People Are Putting Their Money on These Baby Names for Prince Harry and Meghan’s First Born

What’s in a name? A lot, really. It’s easy to say that a rose by any other name would smell as sweet, but would it? Parents often put a lot of time and effort into picking out just the right name for their baby.

If you’re expecting or know someone who is, we can help you come up with some potential names. We have lists for popular names, unusual names (some that were even made up), and names that were once unusual but are going to be popular once again. 

While some people look at baby name books and research each name’s meaning and any famous people with that name, other people make it easier on themselves by choosing a cherished family name.

Do you think Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are looking at baby name books? They are expecting their first born later this year. The prince and his glowing bride have been given suggestion after name suggestion, but according to Meghan, they haven’t picked a name yet.

The couple probably already knows the gender of the baby, so it makes sense that they would narrow down the options in the near future.

While the couple may not have officially picked a name yet, plenty of people are turning to betting sites like Ladbrokes to put money on top contenders like Victoria, Diana and Albert.

Why these names? Victoria because of Queen Victoria and Albert because he was Queen Victoria’s husband. Diana is after Harry’s mother Princess Diana.

These aren’t the only popular contenders. Other popular names include Philip, Alice, Arthur, Alfred, Elizabeth and James. At the bottom of the list there are names like Boris, Donald and Brexit.

If you’re feeling lucky, you can bet on way more than just the baby’s first name. The site is taking bets on the baby’s gender, the day of the week the baby will be born, the time of birth, and even if the baby is actually twins.

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s baby is due this Spring, and while we most likely won’t know the baby’s name until after he or she is born, it certainly is fun to think about baby names.
