Royal fans are convinced the Duke and Duchess of Sussex will name their baby daughter Lily as a tribute to The Queen

And following the loss of her husband of 73 years, royal fans are convinced that the Duke and Duchess of Sussex are going to pay tribute to The Queen with their baby daughter’s name.

Although we all know her as Queen Elizabeth, Her Majesty’s parents and late husband lovingly referred to her as “Lilibet”.

As Cosmopolitan reports, royal fans on Twitter and Reddit have predicted that Harry and Meghan will give a nod to Her Majesty’s nickname by calling their baby girl Lily.

One wrote: “I’m not sure how relationships are between the family, but Lily would be a cute way to honour the Queen (Lilibet).”



There are 12-1 odds that Meghan Markle will call her daughter Elizabeth

Another added: “I read a prediction somewhere that they could use Lily for the Queen because of her childhood nickname Lilibet.

“And because of Meghan’s wedding bouquet being Lily of the valley. I think that’s really sweet.”

That said, Diana is still the firm favourite in bookmaker Coral’s betting at 5-1 while Alexandria is in second place at 8-1.

However, there are currently 16-1 odds that Harry and Meghan will call their daughter Elizabeth after her great-great-grandmother.

In more Royal Family news, this is the adorable nickname Prince Philip’s mum used in loving letters to the Duke revealed – and it will melt your heart.

And this is the touching moment Kate Middleton pecked grief-stricken Prince Charles on the cheek as they left Prince Philip’s funeral.

Plus The Queen could move to Windsor Castle permanently to be closer to Prince Philip, sources have claimed.
