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!

I'd like a Robert.

As long as it's not Prince Albert.

Im sure it will be down Alexander route

I am sure Charlotte will love having a db with the same name as Peppa's!!

Alexander.

Australia's High Commissioner to the United Kingdom, Alexander Downer, suggested to Prince William he should call the boy Alexander during an Anzac Day service at Westminster Abbey
'Have you thought about the name Alexander for him?' the former foreign minister asked.

...Prince Williams appeared keen on the idea.

'Well, it's funny you should say that. It's a good name,' he said.

Minisoksmakehardwork Beat me to it- Alfred or Alfie it’s still the same name; if they change it we’ll never knowing course but I’d put money on it if there was a way to know the truth

I very much doubt that Alfie was ever in the running.

I imagine there will be an announcement today, perhaps after Prince Charles has been for a first visit?

Alexander seems to be the rumour on line.

After Alexander Armstrong. Apparently Kate is a MASSIVE Pointless fan.

George is George Alexander Louis.

I don't think they'll use Alexander again.

Does Kate know that Tuvalu used to be a pointless answer back in the day to country questions?

They can use Alexander again if they want. Just as Edward was reused, having also been one of Prince Andrew’s middle names.

And King Arthur wasn't even real, although I think it's one of Prince Charles's names?

Arthur is among the middle names of both Prince Charles and Prince William.

Going to be announced soon {terribly over invested}

I'm going to guess Frederick Arthur Phillip

Exactly - those names pop up as middle names in the new prince’s family.
Of course Alexander can be chosen as a first name. I hope it is.

Breaking news: William is to be Harry’s best man!

They’re teasing us now.

Alexander Phillip Michael - covers it all. ( dont know of course)

I don’t think it will be James or Philip.

I can’t seem them using a name that George already has, the only reason people are talking about it so much is due to an informal comment William made. Do you really think he’d give the game away as easily as that?
And Arthur? Possibly but I just can’t imagine it for some reason! Prince Ar-fuh!

Gah that should have read I THINK it will be James or Philip! (Not I don’t think)

Not had my coffee yet! 😂

Everyone said Charlotte would be
Elizabeth and she wasn't. No one can
predict.

Yes they can........ Charlotte was the second favourite!

the only reason people are talking about it so much is due to an informal comment William made

He commented on Jerry as well and no-one is suggesting that seriously.

Pleeease not Alexander. DS2 due in 4 weeks and that's the only name we both agree on! I don't want a royal surge/people thinking we blindly copied.
