It’s here — and it’s perfect! After much anticipation, Kate Middleton and Prince William have finally revealed the name of their baby girl. Kensington Palace announced on Monday, May 4, that the little girl is named Charlotte Elizabeth Diana.

The royal name, which includes a nod to Prince William’s late mother Princess Diana, was confirmed in a release. “The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge are delighted to announce that they have named their daughter Charlotte Elizabeth Diana,” the statement reads. “The baby will be known as Her Royal Highness Princess Charlotte of Cambridge.”

After just two hours in labor, the Duchess of Cambridge gave birth to Her Royal Highness, Princess Charlotte of Cambridge, on Saturday, May 2. She arrived at St. Mary’s Hospital in Paddington, London at 8:34 a.m. and weighed in at 8 lbs., and 3 oz.

As previously reported, the royal couple, both 32, shared “a private moment” with their bundle of joy before Prince William headed back home to get Prince George. Just twenty minutes later, the adorable 21-month-old tot was introduced to his younger sister for the very first time.

The family of four will now take some time out of the spotlight to enjoy quiet time together. It’s rumored that the next time the princess will be seen will be at her christening in early fall.
