We have a feeling crazy Tameka was the main culprit in naming this child:

NAVIYD ELY RAYMOND was born at 2:33 a.m. Wednesday and weighed 5 lbs, 13 oz. Their first son, Usher Raymond V, turned 1 on Nov. 26.

“Tameka and the baby are doing fine,” a rep for the singer tells Us.

Nav-who??? Is that like David, just with a dash of ‘hood’ sprinkled on top? SMH at that crazy Tameka.

    They like it, I love it….I guess. That was a little bitty baby. Glad to hear they’re doing well.

  • sj

    Maybe it’s Navy with the D on the end…Naviyd??

  • Megatron

    Usher doesn’t have any say on what to name his child or leaving this chick. She will leave his a@@ taking half, and his income won’t ne $h!t thanks to Chris Brown.

  • Adiamondcenter

    Damn Usher I hope your in love…Something just doesnt seem right ….maybe it is just my opinion…but blesses……….

  • sam

    thats such a cute name (Na-veed). good work on trying different names out Usher!

  • MS k

    AFTER READING RUSS SIMMONS DUM ASS LOVE FOR SNOW BUNNIES.I HAVE THIS TO SAY TO USHER. THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU.KEEP POPULATING THE WORLD WITH OUR BEAUTIFUL BLACK BABIES.

  • Thoruoughbred

    Naviyd is actually a variation of Naveed or Navid which means good news. I believe it is Arabic??? Think Feliz Navidad also (even though that is Spanish…)

    @sj

    Maybe it’s Navy with the D on the end…Naviyd??

    LOL!! Exotic names may work well for the rich, but I don’t how well it will work on Main Street.

    When I get ready to interview someone and I can’t pronounce their name, I drop their resume in the trash. Yes, I know it’s ignorant, but so are their parents for naming them something stupid. Everyday I see names that make me cringe. Placenta, Emergency, Argasm, Vulva, Crustacea, Bridgidalpheniadelpia and the list goes on.

    We need to stop.

  • Get The F*(K Outtta Here!

    Cha-Ching! Cha-Ching!

  • Reesie….of Cephus and Reesie

    Ummmmm….why not just name him…DAVID

  • Christmas Time aka ATXChick

    im still trying to fix my tongue to say the name!!!……………… nope still dont have it darn… guess i go back to my hook on phonics studies for this one…

  • Thoroughbred

    Being Creole doesn’t mke you legit?? having nappy hair does?? I’m sorry but wtf??? Unless you are straight out of Africa then you got a little bit of the “massuh” or Spanish up in you too silly kid. It is NAH-VEED…(read a book or something) Naveed …is a Persian name meaning “bearer of good news” or “best wishes”( You know our people have to “remix it”)

  • jstbnme

    maybe they meant Navidad!

  • Scarlett

    Wasn’t that Steve Martin’s name in The Jerk?

  • Pretty Brown Thing

    wHAT?? LOL

  • …YUP!

    Naveed ely …thts cute …they threw tht ghetto spelling on there tho lol

    but umm lmao at the beyonce not being a legit blk woman comment LMAO

    umm school kids school thats all im gonna say

  • Stephanie in Texas

    Uh. I’m Puerto Rican, which makes me Black by descent but NONE of my kids are nappy headed and they are ALL legit. It’s unintelligent font of that nature that is the REASON Blacks will never come together on the same plateau. I’m not mad at Usher, but I do think he could have made a MUCH better selection at choosing a wife and mother of his kids. I’m glad the baby is well, but that name, uh no.

    @ Raquel

    Oprah and Condolezza did just fine professionally with their made up names.

  • Mrs. Cav

    @ Ms. K

    May I ask, what is “black” to you? How do you define that?

  • blaq

    @ Stephanie in Texas

    I know, why would Usher want to marry a woman he loves, he should have chosen someone we would like.

  • Thoroughbred

    @ blaq

    Thank you…damn

  • Raquel26

    @blaq:

    I’m speaking of the the majority, not the exceptions.

  • blaq

    @ raquel

    Would you have had an issue if they named him Eric or Michael, no, why because they are European names therefore more acceptable. The majority of people who have a desire to work and prosper do, regardless of their names and with a Barack Obama in the White house, I am sure people are much more accepting of Unique names. Well people who are black and have antiquated ideas, a go around with a measuring stick for what is too black, not black enough an so on.

  • blaq

    well not people….

    This picture is classic. I would be upset if someone took a pic of me and my husband and he was looking at me like that. Funny sh!t.

    Anyway congratz on the baby.

    Much respect to Usher for marrying a beautiful black sista, you know what surprises me, that many of my insecure sistas have a problem with this marriage. They say Tameka looks like a man and other hurtful things but what they don’t realize is that Tameka is a good representation of us. You can’t help who you fall for but Usher has never been on the white side, he is looking for a women who is just like his mother, thats why he has only dated black women (Naomi Campbell, Chili), he is a good black man with a good black women, I hope they have a blessed future and raise their kids together.

  • PRADA…

    WEIRD NAME

  • pinkandgreengurl04

    No Offense but my grandmother always told me one thing… She said baby name ur child something they can spell and they can pronounce. Then 2 if the name has anything to do do with this baby’s looks. I fell bad for him!

  • lisa

    Usher’s side-eye is classic in that photo. That tells it all right there. Her butt is blackmailing his ass, and securing her future of stacks in the process.

  • HANNIBALS PIMP AKA MR.BACKHAND

    i bet tameka got some bomb pootang.

  • Angie

    @ Winter

    How is she a good representation of all black women? All black women don’t look like men, fist. Second, u don’t even know her personally. And third, Chili i s not even 100% black!

  • TAMEKA NOT USHER WIFE LOL

    GOOD LUCK USHER I AM GLAD THAT YOUR BABY BOY IS FINE HE WILL LOOKED LIKE YOU AND YOUR SON AND MOTHER. AND PLEASE CHAGE YOUR SON NAME NOBODY CAN SAY IT TRY JAMES OR BACACK OBAMA RAYMOND TALK TO YTOUR EX WIFE ABOUT CHAGING HIS NAME YES EX YOU ARE FINNIELY GOING TO GET RIDE OF YOUR MOTHER FOR GOOD AND I DONT MAEN YOUR MANGER MOM.THAT WOMEN IS 40 TIME TO MOVE ON USHER LIKE SOME ONE YOUR AGE IN HER 20 OR 28.

    I am very happy that I found this site.

    My name is Naveed. For all those who have shown their uncultured, uncouth side, it IS easy to pronounce. Its Persian in origin (not Arabic) and means “glad tidings”. It has been the name of several Princes / Warriors of royal blood over the last 5000 years…May it carry its blessings to anyone who name their child Naveed. Amen

    And by the way, the new 90210 has a character by the same name.
