We no longer have to speculate how Beyonce and Jay-Z came up with their daughter Blue Ivy’s name. The hip-hop legend has spoken on it.

During an exclusive interview with CBS Morning, Shawn Carter disclosed that his eldest daughter’s name had nothing to do with a color preference or branding strategy. Instead, it came from her sonogram screen.

“It was supposed to be Brooklyn,” Carter told Gayle King. But following routine prenatal check-ups a nickname was formed.

“We was calling her Blueberry. Like, ‘Look at the little blueberry.’ You know, it was like a nickname,” said Carter. “It just was natural.”

And part of it stuck. “We just took the ‘berry’ off of it and called her Blue.”

Jay-Z also spoke about Beyonce’s epic “Renaissance” world tour that featured Blue Ivy, who performed on stage with her mother as a dancer. “For me, this was her best tour,” he said. “This one to me felt like the most complete.”

He said he got goosebumps watching Blue perform and said although she was nervous, she was determined to get on stage.

“Blue’s been born into this world that she didn’t ask. She’s been born into a life she didn’t ask for. So since she was born she’s been in, like, scrutiny and public eye, and everyone having an opinion,” said Carter.

“She wanted to do it. She wanted to do it the first night, and we was like, ‘OK, if this is something you wanna do, you can’t just go out there. You gotta go work with the dancers, and go work. And she worked every day and watched her work hard,” he said.
