Hollywood never seems to stop growing! In 2015, Justin Timberlake and Jessica Biel became parents for the first time, Jude Law welcomed his fifth child and Kelly Clarkson announced her second pregnancy.

While we always look forward to seeing adorable photos of their little ones, we have to admit that discovering celebrity baby names is just as exciting. However, not all baby names were created equally.

2015 gave way to some pretty wacky baby names and we’ve rounded them all up in the slideshow below.

Weirdest Celebrity Baby Names Of 2015

Liv Tyler welcomed her second child (but first with boyfriend David Gardner) in February and went for a nautical name. While Sailor might be a cute nickname, we think it sounds like an odd choice for a first name. However, the moniker is surprisingly catching on among celebs! In November, former “Hills” star Kristin Cavallari gave birth to her daughter Saylor James Cutler and Bristol Palin revealed that she’ll be naming her baby girl Sailor when she arrives in December.

Blues Anthony Paré Kastner(02 of06)

This name shouldn’t surprise us, considering the fact that Beyoncé and Jay-Z famously named their daughter Blue Ivy in 2012. However, the name Blues is still an oddity. “Mad Men” alum Jessica Paré and boyfriend John Kastner chose this name for their son when he was born in March. Considering that Kastner is a musician, it’s likely the choice of moniker has personal meaning, but the couple has not yet revealed their reasoning. (credit:Larry Busacca via Getty Images)

Zooey Deschanel has always been known for her quirkiness, so we really aren’t that surprised she named her daughter Elsie Otter. While we love that the “New Girl” star stuck to her style with the name choice, we think the moniker almost sounds like a cartoon character. Deschanel welcomed her daughter with husband Jacob Pechenik in August. (credit:Greg Allen/Invision/AP)

Ashlee Simpson and husband Evan Ross followed the last names as first names trend to name their baby girl, but we’re not sure if it really works. Gaining inspiration from Rolling Stones frontman Mick Jagger, the couple named their daughter Jagger Snow. Interestingly, the odd choice isn’t limited to the Ross family. Justin Bieber’s manager Scooter Braun and his wife Yael Cohen welcomed a son in February and named him Jagger Joseph. (credit:Jordan Strauss/Invision/AP)
Sistine Sabella James(05 of06)

Kevin James has four kids with his wife Steffiana de la Cruz. In January, the couple welcomed their youngest daughter and named her Sistine. While the moniker has a beautiful sound and harkens images of the Sistine Chapel, we’re not sure any nicknames really work with this pick, besides Sis. Interestingly, Sylvester Stallone also named one of his daughters Sistine back in 1998. (credit:Evan Agostini/Invision/AP)

Jeff Goldblum became a first-time father this year at the age of 62. The “Jurassic Park” star and his wife Emilie Livingston Goldblum welcomed their baby boy, Charlie Ocean, on Independence Day. While nature baby names are a big trend in Hollywood, Ocean is certainly a more unusual choice. During an appearance on “Conan,” host Conan O’Brien noted, “Ocean, that's a little out there.”Goldblum then responded, saying, “It is. But is it too out there? I love the ocean.” (credit:Jordan Strauss/Invision/AP)

While these baby names are certainly quirky, 2014 still wins for Year of the Weirdest Celebrity Baby Names. Last year we were introduced to Pete Wentz’s son Saint Laszlo, Lil' Kim’s daughter Royal Reign and Soleil Moon Frye’s son Lyric Sonny Roads.

Mila Kunis and Ashton Kutcher also welcomed their first child, Wyatt Isabelle Kutcher, and their baby name announcement left us all scratching our heads. Clearly, celebrities are looking far and wide for inspiration when it comes to naming their kids – no matter how odd they may seem!

With so many celebrities currently expecting, we can’t help but wonder what 2016 has in store.
