why did brad and angelina name there baby Shiloh?

Question

i'm just now knwing that.
i don't mean to be mean or anything but isn't that a name of a dog in a t.v. show or movie?

oh yeah book...
celebrities do have weird names...who the hell would name a kid apple?
thanks for mensioning that Mrs. #14

Answer 1

Because it means"beautiful unexpected gift"in some language...and because its a really pretty name!!

Answer 2

It's a book and a movie I think. It's a dog yeah. I hate all the celebrities names!!! ((With only a FEW exceptions)) I mean, Apple? Phinnius?? Gosh people, don't they know how much those kids will be made fun of.

Thanks. Apple is a totally weird name, unique most definitely. Julia Roberts' twin babies, the boy Phinnius and then she had a girl. The girl's name isn't that bad. I think it's kinda cute. Her name is Hazel.

Answer 3

Evidently they chose the name Shiloh because it held some special meaning for them. I know that it is historic from the Civil War, a town in Tennessee. I read somewhere the meaning of the word, but cannot remember. Why don't you google it and see what you will find? Speaking of unusual names, how about Rumor and Apple?

Answer 4

I really like the name Shiloh. It's different than all the names I've heard before..

Answer 5

Ugh, it's such a horrible name lol, but if that's what they want then I could really give a crap. Shiloh. Too close to "siloh"...isn't that like a trough, the thing pigs eat out of?
Apple is worse =D
the poor kid.

Answer 6

It's the name of a dog in a book dear.

I think celebs always try to pick really "original" names for their kids... no idea why? To make them seem different and special?

Answer 7

Maybe they're Neil Diamond fans!

SHILO
Written by Neil Diamond
Young child with dreams
Dream ev'ry dream on your own
When children play
seems like you end up alone

Papa says he'd love to be with you
If he had the time
So you turn on the only friend you can find
There in your mind

Shilo, when I was young
I used to call you name
When no one else would come
Shilo, you always came
And we'd play

Young girl with fire
Something said she understood
I wanted to fly
She made me feel like I could

Held my hand out, and I let her take me
Blind as a child
All I saw was the way that she made me smile
She made me smile

Shilo, when I was young
I used to call you name
When no one else would come
Shilo, you always came
And you'd stay

Had a dream, and it filled me with wonder
She had other plans
"Got to go, and I know that you'll understand"
I understand

Shilo, when I was young
I used to call you name
When no one else would come
Shilo, you always came
Come today


(Good reason to call a little girl Shilo, no matter how you spell it!)
I think its a Namibian name though if you want to the know the truth!

Answer 8

the same reason a lot of celebs give their children strange names, attention. it's actually quite cruel and twisted when you think about it, the fact that they are willing to let their children suffer abuse and bullying just so they can get a few headlines to further their career.

Answer 9

i don't think of it really is any of the accepted public's business enterprise. would you your self opt for to be contained in the accepted public eye each and each of the time? highly your own life? supply the Pitts time. i do not extremely care in the adventure that they have yet another toddler.

Answer 10

probably just to be original. in hollywood its like a MUST to name your kid something completley ridiculous...its kinda cute, but its a freakin dogs name, to me it would be like calling my child buster or harley or bailey or something...it seems to work though :S!!!
