Yes I like Erik too. It sounds bery Danish and modern. Maybe it will be a middle name.

I think even princes only get four names! And it sounds a bit too German for the Danes taste. Maybe - Erik Gustav Frederik John.
You must incorporate his father and maternal grandfather's names somewhere!

well; I like the name Christian very much.
I could imagine that they'll chose that name, especially because it's tradition in denmark to call the future kings Christian or Frederik.
And I cannot belive that the little prince will get the same name as his father.
:)

I think they will keep with Christian as the first name. I also think they will also use shorter more internationalised Danish names as first names for future children.

eg Erik, Johan (John), Henrik, Hans

I think the new Prince will be:
Christian Frederik Henrik Johan

Ok, I'm NOT critisizing anyone! You have all been very imaginative here in thinking of names, but HOW could we burden this poor child with 8-10 names!
Having more than 4 names may give a whole new meaning to a child learning to say and spell their own name, let alone remember it!:)

It's only in the last two/three generations that the Danish royals have stuck to 4 names for their children. So, that's not set in stone. But more than 4 names might be a bit impractical.

Ok, I've looked through the descendants of Frederik IX and I don't think there's an Elisabeth on his side. Could Princess Elisabeth descend from Queen Ingrid?

That's because she isn't a descendant of Frederik IX (with the long and pretty name: Christian Frederik Franz Michael Carl Valdemar Georg, since we're on that topic) Princess Elisabeth is the daughter of Prince Knud (Knud Christian Frederik Michael) of Denmark and Princess Caroline-Mathilde of Denmark. Prince Knud was the brother of Queen Margrethe's father, Frederik IX, and Princess Caroline-Mathilde was the daughter of Prince Harald of Denmark (brother to King Christian X and King Haakon VII of Norway.), and thus Princess Elisabeth is related to Queen Margrethe through both her (Elisabeth's) parents.
