If they do that, I might just warm to them.

Haha madsleighlady that is such a worry, I'm due in June! I'm sure my names are far away enough from regal... But it's a worry that they may go off the traditional path!

Wow, how annoying would it be to be a republican and innocently name your new baby next year with what later proves to be the Royal Name? You'd be forever fending off "Ooh did you name him/her after..."

I think one of camilla's gc is an Eliza and one of princess margaret's gc called marguerite . how do i retain this information?
I can't remember breaking times/ distances

LOL GoldPlatedninedoors! :-)

Bob

And then one day we'll have King Bob

Still reckon theyll go for Margaret.

Or Shania.

I would love for Mary to get all trendy again and knock Amelia off the top baby name spot. Whatever they choose will go zooming up the charts. Also love Marielle - beautiful just as it is.

Kate's mum is Carole...

I think that they should name their baby something hilarious weird and wonderful that no one will expect.

They should do a Jason Lee and have something like Pilot Inspektor for a boy or even something like Dave or Kevin.

Do royals have lists of names that are acceptable?

I think they shouldnt have to go with choosing names of family and instead choose their own name for the baby rather than sort of being limited.

i think they should choose isabel or isabella as an alternative to
elizabeth as same meaning
what is kate's mum's name?

not a royalist here so maybe not as up-to-speed as others, but I'm surprised that Eliza hasn't been mentioned as a possibility, either as a name in its own right, or as a variant of Elizabeth which may be on the BC. I wouldn't be surprised if the name is new for the Royals but with links to tradition. Marielle or similar could be a good shout.

Well I don't know what the Duke and Duchess think, but you've just reminded me how much I like the name Marielle. Must add it to the shortlist now!

Mary Elizabeth Caroline Diana - Marielle at home, for short, to those in the know. I dreamt that that would be the baby's name!
