After what seemed like a never-ending pregnancy fashion show, Beyonce gave birth to a baby girl on Saturday. But wait, there's even bigger news: the baby's name is Blue Ivy Carter.

"Welcome to the world, Blue," Beyonce and hubby Jay-Z's good friend Gwyneth Paltrow tweeted on Sunday. "We love you already." The actress also responded to a "confused" fan who asked if the little girl's name is "Ivy Blue or Blue Ivy," clarifying, "It's Blue Ivy!"

Another famous friend, Rihanna, tweeted on Saturday, "Welcome to the world princess Carter! Love Aunty Rih." And Auntie Solange tweeted on Sunday that Blue Ivy is "the most beautiful girl in the world."

According to "Good Morning America," the superstar couple chose "Ivy" because of the meaning of the number "4" or "IV" -- Beyonce and Jay-Z were born on Sept. 4 and Dec. 4, respectively; they were married on April 4, 2008; and Beyonce's latest album is called "4." They also reportedly have matching "IV" tattoos on their wedding fingers.

Meanwhile, Jay-Z has three albums with the word "blue" in their titles: "The Blueprint" was released in 2001; "The Blueprint 2: The Gift & The Curse" was released in 2002; and "The Blueprint 3" came out in 2009.

Beyonce and Jay-Z reportedly rented out the fourth floor of New York City's Lenox Hill hospital for $1.3 million (small change for these two). Wondering how B and baby are doing? The Houston Chronicle reported that "baby and mom are doing just fine." GMA reports that the 30-year-old singer gave birth via C-section. So what do you think of the name?

    I've lost all respect I had for this woman after I read this...

    "A man was allegedly stopped from visiting his premature babies by Beyonce and Jay-Z's bodyguards in Lenox Hill Hospital, New York, this weekend.

    Beyonce had reportedly hired out and redecorated a wing at the hospital at the cost of $1.3 million (£843,000) in order to give birth to her first born child, Blue Ivy Carter, in peace, but her allegedly heavy-handed security guards apparently repeatedly stopped Neil Coulon from visiting his newborns in the neonatal intensive care unit.

    NY Daily reports that Coulon's relatives were also thrown out of a waiting room by Beyonce's private security staff.

    Coulon, whose wife delivered premature twins in the hospital last week, said of the security guards: "Three times they stopped me from entering or exiting the NICU (Neo-natal Intensive Care Unit) and it happened once on Friday — just because they wanted to use the hallway... They should have been more strategic about it. These are children with problems in intensive care and you're just going to take over the hospital like you own it? All I want is an apology."

    What has happened to family names? I feel so sorry for this child having to grow up with such a name. I admit that I do like Ivy, but paired with a more sensible name.

    A bit of both. I always liked the name Ivy. I think it would have been nicer if it was Ivy Blue. It's not as bad as some other names.

    Since someone brought up..I heard about the negative press regarding her hospital stay...I side with the dad who was barred from seeing his daughters. It great she could afford all that and the need for privacy is understandable but totally inconsiderate and insensitive. What a diva.

    What a Stupid name. Every child should be given a free name change, when they turn 21 years old.

    I say that because I changed my name, that was the first thing I did after I left home. I had to pay for it. My name wasn't half as bad as these poor kids nowadays. But, I didn't like it.

    Not "rude'......"constructive." If more people here formed complete grammatically correct sentences, their point would be made quickly. It's grueling trying to figure out what someone is trying to convey by deciphering their dribble.

    "Rude"? That is YOUR opinion. If it is construed as "rude', then perhaps the recipient of my comment will take it a little more to heart and make an extra effort to solve the problem...rather than continue to be part of the problem?

    You had a little type up there. Look closely. Everyone does it.

    STUPID questions by MORONS
    Oh.... you confused, amusing little person. Now I am "mad"?
    Why don't you use a period when you end a sentence and perhaps a capital letter when you start a new sentence? What you have typed there is called a "run-on sentence". Look it up if you have no understanding of what it means nor what it does.

    STUPID questions by MORONS
    I care. It's not mistakes. It pure LAZINESS OR uneducated society misfits who have no right to type if no one can comprehend what they are saying? It waste's many people's time to have to work their way through legible comments vs. illegible comments Trying to figure out what they're trying to say is a waste of MY time...and others.!! If you can't speak English (or form a grammatically correct sentence)...don't try to type it!!

    I just think that name is so funny because one of my dogs name is Blue.

    I don't think that that's a real suitable name for a child. It's like naming your child Purple or Green, why do it? They should've just named the girl Ivy since it has so much meaning to them rather than make that the middle name.

    Stuff celebrities can only get away with. Kids in public school would get so bullied they would actually be Blue from all the bruises.

    Why couldn't it be a normal name? I am just thinking of school age when the little tot starts school, the kids will pick on her and you know how others can be.
