Beyonce and Jay Z's Daughter Named Honorary Citizen of Croatian island

Beyonce carries Blue Ivy Carter

  American superstars Beyonce and Jay-Z's daughter Blue Ivy Carter has been named an honorary citizen of the Croatian town of Hvar, after reports the couple named her for a local tree. 

     "The story of the origin of your girl's name, Blue Ivy, has brought huge media attention and great tourism promotion to the town of Hvar," said Mayor Pjerino Bebic in a letter sent to the couple, "I have decided to grant your daughter the status of honorary citizen of the town."

      Blue Ivy, born in January, was reportedly named after a tree wrapped in blue ivy the couple had seen on the island during their visit in September 2011.
    Media in Croatia have recently broadcast a video that Beyonce, 30, shot during the visit to Hvar in which she posed next to a tree covered with ivy, saying her child could be named Blue Ivy. 

     Bebic invited the couple with their daighter to pay another visit to the island. Beyonce and Jay-Z have already visited the most prominent Croatian coastal town, Dubrovnik, in August 2009.
