When I look back at the names in the line I find I am fond of the possibility of a Princess Marie (or Princess Mary). Or Princess Claudine.

How about: Princess Claudine Marie Grace Antionette.

For a boy I like the idea of a Prince Ambrosius (or Ambrose - it's such an old name). But there is an Anthony and a Gaspar and Lucien and Honore in the line. How about Mindaugus?

How about: Prince Gaspar Lucien Rainier Albert.

The girls name are fine. Why do you hate the poor boy. Those are name never used, because they are old or terrible. Nobody wanted to pass them on. Gaspar???? Ambrose????

[Empress Merel]

For a girl, I love the names Ophélie, Giselle, Elodie and Amelie.

I second the name Gaspard but I also love Guillaume.

[principessa]

Now another name came into my mind.

I could also guess they will include the name "Nelson" in the baby's name, as Nelson is the first name of the late national hero of Charlene's homeland South Africa, Nelson Mandela.

Yeah, that crossed my mind too...maybe not as a first name, but among third/fourth name i could well imagine that happening..

Gaspar might be appropriate when the baby grows up to be a chain smoker like the rest of them.

Ha! No? But they are from the royal line - that's what I was looking at. They are unusual. I have a fondness for Ambrose - though agree it is not resounding, like 'Jack'.

Still, Gaspar sounds like a rogue, not so?

Prince Gaspar - I like it. Sounds a bit Narnia-ish to me.

Except that there would be confusion with the British prince. Though do the European royals bother themselves about such things - perhaps not - especially as you say the names would be said in French.

Charles and Claudine - maybe we've hit on the happy euphonious pair of names!

Or if Charlene and Albert have twin girls, then how about Marie and Antoinette? This is just a joke of course. On a more serious side, I like the idea of using Nelson as a middle name for a little Prince in honour of the late South African President.

My top contender for a boy is still Florestan, although I'm doubting some of my girls names now. I think Athenais is beautiful though, and would like it to be resurrected. It's also the name of a new de Ligne Princess however, so I'm not sure if they would use it because of her. Having said that, the de Ligne family seem to be quite 'minor' compared to other RFs, so she'd probably be overlooked.

Male child: Michael Kenneth Rainier

Last night I dreamt that Albert and Charlene's baby had been born and Princess Caroline and Charlotte Casiraghi were discussing it. It was just one girl, who had been named Poppy Charlotte Grace. I've got no idea where Poppy came from - dreams can be strange sometimes. Charlotte and Grace are understandable though, however Charlotte wasn't included in my predictions.

[Penny Lane]

Didn't Princess Grace also have a nice named Grace and she died ?

I could see for a number of reasons why Grace would not be a first name but I could/hope they would use it for a second or third name

I voted twin girls but one of each would be nice too.

I'm not sure about names I did think of Emilie Grace Marie.

I have to keep thinking about the names

Thank you I thought it was Lizanne's daughter.

Gosh, i hope they don't go with the Jamie Oliver book of babynames: Princess Poppy and Prince Buddy-bear

Princess Grace of Monaco's sister Lizanne was so often referred to as Lizanne that the general public may not have always been aware that Elizabeth was her given first name.

[dazzling]

I guessed twins because twins would be really nice IMO.A boy and a girl.

The big rumor was that Zara Tindall would name her baby Poppy - that must be where it came from.

Charlotte Grace is a lovely combination - it covers a great many people there - mother, grandmother, great-grandmother.

Sex: a boy.
Name: Henri Louis Michael.
Godparents: Gareth and Charlotte

[C4A]

I think if it is a boy the name Rainier ( and possibly more of his names ) will be included. He will be the first "grandson" bearing the Grimaldi name. It is also a strong tradition in SA to name the first grandson after his paternal grandfather.

A article and video in Bunte about the pregnancy of Charlene, it is in german language but at the end we have the short interview of Albert in english about the pregnancy of Charlene and we can read what he said exactly in this interview.

Charlène von Monaco : Wir lüften neue Baby-Geheimnisse! | BUNTE.de

[melina premiere]

first, I think that the prince will soon announce that there will be a change in the law of sucession, if it is a girl, she will be the future heir even if there will be a son after her.

second, I think that the christening of the future baby will take place in the cathedrale of monaco and the couple will present the baby to the people of Monaco on the place of the palace as Prince rainier and Princess Grace did it at each christening of their children.
