He has a name!

    I thought she'd go for something a little more unique but maybe the Queen wouldn't have that! George is fine for a future king. I guess DD will have a bunch of boyfriends named George as I'm guessing there will be a spike in the name.

    I love it. My nephew was just named George (5th in a line of Georges, actually!). I was really hoping they'd include Spencer in his name, too, though.

    @petunia354: yes. That is the name he took when he became king.

    I was hoping for 4 names, like William, Harry, and Charles all have, but I think it is perfect for him.

    Eta: while it would have been nice for them to include Spencer in the name, I'm not terribly surprised they didn't, actually.

    I like it, too! Fit for a prince! Are there any relatives with the name George? I can't think of any. Maybe that's why they chose it over using another names.

    @bluestriped bee: yes! Elizabeth's father was King George, and maybe grandfather, too?

    I was expecting four names! I like it though.

    Good thing his name wasn't Joffrey.

    @Leialou: me too! Is it weird that I was sad there are only 3?

    I think it's very cute. I love that they stuck with tradition. He will be kind some day, and it's very fitting. I was a little sad that "William" didn't make it into his name, but maybe they aren't into that whole thing.

    I'm glad Louis wasn't the first name. That's a top contender for us. I think George is nice. I wonder if it's popularity will spike.

    @bluestriped bee: Queen Elizabeth's father was King George. Have you seen the movie The King's Speech? It's about him!

    @LovelyPlum: Ah, cool. So no one is currently alive with the name George. I like it that he is the only Prince George right now.

    @lawbee11: No, I haven't. Is it a good movie? Should I watch it?

    Very classic, not my particular favorite name, but it fits a king!

    I love it. Last night at dinner, my husband said, "I bet it will be George Alexander something." Errrr.....he was the closest of anyone I know. Ha!

    I like George a lot!

    @bluestriped bee: Amazing movie...you should definitely watch it! Colin Firth is excellent in it.

    Yay! I was hoping for James, but George was my second favorite guess. I like it a lot. I wonder if he'll go by that, though.

    @Mrs. Champagne: Do you think it's said "Louie" or "Lewis"?

    @lawbee11: I had NO idea that was about her father. We loved that movie ... truly captivating!

    I'm not a big fan of the name George. My FIL is named George and absolutely didn't want our LO named after him or his middle name which he didn't like either. I was hoping for James. James is more regal sounding to me.

    @TemperanceBrennan: I definitely think it will spike!

    @Vegmama: at the wedding William pronounced Louis (his third middle name) as Louie.

    @bluestriped bee: watch it! One of my faves

    @Vegmama: yep! She's actually in it, too...well,not the actual queen, but the oldest daughter in the movie is supposed to be her.

    @lawbee11: @LovelyPlum: Cool! I'll add it to my list to watch. Thanks!

    @Vegmama: I say definitely "Loo-wee", since that is how Kate pronounced it at her wedding!

    @TemperanceBrennan: Whooo! DS is Louis I love Alexander too. Not crazy about George though.

    @LovelyPlum: like @Vegmama: I bet it is pronounced Louie, DS is pronounced that way.

    I don't love George, although King George is very regal. I was hoping for Arthur myself!

    George was in our top 3 if DD had been a boy (team green). Obviously, I love it, and it's a family name for us too. My guess for them had been George Frederick Louis Charles. I'm actually not huge on Alexander, personally, but overall it feels very them.
