Lilibet Diana Mountbatten-Windsor

[WhiskyIrnBru]

Harry and Megan have just announced their new baby's name.

What's everyone's thoughts?

Waiting for deletion message.

By that I mean using the queen's nickname not the use of Diana

Wasn't Lillibet Philip's pet name for the Queen. It feels... wrong.

Diana was inevitable.

It’s not a name though - the queens pet name. Maybe trying to appease grandma?

I think its quite attention seeking to use a family pet name and not her actual proper name

Wants to make sure she doesn't strip the duchess titles and cut him out of her will. What a chap!

Wtaf?

My sisters pet name was Bill...

I feel sorry for Doria they could have honoured her somewhere too

Lovely name but they could’ve given her the most beautiful name ever and people would’ve found a reason to criticise.

Stimmt!

I think its quite attention seeking to use a family pet name and not her actual proper name

The reaching people do just to criticise

Beautiful names. Love Lilibet more than Elizabeth

Exactly

Congratulations to the both on the birth of a lively daughter.

But why name after someone you have been attacking repeatedly either directly or indirectly?

More attention seeking?

It should be Lilibet with only one L in the middle, that’s how the Queen spelt it.

Lili for short apparently, goes well with Archie.

Lilibet is a bit naff as a given name. However Archie and Lili (as they have announced she’ll be known) work well as sibling names.

I'm just going to say congratulations on a safe arrival, lovely news!

Lillibet is fine for a child, but not for an adult imo.
Prefer Lily Diana.

It’s quite sweet

I did kind of hope for Doria. But I guess they would also want to use Diana and that wouldn’t sound right.

Lilibet ? Blimey the cheek of that. It is the Queen’s pet name.

What a lovely name and a such nice way to honour the queen........an even better way to honour the queen would've been NOT slag off her family in the media 🤔

I personally don’t like Lilibet. But I was reluctant to say that because I don’t want to be accused of being someone who was going to dislike the name whatever it was. Which really isn’t the case.
I really like Lili though.
