Lilibet Mountbatten-Windsor
What do you think about the choice of the name?
Lilibet Mountbatten-Windsor
Lilibet is the personal nickname of Queen Elizabeth II.
I am not sure whether the choice of the baby's name is a sign of respect or of disrespect.
I don't care enough to form an opinion.

I think it's a sweet tip of the hat to her great grandmother.

I don't understand how it could be seen as disrespectful.
Parents are allowed (in most cases) to name their children. They chose to honor the Queen and Princess Diana. Love 'em or hate 'em they are/were the child's great grandmother and grandmother.
I could have maybe gone with it being disrespectful if they had named the baby "Queen".

I suspect they're given a list of names that are allowed, and I seriously doubt Lilibet was on that list. Oh well!

Only the young and succulent. I'd hate to have to figure out how to tenderize the queen. That's gotta be tough hen, right there. >.<
