Celebrating Celebrity Baby Birthdays – Cruz Beckham

Happy  Birthday Cruz! You are now 2 years old.

Name: Cruz David Beckham

Birthday: February 20th, 2005

Famous for: Being the third son of soccer star David Beckham and his wife, former Spice Girl Victoria (Adams) Beckham.

Name meaning: Cruz means "cross" in Spanish and is traditionally a female name, while David is obviously after his father.

Adventures:

Cruz has already traveled the world and he is only 2. He was born in Spain, where his dad is currently working, has traveled to England and all over Europe and is about to move to the US. David and Victoria are moving their boys to LA so that David can continue his career with the LA Galaxy soccer team.

Siblings: Older brothers Brooklyn Joseph, almost 8, and Romeo James, 4 1/2.

What they said:

David also added that he would be thrilled if any of his boys followed him into a football career. He says that "nothing can take the place of playing in front of 90,000 fans because nothing can compare with that". Though one thing would; "the only thing that will take its place will be watching one of my sons playing on the big stage."

Future: Will Cruz be an actor or a soccer star? Maybe a singer? Or a totally different career? Who knows, but he sure is a cutie!

oh, and Cruz is traditionally a last name, it’s definitely not a female name. if you check wikipedia there are only two other people with the first name Cruz and they’re both male.

I usually can’t stand the wild names celebrities come up with for their children, but Cruz is one unusual name that I love, though I’m surprised that it’s typically used for a girl-it sounds so masculine to me. Does anyone know if it’s popular in Spain and other Spanish speaking countries?

Anyway, Happy birthday Cruz! I can’t believe how much he looks like Romeo.

Hello! I’m from Barcelona (Spain)! Cruz is not a very typical name here (I never meet someone called Cruz), well my father’s aunt’s name is Cruces, that means “crosses”… But it’s very unusual, more for old women… ^_^U
Cruz is a very common surname (like Penelope Cruz as you know).

My friends from Latin America tell me Cruz is quite a common last name but also a males name. Its rarely used as a female name. Anyhowz, I just love this little guy. I personally think he’s the cutest celebrity baby with his big brown eyes and all those curls.

And David said recently that Cruz is quite smart and mature for his age and he can already speak quite nicely in English and can a few spanish words. So cute!

Happy birthday, Cruz!

Yeah, I thought Cruz was more typically a surname than a female name. It sures is a neat name, though. I like it.
