i'm angry that anyone cares


You live in Finland, you don't understand the importance of the Throne as it applies to the Commonwealth. Perhaps your disdain for anything monarchical stems from Finland being under Swedish or Slavic monarchs for most of their history.

I'm angry the Prince of Cambridge name is George. Why couldn't they be original and pick a new name, like one that would be new. Something Anglo-Saxon or Scottish Gaelic. Malcolm would have been my choice.


the swedish royal family picked estelle, which is a french name with little to no history in sweden (i think it was a great aunt? that had it) and it pissed me off

atleast pick something classic. malcolm would work i think, but im, not sure if its a name that have been running in their family

It's somewhere in their family. The House of Windsor has ancestors within the old Monarchy of Scotland, where there was Malcolms.

In a physical sense, yes. In a cultural sense, they're extremely important.

The whole institution of monarchy in england is only still around because of tradition. Not to mention I guarantee they've been planning and maybe even focus group testing the name of the child.
