Gender, Name and Godparent Speculation for Mary's First Pregnancy

[Synnadene]

I hope the baby will be a girl.
Possible name: Margarethe-Henriette
or if it is a boy: CHRISTIAN

[Vicomtesse]

Will the baby's name be announced right away???
Or is the name not announced until the baptism like Joachim and Alexandra's sons???

[norwegianne]

Does anybody have some final guesses as to name and sex as we move into the last leg of the pregnancy?

[BeatrixFan]

My Bet

Girl : Margrethe

(Wouldn't it be lovely to call her Margrethe Anne-Marie Benedikte!)

[norwegianne]

Out of 126 votes - 69 is for girl and 57 is for boy.

Anybody else care to cast their votes before the baby arrives?

[Roxsteve]

Has anyone heard how Mary is doing?

[Margrethe II]

A girl


Her Royal Highnes is doing fine now and has returned home, where she shall continue to rest until the baby is born. No more official engagements for this Crown Princess!

I think it's a girl. I hope the laws get changed soon so she'll be Queen someday even if/when a little brother comes along, and I also hope they name her after her grandmothers (Margrethe Henrietta is a pretty name). Of course a boy would be so cute too!

What is Mary's own date of birth?

[iowabelle]

I'll say it's a girl, we'll have a trifecta of queens in Scandinavia some day.

yes if we know her date of birth and when she conceived the baby, the chinese chart is pretty accurate. Find it here:

If she was 32 at conception (end of january by the expected birth date and her birthday is 2nd of February) then they should be expecting a boy but my vote is still for a girl.

I don't think this kind if predictions is pretty accurate. It didn't work for my mother (it predicted three boys and a girl, she had four girls).

Well since the Prime Minister wants to rush legislature to allow a firstborn girl to inherit the throne no matter what, I think its safe to say its a girl. If it were a boy, there would be no rush.

I tend to agree with you.

There is no rush to change the succession law as this will take years to do! It has to be voted on by two successive parliaments and a referendum has to be held...At the press conference at Chauteau de Caix, QMII stated that neither she or the parents knew the sex of the child and this was after the PM decided to start the procedure to change the succession law!

Well in that case, I hope for a boy. I like the name Christian. :)

I hope they don't wait until the baptism to announce the name! I'm an impaitent person :)

My guess:a boy named Christian
