Feeling Frustrated
Hearing Neil Diamond's "Shiloh"
Shiloh: Girls Gone 'Oxford English Dictionary'
KoolerMoeDee: shiloh is forever.
LowCultureGuru: well lookie here A Socialite's Life
LowCultureGuru: brad pitt named her after a bar? i figured he'd go for an architect.
KoolerMoeDee: well it's only one possibility...
POSSIBLE ORIGINS OF THE NAME SHILOH:
Shiloh, Battle of:What: A great and bloody battle of the Civil War that took place in April 1862 in southwestern Tennessee and inwhich over 10,000 soldiers were killed on both sides. Though the outcome is disputed, a general consensus places the victory on the side of the Union army.
Brangelina Significance: Presumably, both Brad and Angelina are opposed to slavery in the U.S. Also, Angelina is known to regret being born too late to be personally responsible for teaching Frederick Douglass to read.

'Shiloh' by Phyllis Reynolds Naylor
What: A 1992 Newbury Award winning young adult fiction novel, the book follows an 11 year old boy’s moral awakening as he struggles to protect the mistreated beagle Shiloh. Sadly, the boy’s moral victory is dampened by the dog’s death at the end of the novel.
Brangelina Significance: Feeling guilty over so quickly bombarding her former only child with two sisters and a Braddy, Angelina decided to let four year old son Maddox name the child.

‘Shilo,’ by Neil Diamond
What: First appearing on Diamond’s bizarre 1968 album ‘Velvet Gloves and Spit,’ ‘Shilo’ is a folksy ode to an imaginary friend. Notable lines: “Papa says he'd love to be with you/If he had the time/ So you turn to the only friend you can find/ There in your mind…Shilo, when I was young/ I used to call your name/ When no one else would come/ Shilo, you always came.”
Brangelina Significance: As a final public insult to her estranged father John Voight, Angelina names her only biological daughter after the musical manifestation of psychological pain incurred by absent parenting.

Shylock
What: Shylock is the stereotypical Jewish money lender who demands a pound of flesh as the cost of a forfeited debt in Shakespeare’s most anti-Semitic play, ‘The Merchant of Venice.’ He is forced to give up his fortune and renounce Judaism for Christianity at the end of the play.
Brangelina Significance: Wishing to give their child a literary moniker but unwilling to settle for unfashionably boring Shakespearean names such as Cassandra, Juliet and Lady MacBeth, Brad and Angie decided to transform the reputation of this unpopular character by causing the masses to associate him with the most beautiful and virtuous baby in the world…minus the –ck.

Angelina probably picked Shiloh. It's pretty butch. Angelina really likes women, probably prefers them and will probabably dump Brad for one.
Axl Rose and Erin Everly were going to name their miscarried baby Shiloh William if it were a boy and Willow Amelia if it were a girl. I only know of male Shilohs. This is going to be a problem for the kid if she is not inclined towards tomboyism and eventual lesbionism. Her other names sound kind of boyish too if I recall correctly. -
Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie are wonderful parents. They may not last as a couple for very long, but they both seem to be protective, intelligent, generous, and caring parents. Ya'll need to shut the hell up. The two sexiest people alive just produced offspring quit being jealous haters! If anything they're doing mankind yet another favor by passing on fabulous genetics.
p.s.-I do kinda feel hard for Zahara though, seems like she's gonna be just the typical ignored middle child... -
shilo, shilo, shilo my heart goes out to you. you're parents are wackoes!!!!

Sherry, well you better stop feeling for Jen, because she said and I quote "That I am tired of this pity party."

Okay, so she was known to everyone growing up as "Angie Voight."Everyone knows you are a lucky lady, with good looks and money. Your father had something to do with your looks and your money and getting your foot in the door in Hollywood. Don't be deluded enough to forget all your dad has done for you.
Anyway, I lost my admiration for you when you starting trashing out your father, the famous Jon Voight. I can see the hurt in his eyes when he is asked about you. It seems to me that you actually enjoy hurting him, hurling insults, slandering him in public, telling him off and banning him from his rightful grandchildren. It's your children who are losing out on knowing their grandfather.
Do you even realize that the general public LOVE Jon Voight? Do you realize the negative message you are sending to your children? They will grow up and they will watch his movies and they will ask you why they never got to know their own grandfather.
Oh, we know, you're "MAD" at your dad because some years ago he said that you might need some psychological help. Grow up, Angie baby, he was concerned about you. Reconcile with your father.
Remember that you are denying your children the love of their grandfather.
How foolish you have been to have hurt your father so much. Since you have everything in the world anyone could possibly have, there is one thing you do not have. You do not have a grandfather for your children.
Good luck with your conscience when your father drops dead. You will regret every mean thing you have been saying. In my opinion, Angie, with the ugly things you have done to your wonderful wise old father, you Angie, are a fool.
