Kate Middleton and Prince William's royal baby is due, like, any minute now! The big questions, of course, are whether she will have a boy or a girl, and what the name will be. Place yer bets, place yer bets here! No, seriously, people are placing their bets. London betting houses are running the odds on the heir to the throne's name and certain ones have risen to the top of the betting pile. Best odds are that Kate's baby will be a girl, so the top four names are girl names. This speculation no doubt stems from Kate's "I will take this for my d -- " slip up. Though supposedly Prince Harry had revealed that the baby would be a boy. But one thing is for sure: Anyone who is willing to bet on the baby being named Chardonnay or Brooklyn can make a lot of money -- if it happens! Here are the top 20 royal baby name with the best odds.
1. Alexandra
This has been the top pick throughout Kate's pregnancy. It's one of Queen Elizabeth's middle names.
2. Charlotte
This is the middle name of Kate's sister Pippa. Queen Charlotte reigned in the 1760s and was widely thought to have African ancestry, making her the first "black Queen."
3. Elizabeth
This is, of course, the reigning monarch and Prince William's grandmother's name.
4. Victoria
Queen Victoria was the longest reigning female monarch in history, ruling for 63 years and eight months. She ushered in an age of extreme morality. Hopefully a new Victoria won't be so uptight.
5. George
This name has been used by six Kings. Seems a tad old-fashioned for the couple.
6. Diana
This would obviously be a nod to Prince William's mother, who tragically died in a car accident when he was a boy. She's still a public favorite. I suspect if Diana is left out of the baby's name entirely, there will be an outcry.
Here are the next frontrunners in order of odds:
7. James
8. Alice
9. Alberta
10. Mary
11. Grace
12. Eleanor
13. Philip
14. Maud
15. Matilda
16. Arthur
17. Florence
18. Alexander
19. Catherine/Kate
20. Louis
Long shots include: Chardonnay (250/1); Rafa (500/1); Elvis (500/1); Peaches (500/1); Brooklyn (1,000/1).
Check out the rest here. You can also bet on the baby's sex, due date, and hair color. Most people believe a brunette baby girl named Alexandra will be born today!
