Wonder what they will call her? Older children are Grace & Arthur, I would imagine it will be something traditional like her siblings.

Baby's

Palamon · 12/07/2022 11:10

Do people really not know who she is?

I think she’s quite well known as Kate’s younger (or possibly older) sister.

I bet she will be back in the gym tomorrow 😆

Booked · 12/07/2022 11:13

It won't be Rose!

MrsRobinsonsHandprints · 12/07/2022 11:17

Tallulah.

The third often gets a different style of name

I know who Pippa Middleton is but I don't know her DHs name, is she changed her name on marriage, if there are any other famous Pippas that the thread could be referring to or who Spencer and Vogue are or what they have to do with Pippa Middleton.

A lot of today's popular culture really isn't on many people's radar.

I think Alice or Sophie

That was my initial thought too!

😅😅😅 I hope not!!! Jeepers, that would not go down well given the recent rumours

I was thinking Alice too but I think it’s a bit too similar to Alizee, James Middleton’s wife

fatlazycow · 12/07/2022 11:37

I think Florence, Emily, Olivia or Ella

balalake · 12/07/2022 11:44

I am just glad a healthy baby has been born. As for names, just have some thought as to how other children will respond, and choose a traditional spelling.

Gingermoth · 12/07/2022 11:46

I'm going for Victoria

SnottyLottie · 12/07/2022 11:50

Final decision: Emma or Isobel

with Catherine or Caroline as a middle

Mailys · 12/07/2022 22:00

Alexandra , with Caroline or Catherine as one of the middle names

Who are Pippa and James Matthews?

I was wondering who they were! Now I know.

No idea what they might call their new baby, hazard a guess it will be something of similar (nice) style and level of popularity.

BernadetteRostankowskiWolowitz · 23/07/2022 22:44

They've gone for Rose according to the DM.

Pretty but dull (but I’m sure MN will go bananas for it being “classic”)

darisdet · 23/07/2022 22:54

Nice name. Can't go wrong with Rose.

I still feel embarrassed that I didn't work out who they were. Pippa should have been obvious, though I have heard of JM's more famous brother as least!

Dic · 23/07/2022 22:55

That's a shock after all the rumours last year.

That's what I thought, it fits perfect with Grace & Arthur but given the rumours I'm not convinced!

Clawdy · 23/07/2022 23:23

What are the rumours??

MrsRobinsonsHandprints · 23/07/2022 23:35

Just read the news and knew you lot would be on this!

Shocked but Rose!

Holidayy · 23/07/2022 23:42

No way.

NanaNelly · 24/07/2022 04:36

Rose is a lovely name.

And a perfect ‘twos up to the ridiculous rumors if people want look at it that way.

That's what I was thinking too. Was it a strategic choice? Obviously they must love the name too

Dic · 24/07/2022 08:49

I don't think anyone would make their baby as a fingers up on behalf of a sibling.
