What do you guys think are the chances of them including Renee in the name?

[sgl]

Is the name 'Renee' in either of their families? It can be used for both a boy or a girl. One of my names is Renee, so I am naturally partial to it. I would love for them to use this name, but I have a feeling that they will use names that are in their families already (maybe this is a family name).

in french René is a name for a boy
Renée is a name for a girl

The name Renée is from Prince Joachims french grandmother Countess Renée de Monpezat (his farthers mother)

It's the same in Denmark. Renee is very rarely used though. :-D

[magnik]

Ok new from me:
Audrey,
Margaret (I think that I mention it before)
Florian
Henri

[Royal Fan]

Desiree Elisabeth Catherine Marie or Georg Bertold Alain Ludwig

[sgl]

I would like to see the names Henri and Alain for the baby. It would be a lovely way to honor the grandfathers.

[RoyalEnquirer]

I think the prince's first name will be something that Joachim and Marie both like. His middle names will definitely have some familial significance. We'll have to wait about three months to find out!

[wymanda]

Mayrius Henrik Alain Joachim

[MissSaga]

Joe's kids names:
Nikolai William Alexander Frederik
Felix Christian Waldemar Henrik (or another order)

but the paternal grandfather has already been used as well as the king names Frederik and Christian so in the new baby's name there will definately be a presence of:

Maternal grandfather Alain and father Joachim. ( I think it will be middle names )

For first names I think they will choose a completely normal, unconventional, modern name:
I'm thinking:

LUCAS, NOAH, VICTOR, OLIVER, SEBASTIAN. + middlenames which I could imagine being Joachim, Alain and either André/Albert/Carl.
I don't think they will choose Alexandre as first name because their best friends (Oscar and Britt Siebye) have a son called Alexandre and they won't choose it as middle name because Nikolai already has it as his middle name

[UserDane]

The only thing we can be fairly sure of is that one of the middle names will be Frederik or Christian, probably Frederik since Christian was used for Felix - in this way they keep up the tradition of having one of the two traditional male royal names - just in case.

I cannot imagine that they would name him Alexander either. T0o close to the ex-wife's name - who'd want that?

I didn't even think of that UserDane but you are completely right about Alex.
--> but frederik was also used for Nikolai. just as Christian was used for Felix which is why I personnaly don't believe those names will be used.

[Hedvig]

In Berlingske Tidende an expert historian says the name might be Albert Marie Holger Frederik. He thinks that Joachim's choice can surprise all. No one would have guessed Felix.
Ekspert tror på Albert Marie Holger Frederik - Danmark

I know - but I am almost willing to bet that they will use one of the two, probably Frederik. It doesn't matter that it has been used for Nikolai - one of these two names is just always included.
Valdemar (Waldemar) is another often used male name. Joachim, Felix and Christian all have it.

i also think so userdane. i think that frederik will be in the name, the first name will be rather unpredictable (like felix) and that there will be a name in relation to marie's family (what are the names of marie's grandparents?)

nikolai and felix's respective christenings were 2 months after the birth (however, a bit longer for both christian and isabella). i think the christening should be in two months time (beginning of july) for the new prince following tradition.

Noah Allain Joachim Wictor

Nikolai William Alexander Frederik
Felix Christian Waldemar Henrik

As I see it, Nikolai and Felix both have first names that are very much their parents own style. William and Waldemar are the "W-names", Alexander and Henrik (Alexander after Alexandra maybe?) the "honouring names" and Frederik and Christian the "Have-to-names." Nikolai Has his W-name in the second spot, Felix in the third. Nikolai his honouring-name in the third spot, Felix in the fourth. Nikolai his Royal name in the fourth spot, Felix in the second.

If we say they decide to go with, let's say, Joachim, instead of Frederik and Christian, since they are already used, they honour Alain (Or Allan), and the W-name could be Wictor for example. And, the different name-types should have different places than in his brothers names, then, he should be called **** Allain Joachim Wictor.

Of course, they probably haven't thought of that.

I think Noah is a very good bet, since it's popular in France AND Denmark, and it goes VERY well with Nikolai and Felix. :-D

[SarahMaria]

Uhh, apparently his name is Felix Henrik Valdemar Christian, but then the baby's name could just be Noah Alain Joachim Victor. :-D

[Lumutqueen]

Felix is Felix Henrik Vlademar Christian.
Nikolia is Nikolai William Alexander Frederik.

Neither names include Joachim so...

Boy
Henri Joachim Edouard Alain.

Girl
Renée Marie Françoise Henriette.
