To think please not Arthur

[DaveswifeDawn]

It's tipped to be the new prince's name. I know we're all supposed to love old men's names but Arthur is just too awful.

Come on Kate & Will - you know you want to call him Milo or Ryan. Just do it!

Why not Stephen?

I hope it is Arthur, it's a beautiful name and now popular among little ones so is losing its 'old man' link gradually!

You will probably be safe as it's George's middle name!

I think we will have to, but it will look like we've copied them like lunatic fans, and I am worried about the name increasing in popularity. Ha, I guess you aren't keen on cricket anymore then!

I also really hope they don't call him Arthur

I do not want our 6mo ds to share his class with 6 others with the same name and for everyone to think we named ours after theirs!!

Arthur is my dogs name! (He's a lurcher)

I hadn’t thought of Arthur, but I think it’d be a good fit.

It has to be Elvis ........buff said !!

How long will we have to wait for the ruddy name?

Nuff (stupid autocorrect)

Apparently Prince Charles' name wasn't released for a month after he was born...

Not keen on Arthur either, sounds fuddy duddy! Henry is a nice name. Such a shame they didn't call George something else otherwise how perfect would that have been on St George's day!

@EthelFleda My son George was 4 months when HRH was born, after the initial flurry of "oh like the Prince?" when he was introduced to new people, no one mentioned it again, and he is the only George in his nursery class. I wouldn't worry.

I like Arthur; it's our youngest's middle name.

I think Arthur is a good name. I think we would get used to it. Look at the rise of Stanley.

Well as long as it isn't Alfred (apologies to Alfred fans). Something traditional but a bit more sexy would be a nice change for the royals. I personally have been liking "Theodore" which can be shortened to Theo.
I actually know two Theodores but they're American and go by "Ted" (why would call yourself Ted when you could call yourself Theo!!).

Charles or Brian

Nigel!!

Brian Nigel Kevin - I think we have a winner!

@Aprilmightbemynewname

The smart money is on Donald.

Norman or Malcom or Derek. Long overdue.

Or ‘of Darkness’

I can’t name the PP who says Victor is a great name.

I know a little Victor , he is beyond gorgeous and his older brother has a terrific name as well.

Prince .... ?
