The woman named “Judith” above has commented on other websites regarding the name “Tatum,” and she always says the same thing about it. Um, creepy. What I want to know is…why the hatred toward that name? It’s a darling name for a little girl, both strong and girly without prissiness. Plus, it means “cheerful bringer of joy.” Love that name.

Congrats to Nikki & partner great name choice..I have a daughter called Tatum Paige, i have noticed a few people disliking it which is their opinion everyone we know loves the name Tatum it is different but not over the top personally we didn’t even think of Tatum O’neil considering their are lots of other people who are called the same name as someone else who has had a rough life etc. Everyone is their own person with their own personality & the meaning of Tatum means brings joy which i hope Nikki’s Tatum brings as much joy as my Tatum has..

I have to agree about Honor – reminds me too much of ‘honor and obey’ or something! Don’t hate it, but personally not a fan – although as a sideline, compared to Petal Blossom Rainbow, Jamie Oliver’s new baby girl, or new announcement about Bachelor couple’s baby girl Blakesley Sutter (think Honor Marie flows well, first and middle names anyhow, even if a few ‘r’s in her whole name), it definitely could be worse!!, IMHO. Of course, as long as they like it but since everyone else is commenting….!

“the one that really hasnt after all this time is Honor!”

Me too! I don’t think it’s ugly, it just sounds odd. It doesn’t sound like a name.

I agree with Daisy! Demi Moore’s also kept her first husband’s last name when they divorced, as do plenty of other women (both celebs and non-celebs). It’s really not that unusual (and when you think about it, most widows keep their late husbands’ surnames, and nobody ever bats an eye about that.)!

I only vaguely know who she is but I like the name Tatum.

As for her surname, Jack White kept his ex-wife’s name (him being Jack Gillis before marriage) And now his new wife and children have his ex’s surname. So really, her keeping her ex-husbands name shouldn’t be a proble.

I find it really odd that Nikki kept her ex’s last name. I like Tatum Ella its a very nice name.

I don’t think only celebrities have the right to keep their husband’s last name after a divorce. Many women from a variety of professions may opt to keep their husband’s name for professional purposes.

Sam and Freyas mom

I totally understand. I don’t think any of us were being cruel and I thought giving an opinion on the babies name was standard.

Ilona*–I love the name Fabian, it sounds very intellectual.I like Gideon too but it reminds me too much of Gideon Yago.
