Commented Feb 15, 2021 on My Top Guesses Baby Name for Princess Eugenie's Son at British Baby Names

Indeed, but I think he goes exclusively by "Wolfie" so a little Kit would be okay IMHO. I think Frederick is such a perfect, underused royal name! The only reason I didn't include it was because of Lord Fredrick Windsor. He's Eugenie's 2nd Cousin once removed, but his daughter Maud was one of her bridesmaids so I assume they are close enough for her not to use it.

I never suggested Oliver for the Cambridge children for this reason, but I think Eugenie's son is sufficiently removed from the succession that it wouldn't matter so much.

My Top Guesses Baby Name for Princess Eugenie's Son

There's a new royal baby! Yesterday, it was announced that Princess Eugenie had given birth that morning to a baby boy. With no announcement on the name just yet, let's have a go speculating. As a minor royal, the field is wide open. Will they go for a royal traditional... Continue reading

Commented Jan 10, 2021 on Christmas Name Advent - Day 25 at British Baby Names

I think you are right about the more exotic vowel-heavy names. And word combos like Ivy-Winter and Summer-Blossom I think.

Commented Jan 10, 2021 on Hyphen Names 2011 at British Baby Names

There is one in the pipe line. It involves searching through all the births for England and Wales in that year, however, so it can literally take weeks and weeks to compile.
