NAMING THE LITTLE PRINCE<\/h1>\n

 <\/p>\n

This one will be short and sweet. I just have to add my two cents to what the name of the new Royal should be.<\/p>\n

As I stated in my sports column when Andy Murray won Wimbledon last month, I really feel that at least one<\/em> of his two names should be in there somewhere. Most royals have several names, (even though none of them have a real last<\/em> name,) so I figure what the heck. I know some other people who have sports-related names, some deservedly so, (such as Yankee great Robinson Cano being named for previous Dodger<\/em> great, Jackie Robinson,) and others not (which I’ll tell you about down the line.) So why not throw in an \u201cAndy\u201d or a \u201cMurray\u201d somewhere in the new prince’s name? Let him have some colorful stories to tell! (At least ones he’ll be allowed<\/em> to tell.)<\/p>\n

Of course, had the baby been a girl<\/em>, I’m sure they would have fit \u201cDiana\u201d in there somewhere, if not as the first name. So how about \u201cDane\u201d as a middle name for a boy? I’m sure that they’ll at least have \u201cSpencer\u201d as one of the names, seeing that that was Diana’s maiden name and a proper boys moniker at that.<\/p>\n

Another thought is that, since he keeps being referred to as \u201cThe Little Prince,\u201d perhaps part of the author’s name, Antoine De Saint-Exupery, should be in there, as well? Or \u201cRose,\u201d because caring for his rose is a big part of the story. (Not to mention it’s my mother’s maiden name! But, as we all know from my e-zine’s title, It’s Not About Me!) But the novella ends sadly, (in my opinion,) so I don’t think I’ll vote for this one, even though it’s my own idea.<\/p>\n

One name I’m sure we can all be certain will not <\/em>be used is \u201cAnthony.\u201d That’s the first name of New York mayoral candidate Anthony Weiner who was once again disgraced this week, the day after the prince’s birth. No one needs a reminder of that debacle for the rest of his life.<\/p>\n

So if it were up to me, the newborn’s name would be Spencer Andrew Murray Dane Cambridge. I wonder if I can place a bet on that one! Any takers?<\/p>\n

[Note: If you feel like it, please let us know your choices in the Comments comments section below. I would really love to see what everything thinks about this one!]<\/p>\n

By the way, why has no one else mentioned these two points about Kate’s leaving-the-hospital dress? Did no one else notice that when Princess Di left the hospital after Prince William’s birth, she was wearing a green dress with white polka dots? So I really feel that Kate wore are a similar white polka-dotted dress (this one in blue) as a tribute to her husband’s mother. I bet she had one in pink, as well, just in case. (And that’s one bet I could place, if I did that sort-of thing.)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
