Well...if Anita does...it wil not be a full cousin voor CC...
Like Lucas and Samuel he (or she) is not directly related to him...

congratulations to the Parents and the big sister Luana.
I never heard this name before but I like it.

[princess leonor]

Congratulations! Happy to know the child is healthy. I don't like the name at all though :(

CONGRATULATIONS to the family:)

Congrats! I love the name. Since they're not going to be queens or even princesses, I think Luana and Zaria are quite nice sounding. I especially love Nicoline.

To morhange, its Joanna Zaria and not Zaria Joanna because its family tradition to be called by the second name, like Amalia and WA, I suppose.

Good news,Best Wishes to the whole family!

[Oppie]

aww I love Joanna it's a nice name. How do you prononce Zaria ?

[Amélie 04]

Congratulation to the parents and little countess Luana :)

[Lucidu]

Congratulations to the family:)

Nice! But I think Luana and Joanna would have fit better together... but I guess Zaria is unique and I like it.

loverly news! congratulations to the family! poor claus casimir, is the only boy in the royal family!

[LaChicaMadrilena]

Congratulations to Mabel, Friso, big sister Luana and grandmother Beatrix!!!:):):)

Two adorable little grand-daughters in such a short period of time!!!
I love Joanna and Nicoline, but I will have to get used to Zaria. They love exotic names, anyway

Anyway, I'm not very good in guessing the sex of future babies. I thought Luana will have a brother. I was wrong with Mary, Letizia and M-M:( I was right only in Infanta Cristina's case, but it was obvious that she will have a girl after three boys

[Danielane]

Congratulations to the couple!

It seems Zaria is the shortened version of a Russian (origin hebraic) male name.

[elenaris]

What a lovely family and great news!

I really don't like the names. They are not in the tradition of the Dutch royal house and when I first heard Zaria I thought it was a mistake and they meant Maria!
But my congratulations to the parents! I think Zaria is pronounced as: Zah- ree- ah. That is how a Dutch person like I am would pronounce it.

[Avalon]

Congratulations! Really great news!
I knew it would be a girl. :p I am not sure about the names. They are unusual. Zaria... I can't remember a single Russian name, of which Zaria would be a shortened name to.

When I hear Zaria I think of Zara Phillips- that was really my first thought when I heard that name. Its differnt & neat

According the site: www.behindthename.com ''Zaria'' is an Arabic name for females. Quite strange they gave the girl an Arabic name! It means ''blooming flower''.
