Celebrities don’t just give their children crazy names. Their homes can be subject to ridiculous titles too.
This week, Derek Jeter’s new mansion — the largest in the Tampa Bay area — has been making headlines. Team co-owner Hank Steinbrenner accused the Yankee of focusing more on his big house, dubbed “St. Jetersburg” by locals, than the World Series. While Jeter didn’t christen his home St. Jetersburg himself, the name is far too catchy to disappear quickly.

So, with that, NewsFeed will take a look at some ridiculous celebrity estate names, whether or not the celebs dubbed the properties themselves.
Michael Jackson’s “Neverland” MJ’s Santa Barbara County ranch featured an amusement park, floral clock and a petting zoo. Statues of children playing on the yards reflected the estate’s Peter Pan theme of “staying young forever.”
Ryan Seacrest’s “Casa Di Pace” After less than five years, put his Nichols Canyon “house of peace” on the market. We guess it wasn’t as peaceful as the impeccably-manicured TV personality had hoped.
Bill Gate’s “The Ecology House” The Microsoft founder’s Medina, Washington house from the future took over seven years to build. After all that effort, you’d think he could have come up with a snappier name.
Taylor Swift’s “The Imaginarium” The Nashville apartment has everything a filthy rich 20-year-old would ever dream of, including a pond filled with sting rays and a human-size bird cage.
Donald Trump’s “Maison de L’amitie” When The Donald bought the “house of friendship” on the prestigious Palm Beach in 2004, he said it was for development purposes rather than personal use. His friendly treatment made the home’s value escalate almost $100 million.
Jennifer Aniston’s “Ohana” The star is allegedly ditching her Beverly Hills mansion named “extended family” in Hawaiian in order to de-clutter. Her current asking price? $42 million for her 42 years. With a price tag like that, there better be room for the entire extended family.
Oprah Winfrey’s “The Promised Land” The 42-acre estate may have lived up to its name for Barack Obama when the TV giant hosted a campaign fundraiser, for the then Democratic Party hopeful. Many believed the Winfrey’s support changed the course of the Dems’ primary.
Eddie Murphy’s “Bubble Hill” Looks like the funny man’s funny name for his estate didn’t help him in the real estate department. His Englewood, NJ home has been on the market since 2004.
