I like Josephine, it is a very appropriate choice.
Vincent is more a surprise, but it is a french name and the little prince has a french grandfather. It is a very classical name in France, although less given since some years.

it's a surprise for me as well... specially because felipe and frederik doesn't look closer than before... i heard that almost nobody likes letizia... some gossip around!!!
for the rest of the list, they're no surprise for me, but i expect some of fred's cousins, like nathalie, alexandra and nicholas...

Thanks for answering my question!
I guess that this ceremony is a low-key affair. On a different note, Prince Nikolai is a copy of his father.

I love the fact the children are being allowed to be children. Isabella is up and down out of her seat like a yo-yo, little Henrik is wandering about back and forth to his brothers and no-one has given them a stern look or told them to sit at peace. It's so lovely and not stuffy.

I like Vincent- Josefine is ok.....

same her. so far members seemed to prefer Josefine over Vincent, but I don't.
Makes me remember Josefa (the Brazilian version of the name) which here is an old fashion name, not in a good way, more in a Gertrude kind of way.
I believe I prefer Vincent more because I 've always like the name Vince.

I think it would create more of a scene to reprimand them! Children will be children, no matter the occasion. And they are being well behaved.

Love, love, love Josephine  In either spelling - Josefine is lovely too. Jury's still out on Vincent, but I guess we'll get used to it in time.
Lovely choice to honour Greenland with Minik and Ivalo.

Almost off topic: when I was in Spain some years ago I've read in a magazine that even Queen Sofia and Infantas Elena and Cristina doesn't like Letizia at all.

In the name guessing thread nobody even mentioned Vincent during 1448 posts
