The Duke and Duchess of Sussex will welcome their first child this month. Royal fans have been left waiting eagerly to find out what gender the new member of the royal baby will be, as well

as what name the royal couple will choose. But the first person to be informed of the details of the birth will be the Queen. And as the head of state, she has the power to say no to the

baby’s name if she thinks it is too obscure.  But royal expert Richard Fitzwilliams believes the Queen is likely to approve the name of Meghan and Harry’s baby, even if they choose something

unique.  But they will still most likely let Her Majesty know first out of courtesy.  Mr Fitzwilliams said: “It would naturally be expected that the Queen would be informed of the names

chosen for her great-grandchild. It would be a courtesy to let her know and highly unlikely that she would raise any objection. “It will be particularly interesting to see the names Harry

and Meghan will choose as they are likely to reflect the baby’s unique Anglo-American heritage.” The Queen has always been the first to find out when a new royal is born. Prince William

phoned his grandmother on a specially encrypted phone when Prince George was born.  This was before he told the rest of his own family - or Kate’s. The public will then find out through an

official statement posted on the Royal Family’s website, or their social media outlets. The name of the baby will then be revealed a few days later. Prince George and Princess Charlotte’s

names were released two days after they were born, while Prince Louis’ name was revealed four days after his birth last April.  Meghan and Harry’s baby could also be given three or four

names, including several middle names.  Bookies have been taking bets on the name of the new royal baby. Coral’s top name was previously Victoria, but Diana has now overtaken this at 6/1. 

If the baby is a boy, the names Albert and Philip have odds of 12/1. Coral’s Harry Aitkenhead has high hopes for the name Diana.  He said: “It would certainly be a popular choice for Royal

fans and an emotional one for the family, whilst there will be plenty of people celebrating their winnings if it does end up being the name.”
