Royal Baby Name [Just for fun!]

[Carly]

My husband loves the name James for our bub if it's a boy (I'm not won over). He might change his mind if the royal bub is named this as he hates popular or fashionable names!

Prince George Alexander Louis

THE name George - chosen for the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge's baby son - is synonymous with British kings.
It's come to represent the continuity of the monarchy and remained the bookmakers' favourite in the name-guessing stakes from the moment Kate's pregnancy was announced.
Six King Georges have worn the crown throughout history since the German-born George I, the first Hanoverian king of Great Britain, acceded to the throne in 1714.
The first name of the last King George - George VI - was actually Albert and he was known to his family as Bertie, but he selected George - his fourth name - to use as Sovereign.
He was the much-loved father of the present Queen and the new Prince George of Cambridge's great-great grandfather.
George VI chose George in honour of his father George V and to create the impression of stability after the scandal caused by the abdication of his brother Edward VIII.
George is also the fourth name of the Prince of Wales - the baby's grandfather. Even Edward VIII had George among his seven names.

The name means farmer or earth worker. It was the 12th most popular name for boys born in England and Wales in 2011.
St George, a fourth-century Christian martyr, is the patron Saint of England and represents honour, bravery and gallantry. The legend of George slaying a dragon and rescuing an innocent maiden is medieval.
There has only been one other Prince of Cambridge and he was also called George.
The first Prince George of Cambridge was a grandson of George III and the only son of Prince Adolphus Frederick, the 1st Duke of Cambridge.

I think it's lovely. Very traditional. Although I too wish they used spencer it would have been a lovely nod to his mum. Although now I only hoe they have a girl next and call her peppa :-p

I like George.

I'll be crossing it off our list though.

I don't like George as a name that much but I don't mind it and I think it's an understandable choice. Spencer seems like a fairly modern name to me and I can't see them going for it. They seem fairly traditional. Just cause your parent passes away doesn't mean you need to use a name for them, you know? I also notice they don't seem to have a name that represents Kate's side of the family. To me, this name is all about this little boy and the fact that he is heir to the throne.

I was kind of hoping that they would break from tradition. I'm just happy he now has a name! I'm sure there will be lots of little George's in the next few years
