Mariah names her twins

Oh, this is as predictably wacky as everyone expected – Mariah Carey and Nick Cannon have named their new twin babies, and the names are leaving people scratching their heads.  They’ve named the girl Monroe, which I suppose isn’t all that bad, since Mariah has long been known to admire Marilyn Monroe, and Monroe Cannon does have a bit of a quirky ring to it.

But the boy… his name is Moroccan.  Moroccan Cannon.  Go ahead, I’ll wait while you say it out loud and let it sink in.  So far there’s been no explanation as to what this name is about – it has only been said that his middle name is Scott, which is not only Nick’s middle name, but also his grandmother’s middle name.  Let’s hope he ends up using his middle name, because Scott Cannon sounds pretty good to me.
