I enjoyed watching Finola Hughes as Anna Devane on All My Children. Now, she’s added child number three, Sadie Beatrice Young, with husband Russell Young. Soap Opera Weekly reports that the baby, born four months ago, got her middle name thanks to family history: Both parents have relatives with that name, and Hughes also said the baby “looks old-fashioned.”
Harlow Winter Kate Madden, the baby girl born to Nicole Richie and Joel Madden on Jan. 11, 2008, is a plethora of middle name special-ness. First off, she has two middle names, which is a topic that’s been covered here at www.babymiddlename.net, since there are both pros and cons to going the two-name route. Secondly, one of her names is one that’s generally thought of as a nickname: Kate. Cool. And how better to top a cool name like Harlow than with the middle name of Winter? It works. Congrats to the new parents.
It really doesn’t get any better than this: Alabama Gypsy Rose. That’s the name of the baby born Dec. 1 to actress Drea de Matteo and musician Shooter Jennings. This looks at first glance like a case of two middles names, but in this case “Gypsy Rose” is probably intended as a single middle name, a la “Anne Marie.” Congrats to the family.
