Royal Baby Name: George Alexander Louis !

The Royal baby has finally a name!

Royal officials revealed on Monday that Britain's new prince has been named George Alexander Louis, ending speculation over what name Prince William and his wife, Kate Middleton, would pick for their first child.

Kensington Palace noted the royals are "delighted to announce" their son's name, adding that the 2-day-old baby and third-in-line to the throne will be known as "His Royal Highness Prince George of Cambridge."

It has to be mentioned that six previous British kings have been named George, and the name was a favorite of British bookmakers in the run-up to Wednesday's announcement.

For now, the baby is expected to stay out of the spotlight after making his first "public appearance" in the arms of the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge outside of London's St. Mary's Hospital on Tuesday.

After leaving the hospital, the pair introduced their son Wednesday to great-grandmother Queen Elizabeth II, who was keen to see the baby before she begins her annual summer vacation in Scotland later this week.


Then the young family headed to visit Kate's parents in their village near London.

Now that Kate and William have chosen a name, they are expected to soon choose a photographer for the baby's first official portrait.
