Prince Albert is the new favourite name for the royal baby and everyone’s making the same joke
The hot favourite name for the new royal baby is now Prince Albert after a web page was apparently set up on the royals’ website.
This is what it looks like, in case you’re interested.

So, no, not entirely conclusive. But it didn’t stop everyone making the same joke on Twitter.

More seriously …
Fingers crossed for Albert as name for new Prince – a fitting tribute to a really great man #princeconsort
