It’s…a little complicated.
Naming a baby is hard enough even when the whole world won’t have an opinion on it—and naming ababy kicks the difficulty level up yet another notch. As with many parts of royal life, there is protocol around naming of royal babies, whichFirst up, a very unique characteristic of royal baby names? Most don’t have a surname. Take, for example, the trio we like to call “the Cambridge kids”—Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis—who technically have no ironclad last name.
Next up: royal babies, especially those at the top of the line of succession, typically have at least three names. The Queen’s full name is Elizabeth Alexandra Mary, Charles’ is Charles Philip Arthur George, William’s is William Arthur Philip Louis, and Harry’s is Henry Charles Albert David. This trend continues into the next generation with George Alexander Louis, Charlotte Elizabeth Diana, and Louis Arthur Charles.
Finally, when it comes to adding a title to a royal baby’s name, those titles are bestowed by Her Majesty. “While the Queen does not decide the baby’s name, nor does the decision require her approval, it is up to the monarch to bestow a title on the child if she decides,” the outlet reports. Currently, all royal grandchildren of the monarch carry titles, but when it comes to the great-grandchildren of the monarch, only the children of the heir receive titles.
