[norwegianne]

Anybody else want to hazard a guess at names or sex of the baby?

Do you think that Mette-Marit and Haakon will opt for more traditional names for their unborn baby than Märtha Louise and Ari have done for Leah Isadora?

[The O.C. Fanatic]

Mette - Marit doesn't look like she gain any weight at all to me anyway. So Im thinking that they'll have another girl AGAIN? But still. I don't know how far along she is. Maybe it's to early to tell. I don't know we'll see.

So for NOW Im going to say that Ingrid is probably going to have a little sister to boss around.

And my friend Angelin have read that Mette-Marit is pregnant with a boy.

Will Ingrid Alexandra have a little brother?
Things might suggest that the Crown Princely couple is expecting a boy.

Crown Prince Haakon (32) and Mette-Marit (31) most likely know the gender of the baby they are expecting in December, writes Se og Hør.

According to the weekly magazine, they have talked to friends that everything suggests that their next child will be a boy. In addition to that, the Crown Princely couple shall also have been looking at baby clothes, and been particularly interested in the “boy colours”.

Regardles of the gender of the baby he or she will be number three in the line to the throne.

Future teller (spåmann) Henning Hai Lee Yang said in April that a lot suggested that the Crown Princely couples' second child would be a boy. What more he says about the coming child you can see by following the link below.

(I haven’t attatched the mentioned link to this post, but you will find it by following the link I attach as source). My translation.

I don't think this is too reliable, since this web site is rather tabloid and it bases its article on information from Se og Hør which is a not too serious magazine. But still, it will be fun to see if it will be as the future teller and the magazine predicts. I guess there will be a 50/50 chance :)

[LaMinka]

They can name the baby after King Johan or King Karl Johan, and name the baby Johannes. William is also a nice name after Ingrid Alexandra and the new babys 2 or 3 cousin Karl William Haraldsen (The brother of Pia and Haakon Haraldsen)

[tiaraprin]

I think it is going to be a boy.

Possible names for a boy or a girl:

Boy:

Olav--may not be the first name of the child, but it will be one of the names
Haakon--for the father and great-granfather, Haakon VII
Carl--the original name of Haakon VII
Alexander--King Olav was originally Prince Alexander of Denmark

Girl:

Sonia--for Queen Sonia
Martha--for Harold's mother
Maud--for Queen Maud, King Olav's mother
Elizabeth--A regal name and Queen Sonia is a good friend to Queen Elizabeth II

I don't think they name the baby Alexander or Maud. Alexander coming to be too close to Alexandra, and Maud Angelica Behn is named Maud after Queen Maud. So is Haakon and Mette-Marit will name there new baby after Queen Maud they can use Charlotte, Victoria or Mary (Maud was born Princess Maud Charlotte Mary Victoria of Wales). And if they will name the baby after King Olav they can name the baby Olav, Edward, Christian or Fredrik and not Alexander (King Olav was born as Prince Alexander Edward Christian Fredrik of Denmark, he was named after Aleaxandra and Edward 7. of Britan)

Little boy!!

[delineate]

I think it'll be a boy. I like the name Magnus too, but maybe they'll go with something a little less traditional.

[tigerlilly2005]

i think mette-marit will become a son.and i don´t know the typical norwegian names.
