The year 2006 was filled with celebrity babies, many with unusual names. Shiloh of the Jolie-Pitt clan, Moses of Paltrow-Martin, Grier of Shields-Henchy, Kingston of Stefani-Rossdale, and Ruby Sweetheart of Maguire-Meyer were included in the group, making it essential Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes dig deep for their own unique baby name.
Upon the birth of Suri, Cruise's camp released a statement that included the details of the child's name. In addition to mentioning the red rose connection, the announcement also noted Suri had a Hebrew meaning as well: "princess." It was later explained by a Hebrew linguistics expert that Suri itself isn't an official Hebrew name, but rather a nickname for "Sarah," which does officially mean "princess" in the Hebrew culture.
Switching to an entirely different mode and a different language, if you look up the word "suri" in a Japanese dictionary, you'll find the definition to be a pickpocket, a thief who sneakily steals items right from your purses and pants. Perhaps Cruise and Holmes weren't up on their Japanese vocabulary? And they definitely weren't up on their beetle knowledge...
