i also think it's quite likely that either william or kate are godparents to zara's baby.
As for godparents... Peter Phillips, either William or Catherine, Zara's bridesmaid and Mike's best man or a female cousin. But we wont know about the godparents, will we? We never heard anything about Savannah and Isla's godparents.
I am sure there will be a chance at the rugby in the next few weeks - have games coming up on:
24th January
1st February
7th February
16th February
22nd February
1st March
22nd March
29th March
12th April
19th April
3rd May
10th May
Then there will be equestrian events as well:
May 7th - Badminton - will Zara be competing by then???
June 5th - Braham
August 1st/2nd - Festival of Britain - at Gatcombe
September 11 - Blenheim Palace Horse Trials
There are other smaller eventing events but these are the major ones currently listed on the website Eventing Horse Events & Eventing Horse Shows
The Tindall's might be more high profile than the Philip's but they are even further from the throne so maybe we will hear about godparents or maybe not.
I doubt that there will be much in the way of photos - unless Zara and Mike use their profile to seel some 'happy family snaps' to a magazine as part of a sponsorship promotion or something like that.
I think Zara and Mike will give their daughter a modern-but-not-too-modern name for their daughter, like Peter and Autumn did with Savannah and Isla. I LOVE the names Eloise, Scarlett, Sophia and Freya. But Lady Helen Taylor has a daughter called Eloise so would that make the chances of that name being chosen slimmer? If they choose a traditional name then I think they will pick either Alice, Mary or Elizabeth. I would be very happy if they chose Alice, for a number of reasons! Here are my last minute suggestions:
Modern-but-not-too-modern
Eloise Victoria Anne Linda
Sophia Charlotte Elizabeth Mary
Freya Elizabeth Anne Zara
Traditional
Alice Elizabeth Zara Anne
Mary Louise Elizabeth Anne
Elizabeth Anne Rose Linda
Eloise and Sophia are modern? They are pretty traditional, and at least here, Eloise is considered pretty old fashioned and old ladyish. Freya may be modern in the sense it isn't a common name in the English speaking countries.
There is already an Eloise in the extended family: Lady Helen Taylor's daughter.Eloise and Sophia are those old-fashoined names that have become very modern recently. Like they're back in fashion.
I'm on the Alice bandwagon ... Alice Elizabeth Anne. However, someone with the name of Zara could favor another unique name -- how about Zeina Elizabeth Anne?
I kinda like Philippa. It covers a lot -Prince Philip, Mike 's dad name and Zara's maiden name.
Zeina Elizabeth Anne?
