Rocker and Rapper Kids' Names

If you call yourself Ludacris or Slash or Flea, chances are you're not gonna name your kid Matthew or Martha or Mike. In fact, rock-and-roll and hip-hop musicians are probably the most imaginative (or outrageous, depending on your point of view) baby namers around, honoring their musical heroes (Thelonious, Lennon, Hendrix), using words as names (Million, Dream, Zeppelin), or just letting their fantasies fly.

Along with Hendrix and Dream, other rocker and rapper kids’ names in the US Top 1000 include Ace, Cash, Everly, Halo, Heaven, Onyx, Roman, and Seven. Some of the most creative choices connected to recent starbabies include Ice, Marvel, Heiress, and Devereaux.

Like many celebrity baby names, the names of Rockstar children are truly imaginative, although there are some more mainstream choices sprinkled about. To wit:
