It may well be that Prince Harry has had the name Lili up his sleeve for a while after a random exchange on a visit to Merseyside two years ago was unearthed.
Harry and Meghan, who was then pregnant with Archie, were on a visit to Birkenhead when Harry spoke to one mother, Rebecca Blundell and her two daughters Lily and Lottie.
When told their names, Harry apparently asked how she spelt Lily.
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex revealed the birth of their daughter Lili Diana on Sunday. She is named after the Queen and Princess Diana.
