Princess Beatrice Heartbroken After Meghan Markle Takes Her Baby Name Choice

Princess Beatrice was left heartbroken after Meghan Markle reportedly stole her choice of baby name, according to a newspaper.

The name “Lilibet” was chosen by Prince Harry and Meghan Markle for their newborn daughter, which caused Princess Beatrice to cry when she heard the news.

A source revealed that Princess Beatrice had planned to name her firstborn daughter Lily ever since she was a little girl, inspired by her grandmother.

The insider added that after everything that Meghan and Harry have done, Prince Charles may choose not to give their kids princess and prince titles when he becomes king.

However, Princess Beatrice need not worry about her own kin, as her husband is Italian royalty.

They are looking into whether baby Mozi may be eligible to inherit it.

Princess Beatrice and Edoardo Mappelli Mozi's newborn daughter will have an official title from her father's family, not from the British monarchy.

In the British monarchy, titles like HRH, his/her royal highness, are only passed down through the male line.

Therefore, Beatrice's daughter with Edoardo Mappelli Mozi won't be known as a princess or even a duchess, because her link to the royal family is through her mother.

However, Beatrice isn't the child's only noble parent.

Property developer Edoardo, who is reportedly a multi-millionaire, is also an Italian count and could pass a title to his daughter through his noble heritage.

The couple's baby girl could inherit the Italian title of Donna Nobile, or noble woman, through her Italian father's family.

Though titles like this aren't as official as an HRH, they're still used in Italy as a courtesy and are passed down through noble families.

The newborn, who is 11th in line to the throne, is the couple's first child together, while Edoardo already has a son, Wolfie, from a previous relationship.

She is also a 12th great-grandchild for the queen and a second grandchild for Prince Andrew and Sarah Ferguson.

While Prince Harry and Meghan pay tribute to Her Majesty with the name of their baby daughter, Lilibet, the latest odds indicate Beatrice may opt to pay homage to her mother instead.

Betfair lists Sarah as the early 8-1 favourite, but suggests the couple may also honour Edoardo's Italian heritage.

Anne is second favourite at 10-1, with Maria at 12-1 and Rosa at 14-1.

Betfair spokesman Sam Rossbottom said, “Royal family fans will be delighted to hear the news that not long after sister Eugenie gave birth, Beatrice has welcomed her first child to the world, a bouncing baby girl, and Sarah is the early 8-1 favourite, a nod to her mother Sarah the Duchess of York.

We are tipping the happy couple to have an Italian flavour with their choice of name, with Edoardo's father hailing from Bergamo.”

The likes of Anna at 10-1 of a second's favourite, Maria at 12-1 and Rosa at 14-1 suggest they could break from traditional British names usually favoured by the royal family.

Meanwhile, Ladbrokes suggests Beatrice and sister Eugenie's own names, which mark to break from royal tradition, may see the newborn given a more uncommon moniker.

The bookies have Matilda at 4-1, Florence at 9 halves and Arabella and Cecilia at 5-1.

Elizabeth, a clear tribute to the Queen, is priced at 7-1.

Jessica O'Reilly of Ladbrokes said, “Given Beatrice and her sister's names are a little different than the norm for the royals, it wouldn't be a huge surprise to see a new moniker introduced for their daughter, and also with an Italian twist.
