi-cultural, very grounded'.

Neil Patrick Harris and his husband David Burtka got double trouble when their adorable twins Harper and Gideon were born via surrogate in 2010.

Gideon, for example, could be 'a scientist or a guitar player in a band,' he said.
