Re: The royal twins are born
Well, as expected a lot of family names, which always gets a plus from me. I am a bit surprised that Grace wasn’t used as a middle name.
I like Gabriella Thérèse Marie, both individual names and as a combo. I don’t like any of the names in Jacques Honoré Rainier and the combo is very hard to say, just Jacques Rainier would have been much better, imo. Prince Jacques and Princess Gabriella, not bad all in all and at least they’re a bit different from the rest of the family (having Caroline, Charlene and Charlotte all together gets confusing).

Grace is the middle name of both Jazmin Grimaldi (Albert's illegitimate daughter) and Pauline Ducruet (Princess Stéphanie's daughter), so I think it would be a bit much if they had used it for Gabriella. It would have been nice to see Patricia though, or maybe another name with the same meaning as Grace. I find Gabriella's name quite boring, but it has a nice flow. I'm not a fan of the name Jacques, but I simply adore his middle names.
