Americans are *not* the only ones who use those type of names.
If one one used those type of names it would be pretty boring.
I happen to love these and would use them regardless:
Unisex / Opposite Gender Names
Virtue Names
Pretentious last names
Yuppie names
Place Names
Titles - well sort of
Names taken from popular culture
Celebrity Used Names - does NOT mean you "named" them after anyone unless the person says so. You can just like a name to like it. I'd name my child Harlow & Shiloh but not because of a celebrity or celeb kid. This is my biggest pet peeve who cares if they are named after a celeb or not? Does it really matter to anyone if they are or aren't. I mean this in general not directly at you personally. I just had to say something about it.
Sorry I had to rant I really cannot stand when people assume because it's the name of a celeb then it's automatically named after them.
