the story behind the names of Brangelina’s twins

Knox Leon Jolie-Pitt and Vivienne Marcheline Jolie-Pitt have the loveliest celebrity baby names ever! Knox Leon sounds so strong and manly while Vivienne Marcheline is so dainty and feminine =) The story behind Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt’s twin names is this:

Vivienne is the French form of Vivian — to reflects her place of birth (Nice, France). Her middle name was chosen to remember her late maternal grandmother, Marcheline Bertrand who died of ovarian cancer.

Knox was the middle name of Brad Pitt’s maternal grandfather, Hal Knox Hillhouse. Leon is the name of Angelina Jolie’s great-great grandfather.

And if you want to make cash off the lovely twins online, it’s too late — Brad and Angelina’s attorneys at Lavely & Singer have bought all domain name combinations of the twins’ names last Saturday. Here are all of the ones taken so far:
