Israel is a name. Moxie is not. Apple is not. Those are objects. I don't really care what people name their kids, but they should know full well that their child is likely to be teased. It's hard enough being a kid.

Most names were objects or actions before they became names. The level of teasing a kid endures will be more infinitely more dependent on the nature of the kid than the uniqueness of his name.

Apple is a name, believe it or not. Paltrow is hardly the first to name her kid that.
