George and Amal Clooney didn't want celebrity names for their children. 

This week, while at the Venice Film Festival, the 56 year old actor confessed he didn’t want ‘dumb names’ for twins Ella and Alexander, who were born in June. ‘We didn’t want to give them one of those ridiculous Hollywood names that don’t mean anything.’  he said,  adding his son and daughter ‘already have enough difficulty bearing the weight of their celebrity.’

George and Amal, who are set to celebrate their third wedding anniversary this month, have recently pledged to open a school for refugees.
