Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban's newborn daughter’s name, Sunday Rose, may be part cross-promotion, part payback, reports MSNBC. The couple decided on the name after Urban wrote a song, "Sunday," about his daughter-to-be—but a source says the name could also be a shot at Tom Cruise's favored belief system.

“Nicole is a Catholic, and Sunday was an important religious day for her until she was involved in Scientology,” said the source. “She’s still bitter about her experience with Scientology and the fact her baby’s name could be perceived as one last jab doesn’t exactly upset her.” (More Nicole Kidman stories.)
