Prince Vincent and Princess Josephine

We love a bit of royal chit chat, this is no secret.  Still, we can't help but question the latest naming of the Danish royal twins:  Prince Vincent and Princess Josephine.

They say that all children grow into their names and we're sure this is true of these little nippers too.  Still, having twins in a family, you'd think that the names might "fit"  a bit together.  But who are we to judge?  When our Bronte had her babies, she wanted to name  them Elvis: it was a close call that she only had girls.

The Royal Twins, child no 3 and 4 to the Danish Crown Prince Frederik and Crown Princess "throw another shrimp on the barbie" Mary, were christened yesterday.

Vincent Frederik Minik Alexander is the full name of the little boy - we especially love the addition of a Greenlandic name (Minik).

Josephine Sophia Ivalo Mathilda is the name of the little girl - the name Ivalo being from Greenland.

The name Vincent means 'Conquering', where as the name Josephine means "The Lord increases".

Still, it could have been worse:  the could have called the poor kid Valiant.  And her Rapunzel.  But they did not, which is a good thing. 

Although we did root for Bent and Bente.
