The Weirdest Names Celebrities Gave Their Kids

Knox is a strong, stately name with Old English and Scottish origins meaning “round hill.” Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt reportedly chose it as a nod to Brad’s grandfather, Hal Knox Hillhouse. Its short, punchy sound pairs well with the family’s preference for meaningful, globally influenced names.

Knox has grown up traveling the world with his famous family, experiencing a blend of cultures, languages, and humanitarian work. He keeps a low public profile but has been seen accompanying his siblings to events. With parents immersed in acting and activism, he may explore film, global outreach, or something uniquely his own.
