And then there were four! Prince Harry and Meghan Markle welcomed their baby girl last week, making two-year-old Archie a big brother. The couple gave their new addition the sweetest name: Lilibet Diana.
While it’s a beautiful moniker, it also pays tribute to two members of Prince Harry’s family: the Queen, whose childhood nickname was Lilibet, and his late mom, Princess Diana. We’re not surprised about the latter, which is also one of Princess Charlotte’s middle names, but Lilibet was a fun surprise. It’s also a tribute to Harry’s grandfather, Prince Philip, who passed away this year and used to call his wife Lilibet.
And we’re totally smitten. The name is unique while still honouring Her Majesty, and the nickname they’ll call her, Lili, is such a beautiful spring-worthy name for a June baby. Harry actually showed interest in the name Lily back in 2019 during an outing with Meghan when she was pregnant with Archie. A little girl told him her name was Lily and he asked how it was spelled. Who knew" We can’t wait to see her when the pair decide to share a first glimpse!
