Davey Jones' Locker 1,324 Posted July 14, 2013 I am guessing the names Mel, Greig, Michael and Christian won't be too high on Kate's picklist.... I wouldn't be so sure, her dad's name is Michael Maybe her dad should give her a prank call. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CarolAnn 926 Posted July 15, 2013 The baby will be born someday, sometime, somewhere, and be given some name. It will be a baby. You heard it hear first from my astounding Klonopin-frazzled brain. In the meantime, Florida is screwed, Egypt is burning, some stupid kid from television died and all my nieces are wearing black and beating their breasts, a bunch of small towns are getting blown sky high and I'm tired of it all. I am now going to mourn my dog. Don't call me. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bibliogryphon 9,592 Posted July 15, 2013 On the names front I think Diana won't be the first name but will be in there somewhere. Boys Edward is out because of Ed VIII. I am thinking George. I discount Louis because of associations with the beheaded line of French monarchs. How about throwing one to all the seventies rockers out there and calling him Crimson. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
the_engineer 1,415 Posted July 15, 2013 i think the name will be Sophie even if its a boy haha . I think its the world's worst kept secret its a girl. 'Sophie Diana' i'm thinking the name will be. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Toast 16,156 Posted July 15, 2013 Boys Edward is out because of Ed VIII. They don't think like that. One of the Queen's sons is Edward, innit. Ed VIII was called David within the family, and that didn't stop Princess Margaret naming her son David. I am thinking George. That is a likely choice but would be a very dull one. I discount Louis because of associations with the beheaded line of French monarchs. You would think so, but the Queen named her eldest after an English beheaded monarch.

Toast 16,156 Posted July 15, 2013 I think its the world's worst kept secret its a girl. What makes you think that? If it's because Kate is supposed to have let slip the word 'daughter' while on a walkabout, it's not true. Some punter videoed the whole exchange, and Kate said nothing of the sort. I wouldn't read anything into the blue pram either. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I will guess victor or Henry if its a boy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rotten Ali 600 Posted July 15, 2013 <----- I'll have a punt on the 20th July. Can't go on beyond about the 25th or else they are bound to induce the birth on the basis she said mid July, and that's more or less 10 days past that date. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Boudicca 702 Posted July 17, 2013 Uncle Edward's wife is Sophie so I doubt it'll be that. Weight? Hard to guess since we don't know how many weeks it'll be when born. Cost? Might be better to not think about that. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Davey Jones' Locker 1,324 Posted July 17, 2013 If it is a girl, a nice touch would be to give her Jacintha as one of her middle names, in memory of the nurse who committed suicide. Doubt they'd ever do that, though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Toast 16,156 Posted July 18, 2013 Still contemplating the odds re names and tempted by Albert at 50/1. But Prince Albert, nudge nudge - would HM advise against that? in the same way she allegedly put Andy & Fergie off Annabel because of the nightclub.
