By George you've got it.....

....the name that is. The Royals have named their new born son and possibly future king - George!! Well, there was really only one King George (III) who was mad and King George VI was well liked - better I think than his brother George V who abdicated to marry a twice divorced American woman. Oh, then, of course, there was St George, who slew the dragon. His cross is part of the Union Jack - go figure!

It isn't my favourite name, but there is hope. Wikipedia tells us that George is /was also the name of :

1. An early computer (1957), an operating system, a programming language, a website that tracks American currencies - shouldn't that be Sam? and a simple robot 1949.

Phew that's a tough act to follow!!

2. It is also the affectionate name of an autopilot, a bus service and a ship. Not to mention a society for the prevention of calling Sleeping Car porters George. There was also the handy phrase "Let George Do it."

He may have to one day :)

3. Finally it is the name of a clothing line for Wal-Mart/Asda, a magazine, a hurricane, a tropical storm, a vacuum cleaner and a lobster.

a vacuum called Miele :)

Obviously no one consulted Wikipedia before adopting the name. Then again the Royals are apparently on a campaign to seem like the rest of us. Well, if that's the case, then they picked a name with very common connections!! Incidentally, the name George comes from the Greek and means farmer.

I think that you're just going to have to "suck it up" little one. Maybe you can be affectionately known as Geordie :) and may all your dragons be sleeping!!

Have a g(e)orgeous day!!
