Default Queen's Grand-child. How sweet.
(Editing in) Okay, so it's a great-grandchild. How sweeter.

I'm a staunch republican--God knows I am, dammit, and it just might happen in my lifetime--but it's hard not to be charmed out of my patriotism by news like this.

12th in line to the throne, eh? Good luck to her.

Nice for the the old Queen and Duke, too.

Daughter of Autumn. Sweet indeed - and sad in the context of the rest of your post. I wonder what they will call her.

No one in line for the throne should be allowed to be named Autumn. Other banned names for possible queens would be Kimberly, Jennifer, Heather, Amanda, and Chelsea.

No, don't panic! Autumn is the girl Peter married, she is the mother of the little one who is, as yet, unnamed.

A thought: perhaps it's the wrong time of year to be unkind to newborn children who are predestined to a life of political difficulty.

I'm looking forward to Carol Ann's take on it.
