I hope they follow the Kardashian trend and call him something outrageous, like Prince, or Jesus.

Prince Prince Tyler Jimbob Windsor

I hope it's Arthur!

DH suggested Ethelbert

James Charles Henry Windsor

They go by the surname Cambridge, not Windsor.

It won't be James as there is a cousin James 11th in line to the throne. They don't tend to use 'current' royal names. It could be Albert.

Bramble71 · 23/04/2018 14:55

I'm betting on Philip.

RoseWhiteTips · 23/04/2018 14:59

Hope it’s not Albert or Alfred. Philip, perhaps? Alexander is one of the loveliest names - that one would be perfect.

RoseWhiteTips · 23/04/2018 15:01

Unlikely to be Henry. That is Harry’s proper name. Meghan will be possessive about it...

drinkingwinefeelingfine · 23/04/2018 15:06

@SaucyJane can you explain that to me please? About a princess not being displaced?

I'm not in Britain so don't really understand, although I do like to read about it!

bluebeau · 23/04/2018 15:09

dave or bruce pls

Housewife2010 · 23/04/2018 15:10

Unlikely to be Alexander - that is one of George's names (although Prince Andrew does have Edward as one of his names so that didn't bother the Queen).

BrashCandicoot · 23/04/2018 15:10

That is Harry’s proper name. Meghan will be possessive about it... Grin I take it you're a close personal friend?

RoseWhiteTips · 23/04/2018 15:10

The Queen changed the line of succession rules recently. This mean that Princess Charlotte keeps her present place at 4th - and the new brother is 5th. He does not displace her.

BrashCandicoot · 23/04/2018 15:11

Until the law was changed when Princess Charlotte was due, boys took preference over girls in the line of succession, so if that law hadn't been changed Charlotte would have been bumped down a notch in the line of succession in favour of her newborn brother.

LittleLionMansMummy · 23/04/2018 15:16

Colin. We need a Colin.

MissEliza · 23/04/2018 15:27

How about a good strong Scottish name like Duncan?! Grin

LovelySouffle · 23/04/2018 15:29

May as well just accept our lot and call it Prince Vladimir.

Mammyloveswine · 23/04/2018 15:31

Balonz Grin

Its lovely news!:8 pound 7... Kate has small bumps and big babies like me! I too want a third...

LakieLady · 23/04/2018 15:36

Cosmo. Prince Cosmo would be a wonderfully cool name.

Grilledaubergines · 23/04/2018 15:40

I think he’s going to be an Albert.

Won’t be Henry, although I’m sure Harry would be delighted! Doubt it’ll be James, Edward or Charles etc. But you never know. Probably very annoying that they seem to be restricted in terms of tradition.

ethelfleda · 23/04/2018 15:54

My 6mo DS' name is one of the favourites. I really hope they don't pick it!! Can't be doing with 5 other boys in his class with the same name and everyone thinking I named DS after the Prince when it was clearly the other way around Grin

SilverySurfer · 23/04/2018 15:58

I was hoping they would name him Ichabod but they won't listen to reason Grin

drinkingwinefeelingfine · 23/04/2018 15:59

Thank you @RoseWhiteTips and @BrashCandicoot Smile
I had no idea! Good old Liz

evilharpy · 23/04/2018 16:02
