@Mrs. Pen: I agree! I am curious what names Kate would've chosen if she weren't part of the royal family! She has such good taste, I'm sure she would've came up with some great names.
-
I think maybe Harry would use Diana in some way, but I don't expect Wills and Kate to. My vote is Mary Adelaide Elizabeth, Mae for short. My prediction is Alice Elizabeth Victoria, though I do like Charlotte with George.
-
Was there a royal Alice? I'm curious why it's one of the expected choices.
I wonder what the Vegas odds are on them using Camilla!
-
@rattles: I think that's probably true!
-
@jedeve: It was the name of Queen Victoria's second daughter (famous for insisting she breastfeed her own baby, fun fact), and it's a middle of the current Princess Anne (Queen Elizabeth's only daughter). It's also the name of Prince Philip's mother, so William's great-grandmother.
-
@rattles: I love your pick. Mae would be so cute and Mary Adelaide Elizabeth has a great flow and is so classic.
-
I think they'll work Frances in to honor Princess Diana.
-
@CarrieLouWho: that's pretty much my guess too. Maybe Margaret or Anne instead of Elizabeth though. I also really like Frances but don't see that happening.
-
The name is Charlotte Elizabeth Diana
-
@lawbee11: love it!
-
@lawbee11: I love it!
-
@lawbee11: Aww! Great, strong name.
-
Love it!
-
@jhd: did you place your bet??
-
@lawbee11: aww I love it!!!
-
I'm surprised but I totally love it!
-
I like the middle names but think the first name is so overdone these days. Perhaps it's not as popular in the UK as here in the states though?
-
@rachiecakes: I should have!
Love the name!!
-
Yay love it! Charlotte is so popular right now, but I still think it is a beautiful, classic name! So glad they used Diana.
-
@lawbee11: a very sweet name!
-
Love it!
-
@lawbee11: Aww, I love it. Charlotte is one of my favorite girls names.
-
They have good taste.
Obviously, they just copied us. Followers. Psh.
-
@coopsmama: And no, it's pretty equally popular. Charlotte is a fairly traditional English name. We heard it a LOT more there than we have since being back in the States.
-
@jhd: wow spot on!
-
According to this, it's the 21st girls name in England, down from 7. http://names.darkgreener.com/#charlotte
She will probably always have to go by Charlotte + last initial, though. It'll just be HRH.
-
Lovely, but yawn...
-
People's website can't decide what she's named. Somebody didn't proofread before publishing
-
@cookiemomster: Lol awkward! They obviously prepped several name posts in advance to be able to post quickly, which makes sense but....someone should have been paying more attention when actually posting!
-
@cookiemomster: ha! I saw the same thing.
-
@cookiemomster: haha!
-
@loveisstrange: @jedeve: Interesting. It's absolutely a lovely name - I've just heard it so frequently these days (both online and within my own circles) that it doesn't feel quite as special for the princess, but that doesn't really matter.
@cookiemomster: ha! Wow.
-
My LO is also Charlotte Elizabeth! I'm a trend setter
-
@jedeve: haha I doubt she'll have to worry about distinguishing herself with a last initial- she'll always be Princess Charlotte
-
A very pretty name! Unfortunately my good friend is already using it for her daughter (she's due the day before me!) so I'll have to think of something else.
-
Love the name. Glad they were able to use Diana in her name.
-
I like it! Don't care if it's popular, not everybody names just according to trends.
