MUMBAI: Actor Kalki Koechlin and boyfriend Guy Hershberg have become parents to a baby girl. The 36-year-old actor took to Instagram and shared a picture, writing, "Please welcome Sappho", amid speculation around her birth that surfaced late Saturday evening.
The actor seems to have named her daughter after the famous Greek poet, Sappho, whom she also quoted in her Instagram post.
Kalki announced last year that she was expecting her first child with Guy, a classical pianist from Jerusalem.
The "Dev D" actor, in her long Instagram post, said she has respect for all the women, who go through the "intense and gruesome experience of birth."
"Be it vaginal or c section, so many of whom are not given credit or support for the biggest challenges they face, but are expected to do it out of some kind of duty.
Ending her post with a poem by Sappho, widely regarded as one of the greatest lyric poets, Kalki wrote, "Some say an army of horsemen or infantry, A fleet of ships is the fairest thing on the black earth, but I say it's what one loves".
You live with your name all through your life! It is not just something that goes on your birth certificate.
There's no denying the fact that most celebrities love to create a little attention for themselves. More often than not, they're also creative. So what do you get when you have a group of people that crave attention and want to come up with stuff no one has ever thought of before? A whole lot of crazy baby names, that's what!
There are some celebrities who go with good old-fashioned names, but then there's the category of stars who go all out and conjure up names that could be considered downright weird.
Like these.
