Beyonce Baby Names: Revealed! Kind of Weird!
Ever since the world learned that Beyonce had welcomed twins, rumors about the offsprings’ names and genders were just about everywhere on social media.
Unfortunately, numerous Beyonce baby name rumors means lots of misinformation flying around.
There’s still been no official announcement from the Carter camp, but TMZ is claiming to have obtained legal documents revealing the monikers of Queen Bey’s prince and princess.
(Yes, the site is also confirming it’s a boy and a girl.)
This is the family who gave us Blue Ivy Carter, so it should come as no surprise that the names are a long way off the beaten path.
According to trademark documents filed last week the twins’ names are …
Rumi and Sir Carter!
Filing to trademark the names of infants might be absurd for anyone who’s not Jay Z and Beyonce, but it makes perfect sense for the Carters.
It seems Jay and Bey took the precaution to ensure that no one will use their tykes’ names to cash in by using them to market:
“Fragrances, cosmetics, key chains, baby teething rings, strollers, mugs, water bottles, hair ribbons, playing cards, tote bags, sports balls and rattles and novelty items.”
“Novelty items” is a bit vague, but we suppose if you want to release, say, a line of high-end toothpastes or vitamin supplements, you’re legally in the clear.
You could also use Sir Carter as your rap name, but just know that as soon as the kid can talk, he will destroy you in lyrical combat, and your street cred will never recover from losing a battle to a toddler.
Anyway, the most important thing is that Beyonce and both babies are home, happy and healthy.
The twins remained hospitalized for several days due to unspecified health issues after their birth.
Sources inside the hospital claim both babies were showing signs of jaundice and had to spend some time “under the lights” to correct possible liver issues.
While frightening, it’s not an uncommon occurrence, and both Sir and Rumi are said to have recovered as expected.
Yes, we’re already calling them Sir and Rumi, so we’ll be pretty devastated if this rumor turns out to be inaccurate.
Not only will we have to break the habit of referring to the twins that way, we’ll have to rename our ride-sharing app that we plan to name after them.

Internet Comes to Rescue of Bullied 9-Year Old: Read the Moving Birthday Tweets!
Twitter can be a wonderful place.
Unfortunately, there"s no place safe from bullies, and Twitter is just as full of vicious trolls as everywhere else. (And no, we don"t just mean the current President of the United States and his infamous tweets)
That"s why it is so, so nice to see Twitter used as a powerful force for good — even if the only person being directly helped is a British 9-year-old.
See, Ollie has one of those almost over-the-top bullies, as many 9-year-olds do, who wants to impress upon him that nothing that he does for his birthday could possibly measure up to the bully"s own celebrations.
We all know how that goes — some little kid wants to make another little kid feel like he can"t measure up. It"s the exact same motivation behind why adults are nasty to each other, basically.
So, Ollie"s dad Christopher took to Twitter to ask for people to ask any celebrities, major or minor, to send a pleasant birthday message in Ollie"s direction to give the 9-year-old a much-needed boost.
That"s not unreasonable — there are grown-ass adults who tweet at celebrities to ask for a birthday shout-out. This seems a great deal worthier, you know?
But Christopher and his wife Natalie clearly never expected the kind of response that they received. Take a look at these tweets, and know that we saved the best — or, at least, the most famous — for last.
1. Christopher’s tweets
These tweets by Ollie’s father, Christopher, are what started it all.
2. Stormzy’s tweet
Rapper Stormzy tweeted this out. The guy whose first album is “Gang Signs and Prayer” might not sound like the person you imagine would fight childhood bullying, but you’d clearly be wrong.
3. Regina Looby’s tweet
Regina Looby is a radio and television producer.
4. England’s tweet
To be clear, this is England the sportsball team, not England the entire country.
5. Chase Masterson’s tweet
Chase Masterson is a fairly well-known actress whose credits include The Flash, Star Trek, and the UK’s favorite timey-wimey nonsense, Doctor Who. Also she’s worked to combat bullying, so this is really no surprise.
6. Tom Bosworth’s first tweet
Tom Bosworth is clearly humble, but he’s a British racewalker who holds records for a ridiculous number of different lengths of race. And, you know, he’s an Olympian.
