True! Why on earth did the Queen allow Edward to take James?
His son has virtually no chance of inheriting the throne, so any name would do for him. He didn't need a monarchial name!
Why shouldn't Edward have been allowed to use James? Even if he had used another name, Catherine would still have had a brother who bears the name. Whilst I agree that James would have been a wonderful name for a future king, I'm strongly opposed the whole "not allowing" someone to use a name. Edward and Sophie liked James so they chose it for their son (who looks perfectly like a little James by the way).
