AIBU?

Royal Baby name making me rage

Firstly, I know that I am ridiculous and unreasonable and totally over invested but it is GIVING ME THE ABSOLUTE RAGE that the Royals haven't released the name of the baby yet. I'm sure they are doing it deliberately just to exercise the tiny scraping of power they actually have over us. They are doing evil laughs behind the curtains of Buck House and saying "let the commoners wait..."

Full sympathy as I just fruitlessly googled ‘royal baby name’ to see if I’d missed it!

Lol. Or maybe they can't decide who should pull the new babies name out of a 🎩 as they still can't decide?

She had to put on a public show a few hours after giving birth, I think she's entitled to make people wait for the name.

Maybe they are just struggling to find boys' names that they like!! I had that problem - a surplus of gorgeous girl names and no nice boy names. I did like Ben but the dog had that name...

Did you see Wills attended an event today. I bet they can't decide and he stropped off. Maybe she wants to call it Gary or Kevin.

Poor kate. People complaining that she was pressured into posing for a photo.
People complaining she hasnt responded to pressure to tell us the baby’s name.

Fgs just wait. She has just had a baby and might want to enjoy it in peace.

Think of us commoners demanding to knkw the baby’s name as a pain-in-arse mother in law

I know that when it's announced I'll just think " oh ok. That's nice. Whatever".

Albert and Arthur are too hideous for words. I am hoping for Philip. The old Philip will pop his clogs soon so that would be nice and thoughtful of the Middletons and Cambridges.

Oh, I know they are entitled to take as long as they need but...YANBU. I keep checking the news!!!! It took me two weeks to name my youngest so not sure why I think it should be released already but, come on peeps, we are waiting!!!

Good lord, you have no right to be raging! They don't have to tell us anything. The poor woman's just given birth, you are not their priority.

I was imagining Kate stamping her feet shouting it’s my BABY and I’m naming him Balonz, I don’t care about your stupid list, he’s a 3rd child.... fortunately hair and makeup still done from the photo shoot so she looks serious and not completely crazy.

It took me over a week to decide with both my children, I'm not even titled. My motivation wasn't to irritate people more to choose a name that suited our babies and we both liked! I think the pp who said something about William huffing off was probably spot on!

I’m sure you’re kidding really but this is just such a weird thing to feel. It took us a week to pick our dd’s name, why would you assume such malicious things about them?!

Also if you think they’re such twats why do you care?

Can’t believe anyone is seriously suggesting it could be Albert..

Whatever name they choose, we'll hear more than enough of it in the years to come, OP.
