Cosby Show star Lisa Bonet gives her baby an usual name

“The Cosby Show” actress Lisa Bonet gave birth to a son with husband Jason Momoa.  You’ll never guess what they named the baby…..

The name is  Nakoa-Wolf Manakauapo Namakaeha Momoa. I’m not joking. That is the baby’s actual name. No one will ever learn how to pronounce that. I feel sorry for him when he gets older having a name like that.

If you’re wondering where they came up with that name, here is what they said on their Web site.

“He was born on the stormiest, rainy night, so Nakoa (warrior)…Mana(strength/spirit) Kaua (rain) po (dark).  The name was always going to be Nakoa-Wolf, but Jason did the research on first and middle name.  The 2nd middle name, as you know, is Jason’s.”

I still don’t understand what all that means, but I guess it’s their perogative to name their baby whatever they want.
