Britain's Princess Eugenie has announced the name of her first daughter, Adelaide Elizabeth Annina, on Monday. The newborn, weighing 6 pounds 9 ounces (3 kilograms), was born on August 3 in Lisbon, Portugal. This is the third child for Eugenie and her husband, Jack Brooksbank. In a message posted on Instagram, Eugenie expressed her joy at welcoming her daughter two weeks ago, describing the time spent together as "special, cosy and love-filled."
Eugenie is the younger daughter of the late Prince Andrew and his former wife, Sarah Ferguson. As such, she holds a significant place in the British royal family, being the niece of King Charles III. The infant girl has two older brothers, August, who is 5 years old, and Ernest, who is 3 years old.
The choice of the name Adelaide Elizabeth Annina holds great significance for Eugenie. It pays tribute to three individuals who are dear to her: her late grandmother, Queen Elizabeth II; the English and Portuguese roots of her family; and Queen Adelaide, who was married to King William IV. Additionally, the name Annina is a tribute to a close friend.
