    Coverage and hysteria? Where? Outside of the media, I don't think anybody cares.

    dont comment then and more to the point don't read a thread entitled Royal Baby! why spend time on things you don't care about??

    Amen to that.

    And one day, like it or not, this baby will be the monarch of the United Kingdom and the Commonwealth. So it is a big 'thing'.

    I put a bet on 'boy' and either 'George' or 'Henry'.

    They tend to stick to the same group of names and they've not had one of those in a few generations. :)

    errr what about prince Harry? Harry's a diminutive form of Henry, when he was born he was named Henry, and they shortened it to Harry. (see: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prince_Harry_of_Wales )

    They've had too many King Henry's though. He'd be King Henry IX. Henry the ninth.... kind of has a ring to it though...

    They need a new name. There's only been one King Steven so far, and only one John, and only one Phillip. Or something totally new and off the wall like King Aragorn or King Anakin (just because it would be really cool to have a monarch named after Darth Vader..... but I think Aragorn would be a more fitting name for a king)

    I don't think that fetus wants to come out because of the paparazzi. He/she is going to stay in Kate forever and ever. She'll be an old lady with an adult fetus in her body.

    /end snark.

    I think the baby is something positive to talk about, and why not? There is enough bad stuff going on.

    Anyway my husband said if it's a girl it will have have one of the Queens middle names. Also for a boy George. I really like the name George. I thought of Arthur, but read somewhere William, is an Arthur. They have so many names in their names it's crazy. If they go with Victoria, I like that for personal reasons.

    I kind of don't care, but at the same time, I wish them all the best and look forward to the good news .

    bit surprised no body has commented today..... baby will be here soon!
  • I am so hoping it's a girl. Britain functions better under a queen. And I hope they name her Xena, because I could die happy after being a subject of Queen Xena. :drinker:

    Edit: I know this absolutely won't happen and I haz sad over it. :-( I hope they name her Victoria.
  • Ooooh, just had a look at the news. Kate is in labour! Unless she's cursed with a long labour our future monarch will be born today. ^_^

    A king Arthur would be great :happy:

    Can I be perverse and suggest another King Cnut? If only for the potential typos....? :drinker:

    Yes. Will have it's whole life planned out for it. Will be told what to do, where to go, what to wear, what to say. Will be forced into the Royal way of life whether they want it or not.

    Not sure what the name will be, however my guess as to gender: a Girl, and she truly will be Daddy's Little Girl......

    I think they will make wonderful parents and I don't think have all those nanny's Kate will do a lot of the raising herself that is the way she strikes me....

    Best of Luck to the both of them!!

    I think they are a sweet couple and wish them a healthy, happy baby. But I like Harry best of all, he's such a riot!

    I'll never understand people that post on a thread just to be negative, if you have no interest why take the time to read and/or post things?

    I'm hoping they have a girl and that she has Diana somewhere in her name. As slight as Kate is, here's hoping she's a small baby :-)
