I find it interesting that if someone is named after a celebrity it's called "celebrity worship" but if one is named after someone in history or books it's acceptable (not that you said that I mean in general).
May I ask why you dislike people using named of celebsthey admire?

I think using the whole name of any celebrity or famous person, even one from history, is a bit tacky. Like Jennifer Aniston Smith or somesuch. But this is coming from the child of a Franklin Delano Roosevelt Randolph Lastname and the grandchild of a George Washington Lastname. ;)
If using just one name of the celebrity/historical figure, it's usually ok, but even better if that person is quite old or already dead. Also, it's better if they aren't the only person with that name (i.e. Cher or Liberace, etc.). It's just safer and classier to name your child Audrey and say you loved Audrey Hepburn than to name her say, Keira, and admit you love Keira Knightley (I don't have anything against her just using her as an example). Within the next couple of years, any random celebrity could start killing puppies or shave their head and hit a car with an umbrella. :b I wouldn't want to be named after them myself, so I'd assume my child wouldn't either.
I'm just rambling now. But that's all I got. lol

I agree
Historical figures, and even "established" showbiz figures like old Hollywood actors seem more consistent. It also depends on the name and on the celebrity. So, while naming a child Victoria after Posh Spice sounds ridiculous to me, since the name is quite well-established it's not so obvious, no one will actually *need* to know about the namesake.
I think that using surnames, even for historical figures, is a bad idea because it's too obvious. I guess Washington and Franklin are partial exceptions because they've become quite widespread.
It also depends on the prestige and reputation of the celebrity, in the case of someone who's still alive.

Thanks, I was just curious, I don't think using an entire name is a good idea either, lol.
