Shiloh Pitt

Shiloh Pitt, sounds like a hard fruit. I'm not talking about the New York basketball player, 6’2” soph Shiloh Pitt. It's also the name of Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie's baby girl!

I wonder if either of those named Shiloh Pitt will ever make it to the real, the genuine Shiloh.

The newsreader pronounced the name a little differently, she read it sounding like 'Shy-low' :P which I thought was funny.

That's how it's pronounced in America.

I just popped on your blogg out of luck. My name is Shiloh Swanson. I am American. I hold great admiration for the holder of the scepter of Judah. And I wonder how do you pernounce Shiloh correctly. Like I said I don't know I am only American. If only you would be so kind to amuse me muse?

proper Hebrew pronunciation of Shiloh in its original Hebrew is:
shee' loh
long e, long o
first syllable slightly emphasized

The true explanation is that Brad and Jolie are two Civil War buffs. Shiloh was one of the bloodiest battles of the American Civil War. It is a great honor to be named after it.

rather gruesome
though suits the star of "Legends of the Fall"

Shiloh Pitt?

I wonder how long it will take for the kids to start calling her Pile o' Sh*t.
