Princess Eugenie announces name of baby daughter
Princess Eugenie has named her baby daughter Adelaide Elizabeth Annina Brooksbank.
Announcing the news on Instagram, she said it was chosen in tribute to "three people we love and admire past and present", including Queen Elizabeth II, and reflected English and Portuguese history - "two places we love and call home".
Adelaide was born earlier this month at a hospital in Lisbon, Portugal, weighing 6lb 9oz.
She is Eugenie's third child with her husband, Jack Brooksbank, after their sons August Philip Hawke Brooksbank, born in 2021, and Ernest George Ronnie Brooksbank, born in 2023.
Sharing new photographs of Adelaide, including one of her sons holding their baby sister, Eugenie, 36, wrote: "Two weeks ago today we welcomed our girl to the world. And since then we've had the most special, cosy and love-filled time.
"We are so happy to share Adelaide Elizabeth Annina Brooksbank.
"Named after three people we love and admire past and present, including her great-grandmother who we hold close in our hearts.
"Her name is part of English and Portuguese history, two places we love and call home.
"Augie and Ernie are already the best big brothers."
The name Adelaide is said to have been inspired by Queen Adelaide (1792-1849), who was married to King William IV, as well as Santa Maria Adelaide of Portugal, according to PA Media.
