Ryan Reynolds Defends Naming His Baby James
Ryan Reynolds was on Good Morning Britain to promote his new movie Deadpool, and got to chatting about his daughter, James. After host Kate Garraway said it was unusual for a girl to have that name, Reynolds replied, “In the spectrum of like, weird celebrity baby names, I feel like we’re not really breaking any new ground here … I mean, I didn’t call her Summer Squash Meadow Lark or something.”
“I also thought of just going with all the letters being silent in her name, and it would just be pronounced. …” Reynolds said before just exhaling, as though that was a name. “Brought to you by the department of giving dumb celebrities ideas,” he added, laughing.
Reynolds doesn’t see the fact that two celebrities have a baby as the biggest and most important thing in the world. “It’s the most common thing in the world, yet it’s also the most profound, so there’s this weird paradox with [it], you know,” he mused. “You just don’t want to be one of those awful celebrities who are talking about it like they’re the only person on Earth who’s managed to conceive and bear a child.”
