Angelina Jolie gave birth to twins babies on Saturday night and their names are Knox Leon and Vivienne Marcheline . According to baby name expert Pamela Redmond Satran, She tells Usmagazine.com, "Vivienne is the French version of the ancient Latin name that means 'alive,'. A common English variation is Vivian, which was the name of Julia Roberts' character in Pretty Woman.Except for Rosie O'Donnell's daughter Vivienne, the name "has not been on the fashion scope in the U.S. Jolie and Pitt's choice of Knox will boost its popularity among new parents, the same way they have with all their other children's names.Knox – Pitt's grandfather's middle name – also "matches" big brothers Maddox and Pax as a name that ends in X". As for middle names, Marcheline was the name of Jolie's mother, who died of cancer last year, while Leon is Jolie's great-great grandfather's name.

Satran praise Jolie and Pitt for the good choice of names for their newborn twin babies. She said "I applaud Brad and Angelina for being truly creative in a way that many other parents – celebrities and the rest of us – claim they want to be but aren't brave or individualistic enough to really achieve".
