Coldplay rocker Chris Martin is sticking up for celebrities with unusually named children, insisting names are "just noises."

Martin and his wife Gwyneth Paltrow delved deep into the baby name book to hand their two-year-old son the Biblically-themed Moses, after giving daughter Apple, four, a fruity moniker.

But the singer insists there's nothing odd about choosing a unique name.

He tells Blender magazine, "People make a big fuss over names. Names of babies, names of albums, names of bands. There's nothing weird about calling your baby Chewbacca if that's what you want to call your baby. It's no stranger than Sarah. A name is just a noise, and, if you like it, then f**k what everyone else says."
