Possible Baby Names

[Mette2]

My guess:

Christian Henri John Frederik

[norwegianne]

Does anyone have a link to any online sides of the royal protocol/edict that is referred to in the beginning of this thread? I haven't seen it, and I'm getting curious.

[BeatrixFan]

I think:

Christian Henrik John Joachim

I'd love him to be called Valdemar but I love the idea of keeping the Christian/Frederik thing going!

[Yolène]

I think first name will be Christian. I don't speculate about the other names. But all your speculations are interesting.
But I absolutely dislike Valdemar because this name is really oldfashioned in Gemany and it remembers me "Voldemort" ;-)

But how up to date of the Royal family to bring Harry Potter into it?

LOL Anne. Everything that's old becomes new and stylish again!

[Yolène]

Good idea, Norwegianne!

[BeatrixFan]

I agree - it wouldn't do for the future King to be known as 'He-who-must-not-be-named'.

I still like Valdemar though -

[Yolène]

Okay BeatrixFan: HRH, the newborn prince hasn't a first name yet. Or better he has a name, if CP Frederik and CP Mary have already chosen a first name, but the public may not know about it. So one could also say: HRH, "He-who-must-not-be-named"

But I think this all will end at the christening.

On the English Drama 'Upstairs Downstairs' - they called the Baby 'Lucy' but the very old nanny refused to call her 'Lucy' until she was baptised - so she called her 'Baby'. It sounded very funny when she kept saying, 'Baby wants her food' and 'Baby won't stop crying'.

Maybe they are all calling him 'Baby'.

One of my cousin is jewish and before her girls were presented into the community, there were known and called by everyone (and their parents) as "baby girl".

Even when he gets named, he's probably going to be known as Lilleprinsen for a while in the media - and if they catches any nicknames that Frederik and Mary or the rest of the family uses, they're going to latch onto those.

Lilleprinsen is so cute!!! I like 'den lille nye prinsen' too. Reminds me of 'Le Petit Prince'

[tricia]

I'd like for it to be something other than "Christian". They probably already have names for their son; they just won't be announced until the christening on January 21st.

Knud - Carl Christian Nicholas Paul Oscar

[princess olga]

LOVE Knud!
So how about: Knud Christian Soren Hans Joachim Australius.

[Pink Tulip]

I know it goes against tradition but I hope the little prince gets (or already has) his own name, not Christian.

How do you pronounce Knud?

[Layla1971]

I said earlier - Christian Frederik Henrik John.

[betina]

Knud is pronnoused K as in king NU as in nude and D as very soft d as you will pronnounse the.
I dont think Knud is a good name. It is so oldfashioned and in my head not a pretty name
I still vote for Christoffer then he will be king Christoffer 4.

I also like Erik. Third most common name of Danish kings.
