I just saw pictures of her and Arthur on scooters a few days ago. I didn't know she was that close to delivering.

 

It's nice that she had a girl. Grace is such a pretty name, it's always been one of my favorites.

Yes, it's Grace Elizabeth Jane Matthews, 6 lbs., 7 oz.

 

Grace's middle names are a nod to her grandmothers, Carole Elizabeth Middleton and Jane Matthews. Elizabeth might also be a subtle acknowledgement of the family's royal ties. 


Pippa and her sister both have a middle name of Elizabeth, so seems more like a family tradition. 


I thought Pippa's middle name was Charlotte.  Does she have more than one?

Pippa is Charlotte and Kate is a Elizabeth.

Very nice! More kids, more joy! They ( Middletons) seem like a nice, normal, stable family. At least no drama there. Loving parents is a very important thing

Congratulations to the entire Middleton family.

 

I think it is wonderful that Pippa and her husband had a girl.  One of each is always nice if you are lucky enough to get it.  Grace Elizabeth Jane is a lovely name for the new baby.

 

And of course since my name is Elizabeth, it always makes me feel good when I hear a new baby now also has that name, even if it is a  middle name.  Looking forward to seeing pictures of Grace.

 

As the poster "sanna" mentioned, the Middleton family appear to be a nice, normal , stable family with no drama.  Of course I believe we all agree it is the healthiest atmosphere in which to raise children. Heart
