Names -> Weird Names of Music Performer's Children -> D

You think your parents gave you a strange name? Try being born to a rock star. It seems like strange names are just part of what you have to put up with. The most memorable of course would have to be Moon Unit for the daughter of the late great Frank Zappa.

Devo	Maynard James Keenan (TOOL, A Perfect Circle)	If my father named me that I'd shoot myself!	The Flea
Devo	Maynard James Keenan		blue
Devo	Maynard James Keenan (Tool/APC)	I really like this name. You don't see it much (I've never seen or heard it before) and that's why it's cool. And I'm sure this kid is just as beautiful and talented as his daddy.	Zara

Dhani	George And Olivia Harrison	I think this is a beautiful name for the best looking Beatle offspring there is. So unique.	celia
Dhani	George Harrison	Just chiming in about Dhani. "dhani" pronounced dhuh-nee is indeed a Hindi word meaning wealthy. Dhani's name is pronounced "Danny", as others have said, and both meanings (the musical and the financial) appear to be quite apt!	Mary
Dhani	George Harrison	Pronounced "Danny", as pronounced by Paul McCartney and others in the Concert for George.	Cyn
Dhani	George Harrison	Pronounced DOH-NI, an English name with a hint of Hindu. I think its such a beautifull name.	Lisa
Dhani Harrison	George Harrison	Yes, it's pronounced "danny", and the musical scale thing is right (or at least very popularly wrong). I don't know if he has a middle name, but I think I've read somewhere that George's middle name was Harold after his father.	another nitpicker
Dhani Harrison	George Harrison	It's pronounced danny, and it means wealthy in Hindi. George did (and probably still does) have an obsession with India; thus Dhani's middle names are Hare which means worship and then all of the existing Hindu gods. He doesn't even know all of these names since there are thousands.	a pacifist
Dhani Harrison	George Harrison	As a gigantic George and Dhani Harison fan, I'll just correct a few things for you. 1. It's pronounced "Danny", not "Donnie". 2. George became interested in Indian mysticism in 1966, during the filming of "Help!", not 1965. 3. Dhani's middle name, contrary to popular belief, is not Hare. Both he and George were not given middle names. 4. Dhani's name is rumoured to mean "wealthy" in Sanskrit, not Hindi. Again, this has not been proven.	Kay
Dhani Harrison	George Harrison	Pronounced "Donnie". It' s actually an Indian name, because George was obsessed with India from 1965 until his death and probably even after that.	correction
Dhani Harrison	George Harrison	Pronounced 'dah-nee', it is part of the Indian musical scale (equivilant of the European 'Do-re-me-fa-so-la-te') It goes: 'Ma, pa, dah, ni... ma (mom), pa (dad), dah-ni (Dahni, the son)'.	luc
Dhani Harrison	George Harrison	Pronounced "Danny".	Karla
Diamond Ti'aira	Angie Stone		Eric Andrews

Diesile	Tony Braxton-Lewis		Meme
Diezel Ky	Toni Braxton	Yes, shhe gave her second son a weird name, too.	ayane
Diva	Frank Zappa		ChuckyG
Diva & Wilder	Curt Smith	Curt has 2 daughters - Diva and Wilder. I think Wilder is the title of an album by Julian Cope.	Linda Noble
Diva And Wilder	Curt Smith (Tears For Fears)		joie
Diva Muffin	Frank Zappa	First rule: Never name your kid after a pastry (it sounds like Janet's boob.)	hamp
Diva Thin Muffin Pigeen Zappa	Frank Zappa	He said he chose the name Diva because she was crying louder than all the other babies at the hospital. (No idea about the rest of the name.)	Coolio
Dixie Dot and Bibi Belle	Anna Ryder Richardson	Very nice..for circus performers. You can just picture them in an act with dancing bears.	Mars
Dixie Dot and Bibi Belle	Anna Ryder Richardson	All I can say is she must have been high on gas and air to give them THOSE names! MEAN	Rowan
Django	Dave Stewart and Siobhan Fahey	Named for Django Reinhardt a famous European jazz guitarist of the 1920's and 30's. Django was of gypsy origins and played astounding Jazz riffs. he would have been more famous had WWII not intervened. He is legendary among Jazz guitarists especially because his playing hand was deformed in a burning accident.	Jim Kuza
Django	Dave Stewart and Siobhan Fahey		Angelina
Django Walker	Jerry Jeff Walker		jen
Do Ray Me	Justin Hayward (Lead Singer Moody Blues)	She is named for the musical score.	anne Boris
Dodd	Bobby Darin	I always felt he should have reversed the name to Darin Dodd. The name always puts me in mind of Ken Dodd (Liverpool comedian) and his nickname 'Doddy'.	pickle*
Dodd Mitchell	Bobby Darin & Sandra Dee (R.I.P. both)	I read in one place that Dodd still uses his father's birth name of Cossotto (Bobby was born Walden Robert Cossotto). If so, then Dodd Darin sounds even more odd & not very roll-off-the-tongue.	Eric Andrews
Dog	Sky Saxon	Ohhhhh...Kaaaay!	Eric Andrews
Domani, Deyjah,King, and Messiah	T.I	Domani, King, and Messiah are the boys as you might know and Deyjah is the girl. So that is 3 boys and 1 girl. To those that do not know Ya'Majesty isn't a girl. Deyjah is the only girl.	Fact Straightner
Domani, Messiah, Deyjah, King	T.I.	These are T.I. kids name 3 little boys and 1 girl.	ashley

