George and Amal Clooney recently welcomed a set of twins that they have named Alexander and Ella – fairly normal baby names in the Hollywood realm!
The A-Lister has recently spoken out about silly Hollywood names and how he never considered naming his children anything but traditional names. “[We] didn’t want to give them one of those ridiculous Hollywood names that don’t mean anything. They’ll already have enough difficulty bearing the weight of their celebrity,” he told “Paris Match.”
“We figured these kids are going to be looked at a lot and watched and [have their] every move sort of judged, and we wanted them to at least have a break with the names,” he previously told “Entertainment Tonight” in an interview. “So we looked for some sort of normal names. We didn’t have any great inspiration. It wasn’t Alexander the Great and Ella Fitzgerald.”
He also opened a bit about his children, saying how they differed in personality. “They start out with a personality right off the bat. [Alexander] is a thug already. He’s a moose! Literally, he just sits and he eats,” he said.
On the other hand, Ella is “very elegant and all eyes.”
“She looks like Amal, thank God,” George joked.
Congratulations to the happy family!
