Gomez took the title from former boyfriend Justin Bieber.

There was also plenty of chatter about possible names.

Online betting company Betfair said, "Indie and Isaiah are the early 10/1 favourites as Beyoncé was raised in a religious household and Destiny's Child, where she began her career, was named from a passage in the Book of Isaiah."
