Prince Carl Philip & Princess Sophia's #4

A thread for all of us trying to predict the name :slight_smile:

Their children’s names:
Prince Alexander Erik Hubertus Bertil

  • Erik after Sophia’s father
  • Hubertus after King Carl Gustaf
  • Bertil after Prince Bertil

Prince Gabriel Carl Walther

  • Carl after Carl Philip and the King
  • Walther after Queen Silvia’s father, special thanks to @Anna03

Prince Julian Herbert Folke

  • Herbert after Princess Sophia’s grandfather, special thanks to @Anna03
  • Folke after the King

if it’s a girl, my predictions are…
First name: Astrid, Agnes, Cecilia, Eliza, Emma
Middle names: Silvia, Renate, Sibylla, Marie, Lilian, Victoria

Full name combos:
Astrid Silvia Marie
Emma Renate Sibylla Marie

Definitely think Marie will be in there one way or another as it’s the name of Sophia’s mother.
Since Princess Estelle has already has Silvia as her middle name and no other granddaughter of Queen Silvia has Sivlia as a middle name, I’m not so sure about this one.
I’m hoping that they’ll use Sibylla if they’re having a girl; it’s a gorgeous, underused name with family ties (Carl Philip’s grandmother was Princess Sibylla)


for a boy
first names: Hugo, Adrian, Benjamin, Philip, Victor, Edmund, Arthur
middle names: Fredrik, Olaf/Olof, Edmund, Philip, Daniel,

full name predictions:
Edmund Fredrik Daniel Olof
Arthur Philip Olof
Benjamin Edmund Philip Olof

Edmund was the name the family used for the King’s father (Prince Gustaf Adolf) at home as well as one of his middle names. Arthur was one of Prince Gustaf Adolf’s middle names as well.

curious to see what all of you think, especially for boy names!!


[name_m]Walther[/name_m] is the Name of [name_f]Queen[/name_f] Silvias Father

Her other grandfather is Stig

Her grandmother Ingrid

Sybillas middle Name is Alice just like Queen Silvias mother. Maybe they will use that.

Marie is also the Name of Sofias other Grandmother

Previously they’ve gone for names that are well used in Sweden but work easily in other languages (Alexander, Gabriel and Julian). Looking through the Swedish top names, a few that have a similar quality -
Girls
Vera, Agnes, Iris, Livia, Thea, Filippa, Edith & Ida
Boys
Elliot, Samuel, Casper, Henry, Elias & Vincent
From names I’ve already seen suggested Victor, Hugo, Emilia and Clara seem likely guesses.
Middles will certainly be family names, but I don’t know enough about families to guess!

Name will be revealed in monday according to some sources, seems we still have some time to brainstorm!

Women on her side of family have [name_f]Marie[/name_f], [name_f]Britt[/name_f], [name_f]Ingrid[/name_f], [name_f]Lina[/name_f] [name_f]Maria[/name_f] (Sofia’s sister) and [name_f]Sara[/name_f] [name_f]Helena[/name_f] (another sister)
[name_f][/name_f]I don’t know will they use another name from existing siblings to them (maybe, since [name_f]Princess[/name_f] Victoria’s son already had [name_m]Carl[/name_m] as middle)
[name_f][/name_f]my guess is that they might use [name_f]Valentina[/name_f] since it’s [name_f]February[/name_f] and it is close to Valentine’s day
[name_f][/name_f]I would also like them to use [name_f]Sibylla[/name_f] but that name is probably too dated in this day and age

[name_f][/name_f]

so my guesses are
[name_f][/name_f][name_f]Valentina[/name_f] [name_f]Ingrid[/name_f] [name_f]Marie[/name_f]
[name_f][/name_f][name_f]Amelia[/name_f] [name_f]Ingrid[/name_f] [name_f]Alice[/name_f] [name_f]Marie[/name_f] [name_f][/name_f]- not sure about [name_f]Amelia[/name_f] since I’m not sure how ‘English’ it is in [name_m]Sweden[/name_m]
[name_f][/name_f][name_f]Agnes[/name_f] [name_f]Ingrid[/name_f] [name_f]Marie[/name_f] [name_f]Helene[/name_f]
[name_f][/name_f][name_f]Emmeline[/name_f] [name_f]Sibylla[/name_f] [name_f]Marie[/name_f]
[name_f][/name_f][name_f]Ingrid[/name_f] [name_f]Alice[/name_f] [name_f]Helena[/name_f] [name_f]Marie[/name_f] or [name_f]Alice[/name_f] [name_f]Helena[/name_f] [name_f]Ingrid[/name_f] [name_f]Marie[/name_f]
[name_f][/name_f][name_f]Olivia[/name_f] [name_f]Ingrid[/name_f] [name_f]Britt[/name_f] [name_f]Marie[/name_f]
[name_f][/name_f][name_f]Sigrid[/name_f] is another possibility as it’s similar popularity as they boys names at time of their birth, but not sure will they choose that over [name_f]Ingrid[/name_f].
[name_f][/name_f]they choose multi syllabic for their sons, but can’t know for sure their sister will have more than 2 syllable name, since top [name_m]Sweden[/name_m] boys name list have more syllables than their top girls names list.

I woundn`t be surprised if her first name is [name_f]Marielle[/name_f] or [name_f]Mariella[/name_f]. I think it goes with the boys names.
[name_f][/name_f]For her full name my guess is [name_f]Marielle[/name_f] [name_f]Renate[/name_f] [name_f]Victoria[/name_f].

Considering Sybillas 4th name was Alice I think they might use Alice. Even though Sybilla is a beautiful Name. Comsidering Princess Birgitta Ingeborg Alice the sister of the King was Carl Philips Godmother and just past away I think that would be a nice touch too to use the Name Alice

Older vintage names are red hot here in [name_m]Sweden[/name_m], so I think names like [name_f]Signe[/name_f], [name_f]Hedda[/name_f], [name_f]Ebba[/name_f], [name_f]Agnes[/name_f], [name_f]Florence[/name_f], [name_f]Astrid[/name_f], [name_f]Lovisa[/name_f] and [name_f]Matilda[/name_f].
[name_f][/name_f]I also throw in [name_f]Eloise[/name_f], [name_f]Helena[/name_f] and [name_f]Clara[/name_f].

[name_f][/name_f]

I also think [name_f]Sibylla[/name_f] might be in there somewhere, also [name_f]Kristina[/name_f] (Sofia’s middle name), [name_f]Birgitta[/name_f], [name_f]Marie[/name_f] (Sofia’s mum) and [name_f]Victoria[/name_f] (how cute wouldn’t it be if she was named after her oldest aunt?)
