I was almost positive that the royal baby would be a girl named [name]Charlotte[/name]… but I guess I was wrong! It’s a little prince! What do you guys think the name will be? He was born at 4:24 PM and weighed in at 8 lbs, 6 oz. I’m dying to here the name!
I’m thinking: George Charles Philip
Royal Baby Watch Live: http://www.usmagazine.com ; here’s a great link to see live footage of “The Royal Baby Watch”! Just thought I’d share it with you berries
I was really hoping for a girl but glad to know that he’s here and healthy! Still, I’m secretly hoping that they don’t name him [name]Arthur[/name] - I’m afraid it will sky-rocket to popularity, my favorite name!
[name]Arthur[/name]! Please be [name]Arthur[/name]! I’m guessing it will be [name]George[/name] though which is a great name but … you know… pretty predictable. Part of me is rooting for [name]Richard[/name] as well. But I might cry if they don’t use [name]Arthur[/name].
[name]Arthur[/name] [name]George[/name] [name]Philip[/name] [name]Francis[/name] (my opinion on this changes every day)
I’m hoping they stick [name]Francis[/name] in there
[name]Just[/name] as an aside I wonder how much input [name]Kate[/name] and [name]William[/name] actually had in the naming process. So many restrictions, or traditions to be kept, and “so and so is named that so probably not…” At least they get to pick 4 names from those that meet approval!
It might be uncommon here, it isn’t there, it’s the sixth most popular name.
Plus it’s been the name of several kings, and [name]Charles[/name] himself is planning to use [name]George[/name] as his regal name, and not reign as [name]Charles[/name].
So yes, in terms of the UK and royal history, it’s incredibly predictable and somewhat boring.
Am I the only one who is against both [name]George[/name] and [name]Arthur[/name]? I hope they pick [name]Philip[/name] or [name]Alexander[/name]! And I agree with author in writing, now I don’t want [name]Alexander[/name] (even though it can’t really skyrocket, it’s already in the top 10). So I am really hoping for [name]Philip[/name]!
