Yes, but those aren't the statements I was addressing.
That was the question I asked, though, to see if anyone had a more concrete answer than I did.
Rightly or wrongly, Albert openly said, thought, and believed his brother Baudouin would have made a better king for most of (if not his entire) life. Perhaps he was too haunted to give the name to his sons, but was obviously quite happy to approve it and see it again in his future-king grandson. If he indeed asked Leopold and Astrid for the name, perhaps it shows some difference between younger and older Albert.
