Guesses for the new royal baby boy?

Albert?
Arthur?

@KimchiLaLa

Who cares? Weird that she had a public wedding, weird that his company sent out an email making sure that they name checked the company following the birth.

@KimchiLaLa Clearly I don’t follow their lives as much as you do because I had no clue about what his company does or doesn’t do, especially this incident with the email you are referring to, the first time I’ve heard of it is from you

It's been the lead on The Mail (yes the Mail!) and a few other outlets, impossible to miss it.

I manage to miss The Daily Mail entirely.

August Philip Hawke Brooksbank.

Poor child.

@ZoyaTheDestroyer

August Philip Hawke Brooksbank.

Not a fan, but I guess the world would be boring if we all liked the same things.

I do love the inclusion of Philip though.

Makes me think Gussie Fink-Nottle. I may have misremembered that character name though!

You’ve remembered it correctly! I think he was an Augustus.

As a name, is it pronounced au-GUST, like the adjective?

I think Augustus flows better but probably just because I'm used to it.
( In an Augustus Caesar way not like "that guy Augustus down the road"!😄)

Nice that they have included Philip, but I don't like the rest of it. I see they have not included Stamp which apparently is a Brooksbank family name, so a snub to his family history.

Oh dear. I thought that was another guess at first! Still, Gus is a cute nickname.

I would be slightly unsure as to pronunciation.

So like the month? like the adjective? in a quasi German way saying "Ow" at the start?

It would seem too much to wade in with Gus. I'd maybe go with Prince.😄

Very handsome! Personally, I like it a lot.

Isn't someone's child called Autumn? (Royal family member rather than in the whole world). If so, bit similar I think.

In my mind if you want to call your child August you should be aiming for an appropriate due date. As far as I am concerned this child is called February.

Because all the best people are born in February.

I did momentarily ask myself what month we are in.

Lockdown effect.

I quite like it

@Fascinationends you’re thinking of Peter Phillips’s ex-wife.

Poor baby - why land him with a nightmare name.

Ah ok, thank you Zoya.

It's not nice of me I know, but I proper laughed at the name they have chosen.

@Parker231

He’s already got the nightmare Grandfather and Grandmother, why not go for a hat trick?

Maybe they're fans of 'Ride upon the storm'.
