Boris Johnson and his wife Carrie have revealed the name of their second child as Romy Iris Charlotte Johnson.

Lovely photo and makes a change from presents under the tree.

LOL, what is this definitely 'news' - really?

Yes really, definitely ‘news’ as people were having a guessing game wondering what the little Johnson baby was going to be called.

Yes, thanks Urmstongran for the News. Some of these News threads are proving very popular.

Pretty names. Have they announced the birth weight? She looks a good size.

She looks absolutely beautiful. Nothing at all like Boris, so perhaps more like Carrie. My little granddaughter’s middle name is Iris. She was very much a rainbow baby, in fact both her and her twin were rainbow babies, and absolutely adored, just as I hope and am sure that this baby will be.

Pretty names, pretty baby and how nice to have a proper photo not a glimpse of a hand or foot.

I love these names and the combination. Yes a very lovely baby. Wilfred looks sweet too.

lavenderzen Thu 16-Dec-21 17:52:18

What lovely names. I send them all very best wishes.

Like the names and it’s a lovely photo.

Cute baby, lovely picture with her brother I like her names
However we still have not seen any picture of Little Lillibet? Or have I missed it?

Unlike her brother - so cute

Very mean and uncalled for.

Pretty sure atqui was talking about the hair colour
Bad luck Atqui being jumped on

I really like those names for their new baby. Lovely.

SueDonim Thu 16-Dec-21 22:33:15

I like Romy. I know a grown up Romy, she’s Dutch and I think the name has Germanic origins.

There’s an Iris in one of my GC’s classes. Her parents changed her name from their original choice, Isis. That must have been a very upsetting decisions to have to take. sad

I like the names very much.

Zoejory Thu 16-Dec-21 22:40:59

I think Wilf had dark hair when he was born.

I won't be surprised if this little one goes on to develop the fabulous hair.

MayBeMaw Thu 16-Dec-21 23:53:56

Lovely! I like Romy - but might be biased as my baby grandson is Remy!

Rosie51 Fri 17-Dec-21 00:37:01

Aww she's beautiful! I wonder if she will keep her dark hair or turn blonde. Either way she has a lovely full head of hair.

Rosie51 Fri 17-Dec-21 00:38:23

Forgot to say, I really like her name, but would have put Iris as her first name if I was her mother smile

One of my granddaughters is an Iris she is now a teenager into black eyeliner and Doc Martens. She was a cute baby and is still lovely.

vegansrock Fri 17-Dec-21 06:26:54

BTW if Johnson was still a mediocre journo and not in politics this would not be “news” so definitely a link with politics,

We haven’t seen proper photos of Zara Tindall’s baby either or Princess Beatrice’s baby. In fact there haven’t even been any photos of the double baptism! Maybe they’ve taken a leaf out of Harry and Meghan’s book and decided to keep some things private. As much as some people want to see photos of Royal babies, surely it is up to the parents and not the tabloid munching masses?
