He was supposed to be a Leo, a leader for the next
generation of the Royal family! He is still a leader, an heir to the royal
family though a Cancerian! At 4.24Pm, on July 22nd, a healthy royal
baby was born to Prince William and Lady Catherine in London.
George Alexander Louis!
The royal baby of the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge is named
George Alexander Louis. The name ‘George’ is after Queen Elizabeth’s father
King George VI. ‘Alexander’ is a Greek name which means ‘the defender of men’.
‘Louis’ was the first name of Lord Mountbatten, uncle of George's
great-grandfather Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh, and mentor to Prince
Charles. It means ‘renowned warrior’. A true leader in the making, the
royal baby is aptly named.
Britain and the whole world are celebrating along with
William and Kate, the birth of an heir for the new century. The next day of the
birth of the royal baby boy, he was taken home. On Tuesday, June 23rd,
when the baby was coming out of St. Mary’s hospital in the arms of his ‘dad’
Prince William and his ‘mom’ Duchess of Cambridge, Catherine, taking turns in
holding him, the media and well wishers were waiting outside to see the new
heir to the British throne. It was an event to be remembered as the proud
parents showed off the royal baby and the media waved gleefully to the royal
innocence cuddled up in a cream color blanket, oblivious of the world. 31 years
ago Lady Diana and Prince Charles had walked down the same steps of the
hospital with their new born baby.
"He's got her looks, thankfully," William said,
joking with the reporters. "He's
a big boy, he's quite heavy," he added as he held the royal baby in
his arms. "It's such a special time," Kate said. "Any parent
will know what this feels like." Like any normal parents who show off
their baby to friends and family, the Duke and Duchess debut their royal baby,
the third in line to the throne, to the media and well wishers. The couple
looked relaxed and had broad smiles on their lips as they talked to the
photographers and reporters, joking that the royal heir had more hair than his
‘daddy’!
When the 81 year old great grand mum, Queen Elizabeth met
the royal baby prince, it was an event in itself. The Queen spent half an hour
with them. The new royal baby, the first Prince of Cambridge to be born after
190 years, weighed 8lb 6oz. The Duke and Duchess spent a happy first day with
their royal baby as Congratulation messages flocked from all important names
across England and the World. As is always done for every birth of a prince or
princess, gun salutes were fired on the arrival of the prince into this world.
Prince William and Duchess Catherine registered the birth of Prince George
Alexander Louis on August 2nd.
