What great news to tune into on my coffee break. So happy for not only a name but some adorable photos for the baby ![Flowers :flowers: :flowers:](https://www.theroyalforums.com/forums/images/smilies/flowers.gif)
I actually love the name. Not so common. A family name but one that has not been used in generations. As much as I like Frederick and Arthur they are very popular and common now (And Arthur reminds me too much of Pippa's kid). And I find Albert too old fashioned.
So happy Philip got honored. Not surprised middle name. Giving the baby his own identity while still honoring great-grandpa before he turns 100.
Nice blend of the two families.
It should be noticed the last Augustus (first name) in the royal family was the first and only previous Duke of Sussex before Harry. His children including a son Augustus from his first marriage, were considered illegitamite as they married without royal permission.
Be funny if baby August went by his middle name Hawke. Then he and his step-cousin would be Wolfie and Hawke.![Cool :cool: :cool:](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