Doremi	Justin Hayward	I would hate to be called such a 'silly' name, people will comment on it whenever she is asked her name - what a drag	Ocean
Doremi	Justin Hayward	Just like the scale names..."doe, a deer, a female deer..."	Pamela
Doremi	Justin Hayward	The name of the show which had the character Doremy was "Are You Being Served" which can be seen currently in the US. The character and name, spelled Doremy on the show, can be seen sometimes at the end of the show during the credits. I just saw if for the first time myself in January 2008.	Denise
Doremi Celeste	Justin Hayward	You can't get more musical, can you? And I wonder if choosing Celeste as a middle name has anything to do with 'blue'?	Jessica Aguilera
Doremi Celeste	Justin Hayward	Just to correct Dee, the name on her birth certificate is not Marianne Celeste, it is Doremi Celeste (I used to work at the Family Records Office in London). Justin and his wife chose the name from an actress in a 70s sitcom but changed the spelling from Doremy to Doremi. It is not a nickname, it is her name.	Jessica
Doremi Celeste	Justin Hayward	I looked up the name Celeste on a baby name site and it's (Latin) Celestial, heavenly; From the Sky. It's a very regal name for a child. :)	Celeste
Doremi Celeste Hayward	Justin Hayward	Hey! What's wrong Celeste for a middle name?	Celeste
Draven	Chester Bennington	I like this name! Reminds me of Dracula for some odd reason.	Alyssa
Draven	Chester Bennington (Linkin Park)	Named after Eric Draven (the character played by the late Brandon Lee in the movie "The Crow").	Laura
Draven	Chester Benninton	That's Chester Bennington from Linkin Park. Draven's an odd name, but cool. If he's anything like his dad, he's set for life. ^_^	HybridObsession
Draven Sebastian	Chester Bennington (& Samantha)	Draven= Eric Draven (the Crow) Sebastian= Johann Sebastian Bach (german Componist)	Kathi
Draven Sebastian	Chester Bennington		Claw
Draven Sebastian Bennington	Chester Charles Bennington	Chaz got a really cute child!!!	Denise
Draven Sebastion Bennington	Chester Bennington	That is the cutest name i have ever heard! I love names for boys like dominic, Jessi but draven is my favorite and i have never heard it before.I LOVE chester bennington anyway but thats not why.	Alyssa
Draven Sebastion Bennington	Chester Bennington (Linkin Park vocalist)	How cute is that name, Li'l Dre! Chester's kid is so cute, takes after his dad! Has a kool ring to it, Draven Bennington......	lpchick
Dream	Ginuwine	Kind of a cool name, but it'd get old fast.	Amber
Dream	Ginuwine	Actually my 1 year old daughters middle name is Dream, and I never heard of anyone else with this name until now. WOW!	Trudy
Dream	Ginuwine/Sole	Dream is a very beautiful and unique name. You never heard of a child with such a name. I think that Sole and Ginuwine did right by naming their child Dream because that's probably what she was to them: A "Dream" come true!!	Keria-J
Dream	Ginuwine	It's a pretty name, but I WOULD NOT name my child Dream.	Ari
Dream	Ginuwine	Ginuwine and his girlfriend Sole gave birth to a second little girl November 1st. I like the name but not crazy about it. It's too dry.	Naquita
Dream	Giunwine	That is a beautiful name. It's different and unique.	Jhaelyn
Dream & Story	Ginuwine & Sole	I truly believe that I have never heard such a most beautiful name in my life. "Dream" a name like that you should cherish. Elgin and Sole had a dream come true. Okay, Story, um, what can I say. Very unique and different. I actually like it.	Ciera
Dream and Story	Ginuwine	I think that these are very unique names. I am going to name my child dream if its a girl. Just love, love, love the names.	Sierra Jenkins
