On the other hand, Betfair put Alexander as the front-runner, with James second, and Arthur in third. Additional possibilities on the site include Winston, Hodgey, and for pop culture fanatics: Niall, Joffrey, and Thanos. Thor and Jesus also made the cut, as did the admittedly unlikely Donald.<doc-sep>Albert is also a family tradition. In fact, Queen Victoria incorporated the name Albert, the name of her husband Prince Albert, in all of her son's names. Victoria’s grandson, George V, even incorporated it into his three sons’ names. The new royal parents will likely share the name of their baby boy on Wednesday when they make their official debut as a royal family of three. Following the announcement of their first child, Prince Harry revealed he and Meghan were still "thinking about names". “The baby’s a little bit overdue, so we’ve had a little time to think about it. That’s the next bit,” he said. If royal tradition is anything to go by, Kate Middleton and Prince William waited two days to announce Prince George and Princess Charlotte's name after their births. They waited four days to announce Prince Louis‘ name. “I’m very excited to announce that Meghan and myself had a baby boy early this morning, a very healthy boy,” Harry said with a big smile on his face. “Mother and baby are doing incredibly well." “It’s been the most amazing experience I could ever possibly imagine,” he continued. “How any woman does what they do is beyond comprehension. But we’re both absolutely thrilled and so grateful to all the love and support from everybody out there. It’s been amazing, so we just wanted to share this with everybody.” Okay, Harry and Meghan, we're ready to meet him now! This article originally appeared on InStyle Australia.<doc-sep>Prince Harry and Meghan Markle welcomed their first child, a royal baby son, into the world at 5.26am on Monday 6 May. And today, at two days old, the world will see photographs of him for the first time. Not that we're greedy or anything, but we're also hoping that today might be the day where we find out the newest little royal's name, too. Because as nice as 'Baby Sussex' is, he probably can't go on being called that forever. Bets have been being placed on the name of Harry and Meghan's firstborn since the day their pregnancy was announced, but with the revelation of his name imminent, the favourite names are chopping and changing all over the shop. According to one expert, royal commentator Victoria Arbiter, Baby Sussex will most likely be given a name that reflects both British and American culture. Despite many of the favourites being traditional British names such as Arthur and James, her prediction is that the new parents will pick something more representative of both of their backgrounds. Her guess? Alexander. Speaking to CBS about her prediction, Arbiter said: "Alexander Hamilton is one of the founding fathers in the U.S." And, might I add, Meghan Markle and Prince Harry are known to be big fans of the musical Hamilton, which is based on him. So we might well have ourselves a contender. Chris Jackson Getty Images Another suggestion that has risen up the ranks of likelihood when it comes to Baby Sussex's name is Spencer. The boy's name would be a subtle tribute to Harry's late mother, Princess Diana, whose maiden name was Spencer. According to betting aggregate site bookmakers.tv, bookies have seen a flurry of bets on this overnight. The high volume of bets on Spencer mean odds on the name have dropped, but one woman who gambled £250 on the name last week, when the odds were 50/1, could land a win of £12,750 if it's announced that her guess was correct.

Meghan is also deeply proud of her black heritage, although she has spoken out in the past about her struggle to understand her identity in her early years and how best to find her voice in the world as a mixed-race woman.<doc-sep>
