Now that the fresh Prince has been born, I see the bookies are offering odds on favourite names.

I thought we could have a bit of fun with suggestions as to the least likely name for the royal bairn.....

I'm happy to offer Osama Bin Windsor as a starter.

Any takers ?

Orville - they would never allow us to paint him green and teach him to fly.

Tyler would be good after what social snob Katie Hopkins had to say about children's names on Good Morning Britain. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=edZjdgU0asM&feature=player_embedded

Indeed.

What does she have to be snobbish about? She's stupid, ugly, obnoxious, hypocritical, and she has a big nose!

I think Kevin would be a good name for a king.

What a terribly stuck up and insufferable person she is and as for poor Poppy, India and Maximilion I only hope they have some Tylers, Chardonnays, and chantelles in their lives because otherwise they will grow up to be the same insufferable prig their mother appears to be. Inane nonsense!

A book I read called Freakonomics (http://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/0141019018) actually touched on the whole naming thing, granted it from a US standpoint and using 'black' names but it was still pretty interesting. They kind of touch on some of it on the companion website (http://www.freakonomics.com/tag/baby-names/) but I do recommend the book. The tag line for it is 'A Rogue Economist Explores the Hidden Side of Everything'

It's not the child's fault what the parents have chosen to name them so they shouldn't be ostracised because of their name, however I do wonder sometimes what the parents were thinking when they picked the names. My nieces have kids called Fynly, Harley, Piper, Pixye-Bella, Lilly-Shae and Tallulah Rose. Sometimes it best to keep schtum.

I rather hope that Prince George also has friends with names like Tyler, Chardonnay and Chantal - even pixye-bella and Lilly-Shae too Jox. I picked an unusual name for my wee girl - she is called Fianna-Rose so I would hope that she wouldnt meet the criteria for being a suitable playmate for India or Poppy. I would hate to expose her to that stupid woman's snobbery. Phillip Schofield's face WAS a picture though lol

In some counties children can sue their parents upon reaching adulthood for distress caused a name.

I think they missed a sponsorship opportunity though, could have called the kid Wonga or MoneySupermarket or something.
