Celebrity baby names often spark curiosity, with some pushing boundaries while others embrace tradition.
Middleton first captured global attention as a bridesmaid at her sister’s royal wedding to Prince William in 2011.
She made headlines again in 2017 whenshe married James Matthews, a race car driver turned hedge fund manager.
These names also seem to thoughtfully pay tribute to the children’s own lineage.
Let’s take a closer look to understand the significance of these sweet and presumably carefully chosen names.
The name Arthur, of course, calls to mind the British legend of King Arthur of Camelot.
The first being Pippa’s father, Michael Middleton.
And as for Arthur’s second middle name?
The name Grace comes from a Latin word that means “blessing.”
Pippa and Princess Catherine’s great-grandmother was called Elizabeth Lily Harrison.
Grace’s second middle name, Jane, honors James' mother, Jane Matthews.
Once again, this thoughtful choice highlights the couple’s dedication to honoring the matriarchs in their respective families.
Her first middle name, Louise, means “famous warrior” in French.
Rose’s second middle name, Victoria, means “victory” in Latin.
The name could also be a reference to Queen Victoria.
And of course, there’s no shortage of regal charm.
