Hide AdAlbert, Arthur and Philip are all thought to be in the running for the name of the new royal baby.
The Duchess of Cambridge gave birth to her third child - her second son - at 11.10am on Monday morning.
Historian Judith Rowbotham predicted William and Kate would pick Philip for the new baby prince, in tribute to the Duke of Edinburgh.
“I strongly suspect that Philip will be either a first or a second name,” she said.
“It’s plain that they like the Germanic sounding names but at the same time they’re looking within the Windsor traditions.”
Arthur has been the bookmakers’ favourite for a boy, followed by Albert.
