The Spencer link is very strong too with reference to the Cambridge children's names. George and Alexander are the sons of Diana's sisters. Charles Spencer was Diana's brother, he has a daughter Charlotte Diana and his son and heir is named Louis.

We'll just have to disagree on that and wait and see!

Prince Charles Philip Arthur George
Prince William Arthur Philip Louis
James Alexander Philip Theo (James, Viscount Severn)
as for the Louis(e):
Prince Edward Antony Richard Louis
Princess Anne Elizabeth Alice Louise
Louise Alice Elizabeth Mary (Lady Louise Windsor)
Louis Arthur Charles, you were named after three iconic Weasleys…
There was an Arthur Weasley [the Father], but no Louis nor Charles Weasley..
There was a Charlie Weasley, Rons elder brother (the one who worked with dragons ) Anyways, I like the name, although I didn't expect it. They went for very classic names for the heir and spare (George and Charlotte), so now they seem to feel free to go for a more unusual name. And of course the name Louis has been in the family through the Mountbattens.There was an Arthur Weasley [the Father], but no Louis nor Charles Weasley..

I have to say the name choice surprised me a lot. I'm not a huge fan of the choice as I was rooting for a Prince Arthur. I'm sure it'll grow on me and i'm sure he's as cute as a button.
I'm glad they didn't use a name currently used by someone at the minute (James, Edward etc.) as that just gets so confusing.
I'm also hoping for a Princess Alice when Harry has children!
It's interesting to see all the ties ...I think Mountbatten was a great grandson of Queen Victoria right?
I do think it's neat that all 4 (so far!) of them share in that name. Charles, William, George and now Louis.

Do we know where the Charlotte in Pippa Middleton's name comes from?
I'm wondering, given the lack of any Middleton nods in this name, if Charlotte is actually named after the person that Pippa's middle name comes from? (I hope I explained that well!)
Then George would be named after William's side, Charlotte from Catherine's, and then Louis from William's...
I was on Team Philip, so I'm a bit disappointed. However, it shouldn't be a surprise since it's one of William's names, as well as one of George's names.
Since Princess Madeline of Sweden lives in London wouldn't it be nice to see, in the future, a marriage between the Cambridges and the O'Neills? George and Adrienne or even George and Leonor.
Sorry if I missed it, but I'm just getting caught up. Do we know for certain that they are using the French pronunciation? Wasn't Montbatten pronounced lew-is?
I love the name, it's a strong nod to Phillip and Charles as Uncle Dickie was such a hugely important part of both men's lives. I would have preferred Arthur as the first name, though, just personal preference.
Yes it's Louis, in the French pronunciation.

how do we know? Was it announced?
Neat idea but I doubt we ever see another royal marry royal again.
