The royal couple is expecting. Got a name you'd like to suggest?

In the most exciting moment for royal-watchers and crown enthusiasts since Prince William and Kate Middleton said "I do," the British royal family has announced that the young royal couple is expecting their first child.
After keeping a relatively low profile since her wedding to William in April 2011, Kate -- properly known now as Catherine, Duchess of Cambridge -- is pregnant. And the world is buzzing with the news.
"The Queen, the Duke of Edinburgh, the Prince of Wales, the Duchess of Cornwall and Prince Harry and members of both families are delighted with the news," reads a statement by the Palace.
Now on to the fun-yet-difficult part, picking baby names. What do you think they should name their baby? Have any suggestions for a boy or girl name?
The most popular names for Bay State girl babies are Sophia, Olivia, Isabella, Emma and Ava. Hmm, Isabella doesn't sound like a Queen of the United Kingdom, does it?
Here in Massachusetts the most popular name for boys does sound a bit more the part: William. Behind that are: Benjamin, Jacob, Michael and Ryan.
What's your naming suggestion to the royal couple? Discuss in the comments below. Who knows, maybe William and Kate read Patch.

I can assure you William and Kate don't read the Patch.
So I won't be suggesting any names. If any local royalty, like the unofficial mayor of North Andover, need baby name suggestions or if any local dogs need names, let me know.

Why won't you feed my egomaniacal delusion that I know what they should name their baby?

Is their unofficial "last name" still Tudor? If so, I suggest the baby's first name be Tooter...

Nikki — The family name is Windsor. Elizabeth I was the last Tudor monarch.
I'd suggest George Philip Charles Andrew Patrick Otto William Augustus, if it's a boy, and Elizabeth Mary Victoria Charlotte Anne Diana Margaret Eleanor, if it's a girl. (They tend to have multiple middle names.)

Thanks for the info, Joe. Somehow, Tooter Windsor doesn't have the same ring to it...

HA! These are funny! So much more pleasant to get chuckles than to argue over politics, which isn't going to make a damn bit of difference.
