Good thing Sarah and Ashwin (as well as most other celebs) don't care whether we like what they name their children. Congrats on the birth of a healthy baby girl, whether her name is spelled Taaja/Taa-Jah/Taja or Tootsie. No matter what her name is, you must admit it beats "Apple"(Paltrow) Martin by a mile. Not to mention Nick Cage who named his son after Superman's 'birth' name,(sorry I'm not a big fan so I don't know the planet Superman was from originally ). It seems that unusual (no, bizarre is more like it) celeb baby names has become the norm and the more bizarre the better. So Sarah's baby has a name that is less freaky than most. Whomever it was that said they could do without Summer as a middle name? ROTFL... that name is downright boring in comparison.
Congrats to the lovely chanteuse and her family on their new addition, no matter what the name ends up to be.

I love the name, but I'm not too fond of the spelling.

Anyway, congrats to the happy family!

I am still confused about the spelling and the pronunciation. None of the info given is clear to me. Is it pronounced Tay-jah? or Tah-Jah? or what?

Sarah's note: Taa-Jah is what the publicist has released as the spelling of the name. It's said with 2 long 'a' sounds, no 'y' sounds. If you know how to pronounce 'Taj Mahal', it's the same, just with an 'a' on the end.

never heard of the name taja and i am an indian from india. taja (pronounced ta-jaa) in hindi means 'fresh'. but it is never used as a name. as a celebrity you can get away with creative uses of a word. so i guess her name means fresh summer ?

Taja is a pretty name. If it went with my and hubby's last name, I would consider it for my own future daughter.

I could do without Summer as a middle name but Taja is really cute!
