LONDON – And the princess has a name!

The newest UK royal, a girl born on Saturday, has been named Charlotte Elizabeth Diana. The middle names, of course, hark to her great-grandmother, the current queen, and her paternal grandmother, Princess Diana, who died in 1997.

Charlotte Elizabeth Diana is fourth in line to the throne — after her grandfather, Prince Charles: her father, Prince William; and her brother, Prince George.

She will be called Princess Charlotte of Cambridge. Her mother is Kate Middleton, the Duchess of Cambridge.
