But certainly using foreign celebrities is a very bad idea.

Yes. Use the childrens names of your local high status people.

In the US the way that people who go to Harvard and Yale name their children is what's counts as high status signal.

I second that. Celebrity is misleading. I wanted to give a concrete example "high status people" is too abstract.
