Congrats to Mary and Frederik! I had a feeling it would be a girl. The Danes wanted a little princess and Mary never disappoints even when it's out of her control it seems.

Toujours · April 21, 2007, 03:41:37 PM

i wonder what theyll name her. :woo:

Congrats to Mary and Frederick.
Can't wait to hear her name.

Siempre Vuelva · April 21, 2007, 04:47:37 PM

We have to wait for a long time to hear her name, until the christening - 3 months or so?! :shrug:
But danish "experts" say that the names could be:

Margrethe - after her paternal grandmother (this name as her first name)
Ingrid - after her paternal great-grandmother
Henrietta - after her late maternal grandmother

I rarely post on this board, but I like CP Mary. :flowers: Congratulations to CP Frederick and CP Mary on the birth of their own special little bundle of joy. A baby is a blessing, and I'm glad that mummy and baby are doing well. :flowers: :Royal: :baby:

Pri · April 21, 2007, 08:35:58 PM

It's baby season!!!! Congrats to Fred and Mary for their little baby girl!!!

For names the experts predict, I think I like Ingrid the best. I'd prefer if they chose a different name entirely though.

Wow, I just realized the three Crown Princesses who were pregnant and due this spring have all had (or in Letizia's case, going to have) girls: Maxima, Mary and next, Letizia's daughter -- congratulations to Mary, how exciting :hug: :flowers:

Even our Forum Crown Princess Lola had a girl this month ... :yipee: :banana:

Girls rule and boys drool :drool: :thumbsup:

Wombat · April 21, 2007, 11:16:02 PM

:yipee: Another part Aussie born into royalty...we're slowly but surely spreading throughout the world :devil:

Congrats Mary, Fred, Christian and baby :flowers:

dizzylizzy13 · April 21, 2007, 11:53:01 PM

Hey, maybe you could send them a "Made in Australia" t-shirt -- wasn't she conceived there? :shrug:

Wombat · April 22, 2007, 12:02:27 AM

Dunno :blink: Was she? :teehee:

I think they should call her Sheila ..honouring her Aussie heritage :windsor1:

Windsor · April 22, 2007, 12:28:15 AM

I would not be surprised if The Crown Princely couple name their newly born daughter Elizabeth. :)

Jenee · April 22, 2007, 02:20:20 AM

^ I have a feeling you will be naming your first born daughter Elizabeth! :happytears:

So there is no law about what she can be named... like the son had to be either Christian or Frederik?

Pri · April 22, 2007, 02:48:10 AM

They have a law that the sons have to be called either Christian or Frederik?!!? :blink:

karla64 · April 22, 2007, 02:49:08 AM

:shrug: :hmm: :unsure: a law to tell you that you have to name you children those two names :unsure: :blink:

sillyjobug · April 22, 2007, 03:29:56 AM

I don't know anything about Christian having to be named either that or Frederik, but I do know that in Denmark there are some laws about naming children. There's basically a big book of names that are considered "real" names which you can use for your child. You couldn't go "I'm going to name my child Apple" (although in Danish) over there...it has to be a real name.

And congratulations to the couple! :) Little girls are adorable!!!

Jayne · April 22, 2007, 05:25:27 AM

Congrats :fool:

Varya · April 22, 2007, 05:45:48 AM

Who decides what is a 'real name'? ???

And Congratulations to CP Mary and CP Frederik!!! :D
Can't wait till cute little pics of her are released!

QuoteIt is a Danish tradition that the names of that country's princes' alternate between Christian and Frederik.

I was just wondering if there was a similar tradition for the girls
