JORDANIAN ROYALS


Full (christened) name: Princess Haya bint Al - Hussein of Jordan

Parents: King Hussein of Jordan and Queen Alia of Jordan

Date of birth: 3 May 1974
Place of birth: Amman, Jordan
Date of christening/baptism: not known
Place of christening/baptism: Amman, Jordan
Godparents: N/A

Other information of note: they have a very simple naming ceremony in Jordan; it's not like a christening or a baptism. I believe they just have a family gathering wherein the baby is dressed in nice clothes, and they officially announce the name the parents have selected for the baby--Nothing major, very simple. Another thing of note is that when girls are born in Arab countries they often have bint as their middle name, bint simply means daughter, bint is always followed by the father's name.
