Overview
- Princess Eugenie and Jack Brooksbank revealed the baby’s full name on Monday, Aug. 17, in an Instagram post that also included three family photographs showing the newborn with her older brothers.
- The couple’s daughter was born on Aug. 3 at a hospital in Lisbon, weighing 6 pounds 9 ounces, and Buckingham Palace said the King and Queen were "delighted to be informed" of the birth.
- Eugenie said the name honours "three people we love and admire past and present," with Elizabeth a direct tribute to the late Queen Elizabeth II and Adelaide reflecting historical English and Portuguese links.
- The second middle name Annina was said to come from a private personal connection that the family has not publicly explained.
- Adelaide will be 15th in the line of succession and will not use an HRH style, a result consistent with convention on royal styling; her overseas birth also drew attention to the couple’s split life in the UK and Portugal and reports that she could be eligible for Portuguese citizenship after five years.
