Did you know that all Pixar films include a list of Production Babies in the credits? I didn’t either, until Nancy Friedman filled me in. (Thanks!)
According to The Globe and Mail, Production Babies are those born to anyone at Pixar “in the year before [a] film comes out.” For instance, Wall-E (2008) includes a list of 58 babies:
| Alexander & William, Amelie, Asher, Atlee, Ava, Avery, Berge, Cohen, Cora, Dillan, Dylan, Ellen, Emma-Brie, Emma Jane, Emma June, Esha, Evija, Flora, Friederich, Giorgia, Hailey, Harper & Griffin, Jack, Jackson & Parker, Jenna, Jonathan, Katie, Kayla, Keilani, Leila, Liam, Logan, Luca, Lucie, Maeve, Maya, Nasreen, Noah, Parisa, Peter, Phoenix, Reina, Sadie, Sequoia, Tais, Tessa, Tobian & Ellarudy, Tomas, Victoria, Violet, Violet Grace, Vivien, Vouk, Zumi |
And here are some Production Babies from years past…
- Bosco, Ciana, Elledale, Lotus, Zuhan – Ratatouille (2007)
- Finnegan, Lola-Renee, Milosh, Royal, Zazie – The Incredibles (2004)
- Dorri, Hanako, Oona, Tallulah, Yonatan – Finding Nemo (2003)
Have you spotted any interesting Production Baby names in the credits of other Pixar films (e.g. Toy Story, Cars, Monsters, Inc.)?
