I mean within 3 days couldn't they register by saying "Girl baby with the last name of Orange(Nassau) weighing...." But no Christian name?

muisjes are small sugary/anijs balls and when a baby is born people eat "beschuit" (sort of bicuits) with muisjes. when its a boy they are blue and when it's a girl it's pink, but because it's a princess they should be orange

I think Prince Bernhardt (the Queen's father) might go to the hospital too. It seems in the future we'll have 3 Sovereign Queens (up till today): Victoria, Elizabeth, and the newly born Princess 
My congratulations to the family once again :woot:

Oranje is not coincidence, every thing traditional is oranje. Our soccer team are not "het Nederlands elftal' (the Dutch eleven) but they are knows as Oranje. So because of this special birth probably everything will be oranje for the next couple of months :P

Then I don't know what was wrong with the site that I used.

Maybe it's because newborn babies are weighed differently.

To clarify, was Willem in the delivery room with Maxima? I read that he was seen smoking outside of the hospital, but not at his wife's side?
Hopefully he was out handing cigars afterwards, though!
