Oh my word I am gobsmacked..! Archie..? The Duke and Duchess of Sussex have named their newborn son Archie Harrison Mountbatten-Windsor.,!! Hmm..... I did think they might have been more imaginative than that..!
Yes it doesn't sit well with me either.Archibald yes but Archie !!! my dog is called Archibald,named after his great grandfather..Call me old fashioned but I do like tradition..Of course they can call their little bundle what they please but for heavens sake.. Loli the Luddite strikes back.
Yes Archie doesn’t sit right for the royal family to me either and in this area anyway it has been a very popular name for about 5yrs.!!So not original at all.! Ah well it’s their choice not mine.!
For our GC younger members this is the ventriloquist Peter Brough with Archie Andrews. Who believe it or not had a radio show in the 1950's. His supporting acts were jugglers and tightrope walkers TV was his nemesis, as he was a really awful vent!
Well it could be worse, they could have named him after me My real name not GC name, you soon now when your at school and get the pee taken out of you
It isn't as if he's going to become King, he's 7th in line. They're going their own way and not to be conventional.
Some of these posts made me smile! I didn’t expect an Archie I must admit. Bertie yes, or Basil or Cuthbert
