Celebrity moms had this list of what all of Angelina and Brads kids names mean. I thought it was interesting.
~ Pax Thien, 3: The family's newest addition name was changed today from Pham Quang Sang to Pax Thien which means "peaceful sky". Pax means "peace" in Latin, and "Thien" means sky in Vietnamese.
~ Maddox Chivan, 5: Jolie changed her first child's name from Rath Vibol to Maddox Chivan. Maddox is a Celtic word meaning "beneficent" and Chivan has no identifiable origin. The family uses his nickname Mad.
~ Zahara Marley, 2: Zahara was born with the name Tena Adam. Zahara means "flower" in Swahili and "to shine" in Hebrew. Marley is a reference to the reggae singer Bob Marley.
~ Shiloh Nouvel, 10 months: Jolie gave birth to the Shiloh last year in the African country of Namibia. Shiloh means "peaceful one," in Hebrew. Nouvel is a reference to Jean Nouvel, a famous French architect.

How confusing is it for a child to be called a name for 3 years and then one day you start being called another name?
Here's a site that says all the different meanings of the name. http://vdict.com/thien,2,0.html And yes the meaning does change depending on what accent mark is above the word but, even still, none of the definitions is sky. In fact of one of the definitions for Thien meant: "superficial or shallow" and yet another one means: "to castrate, to trim to prune away" With all the money in the world, they can't even hire a proper translator.
TY.
