I guessed George and won a bet Smile

Royal Baby W&K2 will be James or Elizabeth.

Bue · 15/01/2015 20:42

I also think probably Alice or Arthur.

Oddie · 15/01/2015 20:40

Balonz

Sophronia · 15/01/2015 20:36

I still think Arthur or Alice.

Have any of the pp who are suggesting Prince Albert done a Google image search of 'Prince Albert' Grin

ZebraGiraffe · 15/01/2015 20:11

I expect they will go with something like

Prince Arthur/Albert/Alfred (little Alfie would be sweet)
Princess Alice/Victoria

I checked obsessed I know and there is a Princess Alexandra still alive in the Royal family. It won't be James either due to Viscount Severn (Earl of Wessex's son)

Barbara (Windsor)
Legoland (Windsor)

rockinrobintweet · 14/01/2015 23:32

Princess Ophelia Alice Rose
Princess Gabriella Diane

Prince Alexander Henry
Prince Gregory Charles

I think Kate and William should have a look at the thread.. we've come up with some beautiful Royal namesWink

Luckystar82 · 14/01/2015 16:38

I have heard from a source that it is likely to be called Princess Alice if it's a girl.

Picking a boy's name will be trickier. Perhaps Richard. I don't envy them as they don't have that many decent names that haven't been used to choose from!

ThinkIveBeenHacked · 14/01/2015 13:20

Margaret Alice Elizabeth
Thomas Henry Arthur

Sunnymeg · 14/01/2015 13:15

Princess Matilda Margaret
Prince Albert Arthur Charles

Although I wouldn't be surprised if they gave a girl Frances as a first name with a caveat that she be known by her second name.They won't use Diana but they might be able to get away with her second name.

So something like

Princess Frances Alice Anne to be known as Alice.

EdithWeston · 14/01/2015 06:45

If they want an older Queenly name, not really in use at the moment, then how about Blanche or Berengaria?

LittleBlueHermit · 14/01/2015 05:02

I agree it'll probably be Albert, Victoria or similar.

I'd love it if they chose one of the older royal names for a girl though- Eleanor, Adelaide, Isabella, Matilda, etc.

ZingTheGreat · 14/01/2015 03:37

Victoria or Albert

Guin1 · 14/01/2015 02:07

Victoria Alice Elizabeth
Albert Arthur Philip

BabyX · 14/01/2015 00:08

But they claim they chose George simply because they liked it (without any royal obligation), that tells you their taste. It'll be another safely middle-class choice.

I actually think it'll be another boy.

Prince Arthur.

TheNewStatesman · 13/01/2015 22:57

It's a shame if they HAVE to use names that were previously royal. I mean, all royal names must have had a "first time" to be used, right? Victoria was not a traditional name in the UK until Queen Victoria. It would be nice to see a name that has a bit of a pedigree but is a first time for the royal family, like Rosalind or Antonia or something.

WhereHas1999DissappearedToo · 13/01/2015 22:12

Princess Victoria
Prince Louis

CaulkheadUpNorth · 13/01/2015 22:06

I'm assuming someone has already said Balonz, but if not I'm claiming it.

BatmanLovesBakedBeans · 13/01/2015 22:03

Joffrey Grin

Or Matilda for a girl

CaulkheadUpNorth · 13/01/2015 21:53

It won't be Henry - prince Harry is actually a Henry.

I'm going for Prince John William and Princess Mary Victoria

BabyX · 13/01/2015 21:52

Won't be Grace - Princess Grace too reminiscent of Grace Kelly (that didn't end well) and Zara has Mia Grace doesn't she?

gallicgirl · 13/01/2015 21:52

My money's on Rex.

whistles

or more likely Alice or Louis.

newrecruit · 13/01/2015 21:48

BOF no! I have a Frederick too ConfusedConfusedConfusedConfusedConfusedConfusedConfusedConfused

Skiingmaniac · 13/01/2015 21:48

I think it will be a girl called Grace (possibly with Elizabeth after) Smile
