PIPPA Middleton has reportedly settled on a Royal Family-inspired name for her newborn daughter.
The sister of Kate Middleton, the Duchess of Cambridge is said to have welcomed her third child, a baby girl, into the world in June.

And now it’s been claimed she and husband James Matthews have decided to call their daughter Rose.
“Rose has been the name of some royals across the centuries, including Mary Tudor, known as ‘Mary Rose’, Queen of France,” a source told the Daily Mail.
The name, which is of Latin origin, also refers to the Rose flower – which is the birth flower of June.
And it’s the floral reference that will be seen as a link to Prince Harry and Meghan Markle‘s daughter Lilibet.
While they chose the name based on a childhood nickname of Queen Elizabeth‘s, they often refer to her as Lili – a variation of the floral moniker Lily.
Pippa and James are also parents to three-year-old son Arthur and daughter Grace, one.
The 38-year-old was last seen out in public as she joined her sister at Queen Elizabeth’s Platinum Jubilee concert in early June.
While she has not confirmed any of her pregnancies publicly, she showed off what appeared to be a large baby bump as she donned a green dress for the occasion.
News of their latest arrival’s name comes after the couple, who married in May 2017, reportedly purchased a £15 million mansion in Pippa’s childhood village.
According to reports, the house has 30 rooms and sits on 15 acres of land.
It’s also said to be just 20 minutes away from Pippa’s parents’ home in Bucklebury, Berkshire.
In addition, Pippa and James – the brother of reality TV star Spencer Matthews – apparently arranged the sale privately as the house wasn’t on the general market.
