Jay-Z recently shared more about Blue Ivy in his interview with Gayle King, and he even disclosed the origin of Blue’s name.
Jay said, “It was supposed to be Brooklyn. We was calling her Blueberry. Like, ‘Look at the little blueberry.’ You know, it was like a nickname. It just was natural.”
He continued, “We just took the ‘berry’ off of it and called her Blue.”
He added about maintaining the ‘cool dad’ status with Blue, “Blue – she be fronting on me a little bit, but I catch her in the corner. Now she asks me if this is cool — her sneakers or whatever she’s wearing. She’s come back, but there was a time where she was like, ‘Daaaad!’ I was like, ‘I’m cool. I don’t what you saying! At your house, your parents is cool!’”
