Fans have since taken to the internet to make guesses and bets on what the baby girl, who is expected to arrive this summer, will be named. Many think the name Philippa is a highly possible contender, which would pay homage to the late Prince Phillip, Harry’s grandfather who died at 99 in April.

“The support for baby Philippa is showing no signs of slowing down, and we’ve been forced to trim the odds again that it’s the name for Harry and Meghan’s daughter,” Ladbrokes worker Jessica O’Reilly said, per The Royal Observer.

Others believe that the pair will choose a name to honor Harry’s late mother, Princess Diana, or his grandmother, Queen Elizabeth. In April, royal expert Katie Nicholl predicted that the former actress will honor Diana in some way.

“Of course, the Cambirdges gave Charlotte Diana as a middle name, I don’t think that precludes Harry and Meghan from doing that type of same thing. I think it’s very likely to be chosen as a middle name,” she told Entertainment Tonight.
