Baby Carter is finally here....


Beyonce finally delivered her little girl, Saturday January 7th in NYC by a scheduled c-section. They named her, Blue Ivy Carter. I have been anticipating the naming of their child and I am surprised at their name choice. I knew they were definitely going to choose something unique, but I was surprised with Blue. I wonder if it has a special meaning to the couple.

I am super excited (so much like she's my own sister) for Beyonce and Jay! I cannot wait to see the pics of the new bundle of joy... but I can bet it will be sometime before they introduce her to the world.

Update: According to Global Grind, here is the meaning behind the name choice Blue:

We'll start with the baby's first name, Blue. The obvious; Jay-Z's franchise albums have been called the Blueprint. Blue consist of 4 letters which can be linked to Beyonce's love for the number four, and a tribute to her husband. As far as the color blue, it's considered the coolest color of the spectrum. Ancient Egyptian used blue to represent the heavens. Blue also symbolizes the Virgin Mary. The color represents inspiration, sincerity and spirituality.

Next, let's break down the middle name, Ivy. Beyonce has gone on record saying how important the number "4" is to her. With the number being so special to her, it makes sense that she would incorporate her favorite number into her child's name. Ivy contains the roman numeral IV as it's first two letters, which we all know is the number 4. The name itself Ivy comes from the plant which symbolizes eternity. Greek and Roman societies admired the ivy plant for its hardiness and longevity. They believed the plant aided fertility.
