The royal name Princess Eugenie will no doubt consider for her baby daughter and why
Congratulations are in order for Princess Eugenie and her husband, Jack Brooksbank, who welcomed their baby daughter on Monday night at a hospital in London. The proud mother announced the happy news on social media, sharing a photo of their newborn and a caption that read: "Jack and I are so excited to announce Baby Girl Brooksbank!! We are beyond in love with our girlie."
Eugenie and Jack have not yet revealed their daughter's name, fueling speculation about their choice. While the first name remains a secret, the baby's middle name is more predictable given her royal lineage. It is highly probable that Eugenie's baby will be given the middle name Elizabeth, in honor of her great-grandmother, the late Queen Elizabeth II. This follows a long-held tradition for modern royals, with Elizabeth's daughter, granddaughters, and great-granddaughters often bearing her name.
For example, Queen Elizabeth II was born Anne Elizabeth Alice Louise, and she named her daughter Anne. Eugenie's sister, Princess Beatrice, was born Beatrice Elizabeth Mary, and she gave the middle name Elizabeth to both of her daughters, Sienna Elizabeth Mapelli Mozzi and August Elizabeth Brooksbank. Prince Edward's daughter and Elizabeth's youngest grandchild, Lady Louise Alice Elizabeth Mary Mountbatten-Windsor, also carries the name. Furthermore, five out of seven of the late queen's eight great-granddaughters were given her name, including Sienna, Athena, Isla Elizabeth Phillips, Lena Elizabeth Tindall, and Lilibet Diana Mountbatten-Windsor.
