I suspect William is content to just go along with it all and I wasn't impressed by the way he was ordering Catherine where to stand and when to hand the child over to him and when to go back in etc.
I think that Harry would've been more inclined to stand up to them all, he has his mother's attitude I think

I could not disagree more, George is a very popular name now, as are most traditional names, I'm sure will and Kate chose a name that they liked that was suitable for a future king, so far they seem to have done things the way they want them, while still being traditional and in keeping with being part of the royal family, they can't just suddenly change the monarchy, I think they are a very modern couple. When they came out of the hospital, it looked to me like will was guiding his wife through a very tricky situation , which he is more used to. She must have been very tired, and that onslaught from the worlds media was the last thing she needed, but did need her husband by her side to help her through it.

George is number 35 in the top baby names list but was red hot favourite with the bookies but anyway, that's just how I saw it, I don't really care what they call it. I prefer people to have a mind of their own though instead of being dictated to.

Here we are in the 21st century and it's only now that they are talking about a woman being allowed to be heir to the throne.. it still has not been approved yet though
