The British Royal Family - news, views, clothes & shoes!

Whoo hooo! We all predicted shortly before the wedding that an announcement would be made before the holidays! I knew they would try right away for children. Harry and Meghan seem to do their own timeline which everyone should be allowed to . I am hoping for twins!

Zara is a derivative of Sarah - basically the same name with alternate spelling. Isn't there also a younger Sarah among the Royals?

Assuming you don't mean Fergie aka Sarah Ferguson!! I read a rumour that Andrew and Sarah, despite being divorced 20 years and both having other relationships over the years, are living together full time again and might remarry when Phillip (and probably also Elizabeth) dies. Apparently they were pretty much forced to divorce after the toe-sucking incident.

I think Moon Unit is a girl's name ... wasn't that the name of the daughter of Frank Zappa? So that would be Princess Moon Unit

Oh, well Princess Moon Unit sounds loads better

Amonet knew who I meant. She was Lady Sarah Armstrong-Jones, now Lady Sarah Chatto. I remember her when she was younger and Princess Margaret was still alive. Kinda hard to keep track of all the Royals

My bet is 'designer' twins - one boy and one girl - like
Julia Roberts , Jennifer Lopez, Mariah Carey all have.

Congrats to the new soon to be parents.

Are there twins in the Royal Family lineage? Twins among the Markles? Multiples tend to run in families.

Lady Sarah Chatto is the daughter of Princess Margaret, so the niece of the Queen.

Is that how you came by your moniker?

And the Clooneys.

I wouldn't be surprised if they consulted with the same fertility specialist as the Clooneys'. In your late 30s, you want to get it done correctly and not waste time, IMO.

As American names go, from a certain era, I always liked this family...

They even changed their surname from Bottom to Phoenix!

River
Rain
Joaquin
Summer
Liberty

Victoria hasn't been used by the royals for awhile, right? It's a lovely name.

Good point. I just finished reading this article: Why Meghan Markle's pregnancy at 37 is considered "geriatric"

If you want to see a gorgeous fella, google Sarah Chattos sons. Think its Arthur who is the hunk.

Bookies' top picks for the name of Meghan and Harry's baby

Of those picks, I like James and Eleanor.

I love the name Diana, but maybe it's still too soon? She would be compared to her grandmother. Maybe wait another generation. Jmopinion, of course, if the Royals are interested in hearing from me.

I knew she would be pregnant as quickly as possible because of her age and they wasted no time I see. I love the royal family and have always said I want to be The Queen!

Love the name of the new thread. It is perfect!