Dream and Story	Ginuwine and Sole Lumpkin	I wish I had though to name my child that first. Just like their parents these little girls represent orginality. Love them.	shamarie
Dream And Story Lumpkin	Ginuwine And Sole	Sole is a rapper and Ginuwine is a male singer.	cool chick
Dukey	Belinda Carlisle	When you say this name out loud, you think of going to the bathroom. She actually got this name because of his Grandfather James Duke Mason and her step-father, Duke Kurczeski. But still could they have thought of a better name than this?	Penny
Duncan Zowie Heywood Jones	David Bowie	NOT Duncan Zowie Bowie	Liz Racz
Dusti	Vanilla Ice	First off, the name is great. However, "Vanilla" spells it wrong; he spells it with an 'i', or at least that is what I saw on the tattoo. I think Dusty is a great name, since of course that's my name. And yes, I'm a girl, And no, it's not short for anything.	Dusty
Dusty Rain	Vanilla Ice	This is the real name.	Becky
Dusty Rain	Vanilla Ice (Rob Van Winkle)	Her name is Dusty Rain and she looks exactly like her dad. I know this for a fact I am close friends with Rob and his other daughter is Keali Breeze which is beautiful. I love both names	Lauren
Dusty Rain	Vanilla Ice	Just to correct Aisha, who tried to prove someone else wrong, it IS Dusty Rain, not Dusty Rose, as you said. So there.	Becky
Dusty Rain	Vanilla Ice	Enough said!	Luke
Dusty Rose	Vanilla Ice	I'd just like to correct Luke by saying that her name is Dusty ROSE not Dusty Rain.	Aisha
Dweezil	Frank Zappa	Dweezil was named after his mother's pinky-toe	Cat
Dweezil	Frank Zappa	Apparently his real name is Ian Donald Calvin Euclid Zappa. Still weird, but as his dad said, "Consider for a moment any beauty in the name Ralph." 'Nuff said.	Marley
Dweezil Zappa	Frank Zappa	I would like to yell at "nutcase" for his/her comment on this name. How does naming your child something other than mainstream make you a twisted psycho? His other kids are named Ahmet, Moon Unit, and Diva. Who are you to judge whether these names are good or not? They're probably far more talented than you will EVER be. So just crawl back into your hole and let us ignore you.	jen s
Dweezle Zappa	Frank Zappa	WTF Frank Zappa is one twisted psycho! He named his other kids Diva and Moon for crying out loud!	nutcase
Dylan	Michael McDonald	Not a "weird" name, but I can guess why he chose it.	KL Fan
Dylan Blue	Brandon Boyd (Incubus)	This is actually Brandon's stepdaughter, but I think it's really cute. If you've ever seen her, then you'll agree that she suits the name.	bella-fontayne
Dylan Jagger Lee	Tommy Lee & Pamela Anderson		Miss MT
Dylan Rae	Wayne Hussey (The Mission)	Not sure where the idea for calling his daughter Dylan came from, but the "Rae" was from his first wife's Kelly's father Ray, who passed away just before Dylan was born.	H-J
Dylan Rae Hussey	Wayne Hussey	She was not named after Bob Dylan, Wayne dislikes Bob Dylan as well as her mother. Her first name came from a dream.	Penelope
Dylan Rae Hussey	Wayne Hussey	Rae came from a movie her mom liked. Dylan came from a dream that she had while she was pregnant with her.	Dylan
Dylan Rae Hussey	Wayne Hussey	I think I know where Wayne got the idea of naming his daughter Dylan. It came from Bob Dylan, of course. I still think Dylan is a better name for a boy than a girl, but it's a much better name for a girl than Bob.	Aaerni
Dylan Rae Hussey	Wayne Hussey	Actually Kelly's father was named Don, not Rae.	Smorgasbord
Dylan River	Joe Nichols		sundog
Dyon	Xzibit	He had this child with a Dutch girl. He was born April, 2005.	Klazzz
