It's a .................... .

Perhaps not mean, but judgemental, I assume you mean Megan, but actually it could be P .Harry who wants to stick to what is his family tradition & circumstances.
Either way does it really matter?

I know Harry was super excited when he made his announcement, which in some ways was nice to see, but in other ways was very immature, especially for a man in his position.

I was a bit worried when he started saying about how incredible it is for a woman to do this - I thought we might be getting a few words on anatomy or worse , but I also felt that his choice of words that the baby was "to die for" was appalling. As a man he will never die in childbirth but women have since the dawn of time, and still do.

I know he was like an over-excited puppy but someone in his situation who is used to speaking in public should have chosen his words better, IMHO.

Now I suppose we wait for the Hollywood-style photos with stage lighting, etc.

Another big assumption,
Plus isn’t that what a lot of families do, the behaviour is no different except they are expected to share with the public IF they didn’t they would be criticised for that, dammed if they do dammed if they don’t. ?

Bridgeit You misunderstand me .... I wasn't saying Harry should not have made a public announcement.

I remember well that strong feeling for my babies that I would die to keep them safe, healthy and happy. I still would but it doesn’t work that way.

Ahh yes apologies , it was the manner in which he delivered it. I misread you

I reckon Francis might be one of the names- as Diana was Diana Frances, I think!

I reckon Elvis Keanu Buddy! (sorry)

He will be an Earl I believe, name? who knows or cares.At least we wont have to see Megan holding the "bump" any longer,thank goodness.
The photo shoot tomorrow will be well rehearsed.

Oh puleeese! James Hewitt long story, most of which unproven. Anyone can see that Harry is a Spencer and has got his colouring from Diana's side of the family - something conveniently forgotten by the press.
I love James as it was my dads name, but what about Francis? Feminine form one of Diana's middle names and also Harry's other grandmother's name.

I love the Royal Family, and Harry has always been one of my favourites, but I’m just not feeling the love at the moment

How about Henry Ragland Windsor Mountbatten III?

Agree totally with Sparklefizz about the less than tasteful choice of phrase - but at least Harry very plainly didn't get his speech written for him. I think I might let him off just this once.

But, given the close American connection to 'pop'royalty where stars of stage and screen are concerned. he should know there is only one suitable name for this new baby.

Harrison.

I wasn’t suggesting the gossip was true about Hewitt being the daddy, just choosing James would kick it all off again.

The man who asked him about the name of the baby and Harry answered using the man’s name ‘Alan’, Harry has a P.R, named Alan

I’m not a Royalist, but I have to say that Harry’s genuine excitement and pride was quite touching. I’m shocked at some of your comments. I’m sure James is a name that he loathes with all the unfounded rumours about James Hewitt. Harry looks more like Charles than William does. It’s not their fault that the media have made such a ridiculous circus of the baby’s birth. No wonder that they wanted to keep some details private.

What has been kept quiet ? Compare it with the births of William and Kate’s children.

Kate in maternity wing.

Birth announced

Kate leaves hospital holding baby with William , stands for photographs, gets in car. Silence until name is announced.

I wonder how much her outfit will cost for tomorrow’s press conference? Much more than some other new babies families will have to live on for a year I expect.

Now she doesn’t have to hold the bump will she be hanging on to Harry I wonder or will she now be just casting stage managed loving looks ? Gosh I sound really scathing but the way these two are behaving is making me think this way.

Has this one been done yet?

Apparently according to some unknown source or a would-be comedian, Meghan is likely to be a super-trendy Mummy and one of her favourite modern names is Gray.

When her son is given a title he will be Earl Grey.

Day6 I like it ?

One name this new baby will not be called is Thomas after Meghan Markles dad.

And we all know that most Greys in the UK are Grahams.

I do hope Ragland is not one of his names. It's not the nicest surname, unfortunately.

He might be a Frederick - little Freddie - which is boyish and used in royal circles. I know there is one already. How about Patrick? Also dignified and aristocratic? Hugh? David? Rupert? Laurence? Henry, Charles and/or Philip could crop up, or has William bagged all of those already?

Non-starters? Wayne, Derek, Hayden, Jayden, Kai, Brooklyn, Jackson, Barry, Keanu, Harrison, Darren, Moon-Unit..

I am sure Harry is delighted to have a son.

Got it. ‘Earle Spencer’ , after the American Jazz trombonist

Teddy ( after Roosevelt USA ) Albert Edward. A Duke would be appropriate.

How about GRANSNET:-
George, Reginald,Andrew, Norman, Stewart, Neville Edward Trevor ,Windsor.
