I really love those names.

I did think that Frede would reign as Christian XI, because then it would go Frederik, Margrethe, Christian. If he uses his first name then it's Frederik, Margrethe, Frederik. :o

Well, it's fairly likely that he will be Frederik X, so that the line of Frederiks and Christians get "even." That's why it is likely that the next child, if it is a boy, will get the name Christian. (Probably Frederik as well, since Frederik himself has both names.)

Yes, in a way you are right. But the allowed letters (as you probably know) are very limited for a poll question. Further I´ve thought that it´s clear, that I talk about his christening names (that´s the only thing his parents could choose). I just want to know, if he would get it as call name. As real first name of the first names. E.g like the "Frederik" in "Frederik André Henrik Christian". Usually a child is called only by one name...the other names are nice to tell, but most important is one name...and in almost all cases it´s the name on the first place, which is used.
I guess just to ask "Is Christian one of his first names" would be a bit boring, because most expect it. But surely not all as call name.
I hope I made it clear and you know now, what I mean. Maybe you can help me to phrase the question different (must be as short as the one now and should include, what I´ve explained here)

there is no law saying the girl must be named Margarethe. It is merely a coincidence that 2 Queens have been named it. As far as Christian and Frederick there is a royal protocal but not a law by the Danish government. Even with the protocal the parents to not have to name the child one of those two names. However, they may like the tradition but they may put a twist on it. Say give him a name like (just an example) Erik Christian Frederick or Erik-Christian or Christian-Erik and have him know as Erik. Just like the Dutch and Norwegian royal families have done with their daughters. Norway has Ingrid Alexandra who will be know as such, and the Dutch have Catherina-Amalia who is known as Amalia.

i'd love the name Juliana Alexandrine Marie Feodora.

i'm sure the CP and mary will name their son or daughter beautifully. their royal neighbors didn't disappoint when they named their heirs, so i don't think the couple would be far off.

I hope they pick something completely different.

Names for a baby girl that I am thinking of are (not in any special order nor will all be used)

Ingrid--For Queen Ingrid
Margarethe--For the Present Queen
Mary--For the Baby's Mother
Elizabeth--A good royal name
Alexandra--Consort to Edward VII of England

I don't think a baby girl will have the first name of Ingrid though--Haakon and Mette Marit beat the Danes to this first name!

Boys:

Christian--For obvious reasons
Frederik--For his father
Henrik--For his Grandfather

I would like to see something different for a boy like Erik or John.

Not only Haakon and Mette-Marit, but also Alexandra of Berleburg, Frederik's cousin used the name Ingrid for her daughter.
