QUOTE Katie Holmes can break out the noisemakers: She and Tom Cruise are parents. Cruise and Holmes "joyously welcomed" a baby girl, named Suri, on Tuesday, a statement from the couple's publicist said. Mother and daughter are said to be "doing well." Father is presumably couch-hopping happy. Suri, the statement explained, means "princess" in Hebrew and "red rose" in Persian. She weighed in at 7 pounds, 7 ounces, and was 20 inches long. Cruise, 43, and Holmes, 27, are engaged to be married. Cruise has said the couple would tie the knot sometime after the birth of their child. With the arrival of their first joint production, Cruise and Holmes cede the stork-watch spotlight to Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt, costars in Hollywood's other A-list pregnancy. The Jolie-Pitt baby is expected to drop in May. Cruise foe Brooke Shields, meanwhile, gave birth to her second child, also a girl, and nearly the same size and weight as Cruise's, Tuesday morning in Los Angeles. It was not known which child, Shields' or Cruise's, was born first; Shields, however, beat Cruise to the punch in announcing her birth. Coverage of the Holmes-Cruise baby centered in recent weeks on the Scientology custom of the so-called silent birth. (Both Cruise and Holmes are Scientologists.) Reports said Holmes had been fitted with a pacifier to help her hold her tongue, as it were, during labor. If such coverage seemed to pry, then Cruise himself kicked the door open in an interview last week with ABC's Primetime. He denied Holmes had a pacifier, and maintained that Holmes or any other woman in birth "makes as much noise [as they want]." In the last year, Cruise, giving voice to one of Scientology's talking points, frequently denounced prescription drugs used to treat conditions such as postpartum depression. But to Primetime's Diane Sawyer, he said that the in-labor Holmes would be administered pain-numbing anesthesia upon request. ("If she needs an epidural, she's gonna get her epidural.") Cruise, the superstar actor, and Holmes, the former Dawson's Creek ingenue, became an item almost exactly one year ago. They went from red-carpet appearances to Eiffel Tower proposal in just two months. Last October, they announced Holmes' pregnancy. Virtually every step of the way, cameras were there to document the couple kissing, cuddling and, in the case of Cruise, jumping on Oprah Winfrey's couch. Cruise has two older children, a son and a daughter, both of whom he adopted with ex-wife Nicole Kidman. Holmes is a first-time mother. suri? thats kinda cute. |

I saw this in the marquee thing that goes by on E! while I was watching the True Hollywood Story of Hugh Hefner.
How is that even pronounced? Soo-ree? Sir-ee? Then again, I didn't exactly expect them to name her something normal. |

Suri? That sounds like a nice name to me, but not that common, I think.
Congratulations to them. |

QUOTE In the shocker of all shockers, Tom Cruise isn't the linguistic expert he claims to be. Despite telling everybody Suri means "princess" in Hebrew, Hebrew linguists have confirmed that it doesn't.
Suri has only two meanings - one is a person from Syria and the other "go away" when addressed to a female. Hebrew expert Jonathan Went says, "I think it's fair to say they have made a mistake here. There are variations of the way the Hebrew name for princess is spelt but I have never seen it this way." Suri can also be translated into a Hindi boy's name, and it also means "pointy nose" in some Indian dialects and "pickpocket" in Japanese. The crazy bastard named his daughter "pointy nosed pickpocket." I take back whatever I said about Tom Cruise, because only a genius of maniacal proportions could come up with that. I just wonder how he's gonna top it. He's gonna have to name his next kid "degenerate puppy killer" or something. |

i'm guessing it's more than just a simple mistake. it's a sign of tom cruise's complete lunacy. yet another sign, i mean. the man is clearly friggin insane beyond any normal degree.
just blame scientology. the aliems did it to him. |

I think Katie's Catholic, Tom's scientologist (um, ok), while they give their baby a Hebrew name.
Welcome to Hollywood! |

no. katie (who will soon be going by "kate cruise" as he demanded of her) converted to scientology.
so. basically. they stole her brain. and replaced with some sort of...stupid machine. |
