Good point Norwegianne. I didn't know that Frederik's cousin used the name also.

What is actually funny is that the second name of princess Alexandra zy Sayn-Wittgenstein-Berleburg's little Ingrid is Alexandra (after her mother, quite normal).

In my opinion, Elisabeth or Alexandrine (a late Queen of Denmark, if I remember) would be very royal.
I've got a sister named Elisabeth and my best friend is Alexandrine: both these first name are full of caracter.

Two Ingrid Alexandra! of Norway and Denmark

[carlota]

do you think if it's a girl they will call her christina or cristina (as spain's infanta) or federica (as the late queen of greece)?

[Feberin]

I hope they have a boy first just to keep everything nice and simple with the line of sucession. And I hope they name him Christian for tradition and because I like that name. For a girl I'm sure they'll choose a really beautiful name probably one of the ones already mentioned in this thread. I think Margrethe will be in the name but not the first name, like Nicolaj has Frederick or Christian in his name incase the CP didn't have any children.

[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!)

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

My guess:a boy named Christian

[Lucidu]

For a girl: Henrietta Benedick Charlotte
For a boy: Joseph Hugo

I have a feeling it will be Henrietta as well if its a girl, either that or Margrethe.

If its a boy, i dont think it will be Christian or Frederik as i think they will break with tradition.

[Royal Fan]

I Like Frederik Johan

[LaMinka]

More names i like for Mary and Fred's baby:
girl: Christine Ingrid Henrietta Elisabeth
girl: Henrietta Renée Alexandrine Margrethe
girl: Alexandrine Henrietta Adeleine
boy: Christian John Fredrik André
boy: Joachim Alexander Henrik René
boy: Carl Fredrik John André

It's a bit hard to find a other royal Danish name than Christian and Fredrik.

and what is Prince Henriks fathers name?

[norwegianne]

Prince Henrik's father was called André, which is also among Henrik and Frederik's names.

[Princess Maxima]

for boy christian or frederik
and for a girl Mary-Astrid Margrethe Henrietta Desirée

[hilal]

Boy:Christian Frederik André Harald
Erik Ingmar Johann Christopher
Girl: Henrietta Margrethe Friderika Hedvig
Christina Ingrid Alexandrine

[norwegianne]

I think it would be great if they picked out some names from the royal family that hasn't really been used for some generations. Such as Harald, as hilal suggested above.

I don't think, though, that the baby should have more than four names. Something like Princess Elisabeth's would just be a burden to a child, at least today: Elisabeth Caroline-Mathilde Alexandrine Helena Olga Thyra Feodora Estrid Margarethe Désirée

Ok i dont think they will call him Joseph Hugo. Poor boy if he is called that. Joseph is also a rather catholic name and no one in the royal house of Denmark have ever had that name.
