It's a girl.

Congratulations to both. Look forward to finding out what they've named her!

GrandFATHER, not mother! Quite a strong chance of Sarah being a middle name, I think!

Interesting that it was announced two days after the birth. I saw reports she’s in hospital but no news that she had already given birth.

September. Or Autumn if that's not too like August.

Alice or Alexandra with Elizabeth as a middle name?

Isabella?

Lilibetta made me laugh.
I'll go for Laura.

Chardonnay Victoria would be perfect.

I’m going for Francesca.

I don't think they made any announcements about labour

Just one of the red tops reporting that Prince Andrew had interrupted his annual holiday to Balmoral to visit his daughter in hospital. And everyone guessed it was baby related, which it proved to be.

Sophia? Or maybe too close to Sophie...

@TartanJumper

Andrea would be a boy's name in Italy!

Didn't know that! Erm... Andrewaha? Drew? (for clarity I don't think this child will bear it's maternal grandmothers name)

It's also a girl's name these days. I teach 4 female Andreas and 3 males. The trend has definitely shifted in the last decade or so. I teach 14-19 year olds and my class of 18-19 year olds 3 years ago had six Andreas (all male)

@TroysMammy

Victoria Filippa.

Hopefully the parents or the registrar will know how spell the name!

Awww that's lovely news.

Laughed out loud at Lilibetta.

I vote for Phillipa Sarah Elizabeth

I have to say I love Harry's cousins..........................

All the criticism that was waged against him and his wife, they prove it all to be nonsense. Showing up all the hypocrisy of the British media.

Initially, Eugenie showed us pics of limbs of the baby, just like baby Archie.
This little one was born on Saturday, and Bea did not announce till a few days later.

Well done.

And Sante to the newborn ! 🥂

Seeing as it was nearly midnight, I think they can be forgiven for not announcing Saturday. It was announced 36hrs after...

@sirgawain how snide. That would be the Italian version given the father is Italian.

@ChardonnaysPetDragon

Chardonnay Victoria would be perfect.

Why not? Most of her other grandchildren have 'common' names!

This one will probably be Tracey Sharon.

I'm kinda hoping for a name with a bit more class than Lilibet, anyway.

Felicita

Ernestina, to be known as Tina.
they seem to go for european sounding names.

And baby Archie was announced 8hrs later, and a big deal was made out of it.....

Bloody hell - does everything have to turn into a Meghan and Harry thread?!!!!

Apparently Florence is the favourite at William Hill

Felicia

It hasn't thought has it.

PS : yes, people will always mention the incongruent reporting of the different members.

MN users are some of the biggest critics on whatever H&M do, so sometimes it’s necessary to bring the hypocrisy to their attention.
