The Princess of Cambridge has finally been revealed to the world as Charlotte Elizabeth Dian- a-in a touching nod to her grandfather, her grandmother and her great-grandmother.
The name has long tradition which can be traced hack to the royal background. Charlotte, de- rived from French name, pays tribute to her grandfather, prince of Wales. And Charlotte is also Kate' s sister, Pippa Middleton' s middle name.
Kensington Palace revealed the royal baby' s full name yesterday after days of speculation and close friends of Princess Diana immediately said the choice means the spirit of Prince William' s be- loved mother ' lives on'.
William was, however, clear that his baby girl should not have Diana as a first name. "It would have been a millstone around her neck," said one of the princess' s long-time friends.
Within minutes of the name being announced this afternoon, Diana' s closest friend Rosa Monckton said: "Diana' s spirit lives on in her sons, and now her name lives on in her granddaugh- ter ' Charlotte Elizabeth Diana'. "Diana was the godmother of Mrs. Monckton' s daughter Dominica
The British citizens show their satisfaction with this name via Intemet. They said it is the per- fect name for their lovely princess.
