So who wants to take a punt on what the little prince's name will be?
I'm thinking most likely something traditional like Edward or George. Maybe William Jr.
But maybe they'll forego tradition. Prince Hayden sounds lovely ;)

Kevin or Walter
HRH Prince Waitforit the Duke of Nukem.
Jaxon
Bruce
Mortimer
Oscar Phillip Quentin Russell Samson
Albert Busby Clifford Duncan Edgar
You cant beat the Danish Prince Vince though ;)
Prince darrel or maybe bruce?
As long as they don't name him Lachlan then my Lachlan will be happy. I haven't told him James (Lach's middle name) is a contender LOL.
I know I just read about James being an option...
Is it wrong to hope it's not because DH and I were considering it as an option??
It's not wrong at all :) What ever they choose will suddenly become VERY popular.
I really don't understand why people name their child "after" someone like that. To suddenly have a lot of little James's running around just because that's what the price is called doesn't make sense to me!
Apparently there are a lot of babies in the world who are remaining unnamed until the little prince's name is known.
It is strange, Teeki. And it happens with spellings too. I know of more than one Aaliyah after the singer.
:rofl: L&B
I'd only do that so that I didn't get the same name, but I really doubt they'd go with anything we've chosen. Too bad if his name doesn't get announced until Christening weeks later like in Denmark!
Frederick George Henry Ivan James
Kevin Liam Mark Noel Orson
(because they are such big Oasis fans ;) )
John Richard Paul George

TOP TEN BETTED BOY NAMES
James (2/1)
George (5/1)
Henry (5/1)
Arthur (20/1)
Louis (25/1)
Albert (40/1)
Alexander (40/1)
Benjamin (40/1)
David (40/1)
Philip (40/1)
Isn't Henry Harry's proper name? It would be a bit odd if they called him that IMO.
I like some of them - Louis, Alexander, Benjamin, David
Caspian - Prince Caspian from Narnia
Michael - after the prince of pop
Charming :lol: :hide:
The palce has announced that it will be named..........

Sometime.
I really didn't think they would choose a weird name like that. Poor kid :(
I'm curious as to why people are waiting to name their babies so it can be after the little prince... Personally I wouldn't want my baby to have the same name as him (unless it were by coincidence)
Yep. Henry is Harry's real name, so highly doubt they'll go with that. Henry Charles Albert David are all of his names LOL. William is William Arthur Philip Louis.
The baby already has a Wiki page - Son of the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Maybe they are waiting so they can be sure they are using a different name.
I just hope they don't use either of the names we've picked for this bub - both first and middle are possible because they're traditional-ish :-/
I don't mind what they call their son, but I really hope and wish the don't use any of the names on the gamblers list.
I know quite a few people who were named after William and Harry, apparently it was in the in thing to do. On the other hand I'm still peeved that a famous family named their daughter after ours, terribly uncool! :lol:
Prince spencer as in Dianna spencer??
I wonder if richard is possable... That could be interesting in later life....
Lol, we have a guy come into work named R.ichard P.uller, and yes he does use a four letter nickname! Two brothers that come in are called A.ndrew and P.eter Ness. When you use just their first initials and last name it's interesting lol.:
:rofl: that is the best thing I've heard today!:
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 :asleep:

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 ;)
I wanted to call our Alex 'George' :)
Right on trend Hestia :)
I like his name, so many parents are already going back to those type of names that if they were anyone else noone would blink an eyelid at calling him George. Considering he has three names and they tend to get a lot more they could have put in something for the Spencer side and/or Kates side, but why? I don't think a name needs to include a lot of family references and it sounds lovely as it is.
I am glad though that they didn't choose any of our names!
