Blu Ivy

Beyonce and Jay-Z's new baby girl's name reportedly...

Blue after Jay-Z's album Blueprint and Ivy because Beyonce's favorite number is 4 (IV in Roman numerals)

Like it?  Hate it?

I really like Ivy, not too sure about Blu.  I only think of Old School "you're my boy blue!"

  • It is Blue Ivy. Ivy for Roman numerals "IV" (4). Beyonce and Jay-Z were both born on the 4th.

  • Not a fan of Blue for a first name, wish it was Ivy Blu(e) and that celebs would just pick normal names and not work so hard at coming up with the most unique name.
  • Don't like it...my thoughts are that celebrities pick out insane names!

  • Meh - don't love, but it's better than what most celebrities choose.
  • I don't mind it. I know real kids named both Blue and Ivy. One goes to school with T, the other with M. Both are great girls whose names totally suit them. I'm sure the same will be true of J&B's baby.

    my thoughts exactly...  could have been MUCH worse.

  • I know an older lady named B'Lou (pronounced "blue") and I've always loved her name. In case you're wondering, it's short for Betty Lou.
  • I know. It's crazy... like naming your kid after a noble gas or something.

  • I like Ivy, not Blue.

    It reminds me of Blue Angel Evans (The Edge from U2's daughter).

    COME ON.  Mom's name is "Beyonce Dereon".  Honestly, "Blu" is pretty tame compared to that.

    I know a little girl named Grey.  I guess it's not super different (I only wish they'd spelled it correctly).

    I do not care for it, but it could have been worse.

    Beyonce is named after two family names. Beyince and Dereon surnames. So that makes sense. 

    Now that I know the meaning behind Blue Ivy, it's sort of cute.

    But I guess little Blue will just be hanging out with Moroccan and Monroe!

  • i think i like the name Apple better.  also on Roula and Ryan yesterday they said that J had a girlfriend in the past named blu(e).  that makes it sort of weird to me.  i like the name David but since the biggest love of my life before DH was named David the name is not an option.

    if it is the same Grey I know, she was named after her dad's grandmother.
