I'm not the only loser watching the royal baby coverage, am I? It sounds like it was a fast labor and this baby "shot out like a damn banana" (tm Teen Mom).
What's the name? How overdue was she? Things I must know!
Excited for the name! Any other boy moms out there thrilled it's a girl so there's no chance of the royal family jacking your baby name one month out?!

Please Please Please don't name the princess Alice! I know that is the name that everyone is betting on right now and it makes me nervous lol. I had that name picked out 5 years ago and I don't want everyone thinking that my baby girl was named after a royal baby her entire life. Please pick a different name!

Our top choice for a boy name, James, was one of the rumored favorites if they had a second boy, as that's Kate Middleton's brother's name. We would have kept it regardless, especially it's a family name that stems from our distant relation to the House of Stuart (makers of progressively terrible monarchs from 1371-1714).

James is my all time favorite boy name! Unfortunately, my last name paired with James is the name of a current famous person so I just couldn't use it and subject my kiddo to a lifetime of "oh, is he named after James _____?"

We're having a girl and I'm praying they don't jack our name! Lol!! We've had so many friends have girls this year and we've been lucky up until now... And our name is one that they could potentially use. Almost makes me want to shout ours out now or even put it up in Vegas-type lights just so everyone knows it's been what we picked since we found out it was a girl.

I didn't even think of this until you mentioned it! But yeah - that could totally suck if they chose the name you'd been planning to use for your little girl .
Here's hoping the princess' name doesn't steal anyone's thunder!
The full pic of her leaving the hospital shows her wearing heels. HEELS. Think she's got the big mesh undies on with that dress?
Diana is on our name list, though not on top right now, but I'm still waiting with bated breath to hear the name.
Wait!! I can't handle the leaving the hospital in heels. That is nuts!!!!!
As far as the quick labor maybe she labored at home for as long as possible and then went to the hospital ready to go.
Of you can be like my conspiracy filled nanny and assume someone else birthed her baby the day before and she just walked in and walked out with another persons baby...

That's how I feel about Charlotte. I've heard that the odds favorite is now for Charlotte. I don't want people thinking I copied the princess!

Us too. We haven't announced that we've picked the name Charlotte yet, but even DH said tonight "Maybe we should announce our name now, so that if they chose the same name, we won't look like we're copying them".

Theory going on in my office this morning is that Kate really had surrogate. She looks too damn good for someone who just gave birth! I get that part of her "job" is to look good and she likely went into the hospital with make-up and hair stylist ready but she's making the rest of us feel like slobs. I figure if I can walk out of the hospital days later and not look like I was run over by a train then I'm doing good!

if the whole world was going to be waiting to see me emerge from the hospital, I'd bring every stylist, hair and make up artist I could get my hands on. I'm not holding that against her. That's a lot of pressure.
The reality is, every stylist, hair and make up artist etc. couldn't make most women look that good just after birth. I think she just has good genes.
I jumped to this thread again thinking they finally announced the name. I guess not. ETA: See next post below.
Also, can I call my daughter 'Her Royal Highness Princess Gianna of L-Town'? Cause I've just decided I'm going to. And this just makes me want to go to high tea and wear a crazy fascinator on my head, who's joining me?

belle0720 that's what I told my husband! I'm taking it as confirmation that we picked a really good name;)
purpledaisy923 we have not announced to our family, we were waiting until she's born. We did tell them her initials (CER) a few weeks ago so of course my mom phones my immediately and demanded to know if we were naming the baby Charlotte Elizabeth....I told her she would find out when the baby was born;)
@bubbs119 thank you! We took forever to decide and I'm sure there will be a boom of Charlottes, but I still really love it! And she already has monogrammed stuff so it's sticking;)
