It's Official! Prince William and Kate Middleton has revealed third royal baby's name

The royal couple Prince William and Kate Middleton welcomed their third child, a baby boy on Monday. On Wednesday, the Kensington Palace announced the name on Twitter, adding that "The baby will be known as His Royal Highness Prince Louis of Cambridge."

The people started speculating baby's name even before he was born. Before his birth, the top favourite name predictions for the baby prince included Arthur, Albert, Philip and James and Alexander.

Kate delivered the baby at the Lindo Wing of St Mary's Hospital in London, where she also gave birth to her other children, Prince George and Princess Charlotte.

It's a royal tradition that Queen Elizabeth II is updated of the parents’ choice before making the name known to the public.

Once a name is decided, a notice announcing the name is placed on an easel in the forecourt of Buckingham Palace.

Prince William attended Anzac Day at Westminster Abbey in London just two days after his son's arrival, Willam gave a brief update on how they were setting in with the newborn.

Before the ceremony began, the Duke of Cambridge was heard telling New Zealand's High Commissioner to the UK that his newborn son was sleeping "reasonably well so far".
