The royal baby’s name has yet to be revealed by parents Prince William and Kate Middleton, and it could be a while before we find out.
And who can blame Will and Kate for keeping their baby's name to themselves for a little bit? The pressure to pick a royal name can be intense, as especially since it will become a part of history and a household name for the next century or so.
A lot is riding on the Prince of Cambridge’s given names for some commoners as well. The royal birth stirred up quite the baby name betting frenzy — regal choices George and James are currently the frontrunners. And no doubt we’ll see many new parents copying the Duke and Duchess's choice.
Most expect the name to honour tradition and “make the right nod to the right people,” Pauline Maclaran, co-author of the up-coming book 'Royal Fever: The British Monarchy in Consumer Culture,' told the Associated Press. And royals from other countries often do the same, according to Nameberry.com.
While we wait for the big announcement, have a look back at a few more royals and their names.
