Princess Eugenie reveals name of newborn daughter Adelaide
Princess Eugenie and her husband, Jack Brooksbank, have announced the name of their newborn daughter, Adelaide Elizabeth Annina Brooksbank. The infant was born on August 3 in Lisbon, Portugal, weighing 6lb 9oz.
Eugenie shared the news via Instagram, explaining that the name honors three people the couple admires. The middle name Elizabeth serves as a tribute to her late great-grandmother, Queen Elizabeth II. The name Adelaide is noted for its connections to both English and Portuguese history, potentially referencing Queen Adelaide or Maria Adelaide of Portugal. The name Annina is linked to a personal connection for the couple that has not been publicly disclosed.
Adelaide is the couple's third child and their first daughter, following their two sons, August and Ernest. The birth in Lisbon marks a rare instance of a British royal family member being born overseas. Adelaide currently ranks 15th in the line of succession to the British throne.
