Twitter index: Beyoncé and Jay-Z celebrate birth of baby girl Blue Ivy

Singer Beyonce on November 20, 2011 in New York City

Beyoncé and Jay-Z are celebrating the birth of their baby girl “Blue Ivy” and the Twittersphere has erupted into a chorus of congratulatory posts and questions about the child’s name.

“There's a meaning in Ivy Blue,” explain Twitterers, “IVy = a roman numeral for 4 which is Beyoncé's favorite number and BLUE for Jay-Z's Blueprint albums. Wow.”

American model “Amber Rose” (@DaRealAmberRose) is out of favor with Twitter users after she called American socialite Kim Kardashian a “cheater” and said that “incarcerated groupie” Kat Stacks was empowering women because “she did to men what men been doing to women for years.”

Microbloggers are posting their favorite Southern sayings, the 100 things they hate and the one thing they find sexy with the top three hashtags “#SouthernSaying” “#100ThingsIHate” and “#1ThingIFindSexy.”

Justin Bieber fans are tweeting “We Love Justin” while other Twitter users are counting down the 366 days of the year with fourth place term “Page 9 of 366.”

The Portuguese phrase “TeAmamosNahC PraSempreNazetes” is in sixth place and the TV series “Dance Moms” appears in ninth place.
