Well, considering that they don't give their children more than one name, I'd like to see:
Isobel
Carmen
Catalina
and if a boy:
Antonio
Carlos
Miguel

We must think in Royal names...at least a name who could mean something important in Spain Bourbons family...
What about María Eugenia Sofia Isabel?
But, at least, the Princes of Asturias will decide all by themselves the names they wants. However, It could be possible that they visiti this site and choices some of our suggestions!

its Spanish equivalent would be Juana. i think Joana is a fairly popular name, and i like it too. but the letter J is pronounced like the letter H in the English alphabet.

the way it is pronounced is different, if you're going to follow strictly the Spanish way of pronunciation. Eleonor would be {Eh-leo-nor} and Leonor would be { leo-nor} [just two syllables, le and o are not split, the sound of "e" and "o" is short, not like ey or oh]
hope that helped clear some things.

Juana is a very nice name but I don't think it's wise to name an infant that.
Historically, Juana of Castille was also called 'la loca' or Juana The Mad.
Yikes.

While discussing names I always have thought that royals don't even have to look up their family trees. Thye have to visit this forum and choose the name they like

If they go with a royal name, I'd like it if they chose the name Munia. I also like Berenguela although I prefer the spelling of Berengaria. That way the Infanta could have the nickname of "Aria." I know it's Italian (and trendy and very unlikely), but I like the names Leonor and Aria together.
For a non royal name, I'm still stuck on Nuria.

According to the Princes they chose the name of Leonor from the book letizia gave to Felipe...
if they decide to choose the name from that book again then the new princess could be called, Ignacia, Gertrudis, Saturnina, Sinforosa...

One of the characters of the book (if I'm not mistaken, the mother of Don Enrique), was called Leonor.

The book Letizia gave Felipe on the day of the pedida de mano is called:
El doncel de don Enrique, el doliente.It's a beautiful book of 1850 by Mariano José de Larra. One of the main characters in the book is called Leonor, so many people believe that's where they got inspiration for their daughers name. Sweet isn't it.

I think The Infanta Lucia Isabella is a beautiful name, but maybe not for a royal baby! They may prefer something more traditional with a royal history. Although if I'm right Leonor's name wasn't after a family member
