After naming her daughter Apple, Gwyneth Paltrow and hubby Chris Martin are said to be planning to give their new son an even worse name.
Let's see, we have the father's name: Chris Martin. (Cool.) Grandfather's name: Bruce Paltrow. (Also coolish.) Gwyneth's choice: Mortimer. (So not cool.)
According to PageSix, who sourced it to rossmathews.net (meaning this is Class B gossip), Gwyneth is saying that pregnancy is making her crazy she wants to name her second child after her godfather Steven Spielberg, who she affectionately refers to as "Uncle Morty".
She won't be naming the kid "Steven", as that would look like she's sucking up to the most successful movie director of all times. Oh, no. The kid will be called Mortimer.
What's that sound you hear? Why it's the pitter-patter of little fists as British boys pummel poor little Mortimer's ass - daily - in juuuuust about ten years time. Good luck, Mort!
