Re: Alexandra or Alix

I'm wondering if they'll use Frederik. It seems customary for the first sons of future monarchs to receive the names of any royal grandfathers, uncles and a famous ancestor, so they might wait and use Frederik on any future male children.
I'll be very surprised if Mary and Frederik don't use Christian. I was shocked when Haakon and Mette-Marit didn't use Olav, which a lot of people thought the couple was sure to use. Even if they hadn't used Olav, I thought for sure they'd use another family name. No matter, though, because I love Sverre. It's a perfect match for Ingrid. :)

Yeah, Haakon is the heir to the Norwegian throne and Mette-Marit is his wife. Their first born was named Ingrid Alexandra and they just had a little boy which they named Sverre Magnus. I love reading about them. I love all the royal houses, but my favourites have to be the Scandanavian royal families. :)

I like those royals too, although I don't know too much about them. I love their names, I'm getting sick of all the english names being so popular. There's so many Sarah's and Matthew's in my year at school and I have noticed that in the youngest year at my school (year 7, I've just finished year 12, only one more year left for me!) the new names are Jayden & Jamie. I don't like the english royals that much, (even though my country is in the commonwealth). Their names are too boring lol. We don't here much about royals here which is ashame but if there's anything on TV about any royals I usually watch it.
