Mariah Carey and her husband Nick Cannon have finally revealed the names of their twins who were born in Los Angeles on Saturday.
Their son is named Moroccan Scott Cannon. Scott is Nick’s middle name, as well as his grandmother’s maiden name.
The top tier of Mariah’s New York City apartment is called the Moroccan Room, because of the Moroccan-inspired decor. It’s also the place where Nick proposed to his wife, overlooking Manhattan!
Their daughter’s name is Monroe Cannon. Mariah's rep says she does not have a middle name because Mariah herself does not have one. Monroe was named after Marilyn Monroe, who has been an inspiration to Mariah her whole life.
In fact, Mariah purchased the Hollywood icon’s white piano from Christie's auction house and it is in Mariah’s will that the piano will one day go to the Smithsonian.
Mariah’s rep, Cindi Berger, tells CNN, “It has been a long, emotional journey for this family, and I couldn’t be happier for all of them.”
im excited for them but those names are terrible, I really thought they were going to name dem babies, Michael and Michelle
or Marisah and Marion something similar to mariah's name.
These names are some of the worst celeb names forreal, they seem like names you give a dog or monkey.
Moroccan is really corny. Why would you name your child after the room you banged in?? Monroe is an okay name, but I'm not big on the last-name-as-first-name thing. I bet Mariah thought it was cute that she and the kids have the same initials.
I worship Mariah but I make fun of her too. I'm glad they're healthy...can't wait to see pics.
OMG!
Jeez. I guess I should name my twin children Pinto and Motel 6, since I probably conceived them in the back of a car and at a sleazy dive respectively.
But why Monroe for the girl's name? I understand Mariah is enamored over Marilyn Monroe, but why not Norma Jean instead? That was her real name, it pays respectful homage to her idol, and it won't leave scars on her daughter growing up for having oddball parents.
What a relief! Honestly, I thought she was going to end up naming them Butterfly and Honey Bee.
^ ROFLMAO!!!!! I almost fell off my chair at work reading that! TOO FUNNY!!! I'm happy for Mariah and Nick! They deserve to be happy and enjoy the gift of parenthood.
