Jay-Z and his alleged wife BeYonce are reported to be allegedly expecting their first child. Their. Alleged. First. Child.
I remember reading some story on the internets about how BeYonce had to terminate a pregnancy since the baby daddy was some loser from her hometown in Texas. It’s also hard to believe no scheming chick hasn’t secured a seed from Shawn Carter.
So if this moment is actually true it is monumental and historic for all the fans of these two megastars. Who may or may not be married. Only time will tell if BeYonce is actually with child, but in the meantime and in between time we can do what the internets is famous for…
Giving people advice they didn’t ask for.
Over 126,000 kids were born in New York in 2009. This is a list of the 10 most popular names.
If the Jay-Bey child is a boy it would be too obvious to name him Jayson huh?
How about Shawonce? Any real African-American can tell you this name works for both a boy or a girl.
I like Singladeeshia for a girl, or maybe even Rocasia.
I’m sure whichever name the alleged couple chooses will be filled with the creativity they have brought into the entertainment industry.
Not that I doubt DPeezy sources but what the fuck with that list? NYC names of white folks with combined household income over $150,000? Maybe the white plurality– which ain’t close to simple majority– beats out all splintered others?
Or am I outta touch and those Mexican kids named “Jayden” and “Madison.” A few of those– especially on boys side– are pan-ethnic but still. Still.
Sidenote 1: why did Spike Lee move to Upper East Side?
Sidenote 2: I ignore such things now but a few years ago there’s was planted real estate lie that Beyonce & Shawn were looking at those new Richard Meier condos at Grand Army Plaza– they can certainly afford it but what happened?
Ain’t saying the kid has to go to Westinghouse but how about Brooklyn Tech?
I know 3 babies with 3 separate names on that list… might be true
actually 4 names… missed one. And only one of them are white.
My son is mixed and named Jayden.
Demographic correction noted– props to Jayden!
Where are all those Ethans at? And Madison? I still think white can skew the poll by having concentration of similar names, whereas the other groups who, in sum, are majority, are scattered between culture-specific (“traditional”) names and the pop stuff. Of course Christoper, David, Michael etc etc are applicable to everyone…
Leah less so.
