42-year-old Uma Thurman gave birth to her baby girl back in July, but she and her billionaire boyfriend Arpad Busson kept her name a secret. And for good reason, because it’s really fucking stupid. The NY Daily News says:
“I would like to announce Uma and Arki’s daughter’s name for the first time officially: Rosalind Arusha Arkadina Altalune Florence Thurman-Busson, better known to family and friends as Luna,” the actress’s rep Gabrielle Kachman [said].
Asked the meaning behind the perplexingly long name, Kachman simply noted that “Each name has a special reason and meaning to her mother and father.”
Luna is their first child together.
That name sounds like some kind of witch’s incantation. All that’s missing are the words “Incubus Succubus, may the circle be open!” at the end.

More celebrity pretension of the moment: giving your child one name and then picking a middle name–or part of a middle name–to actually address them by.
Phony aristocratic nonsense, like hyphenating the last name. Blech.
