The name “Louis” does not have a strong British royal pedigree, as it is a French name, commonly used associated with kings, that means “renowned warrior.” However, the name holds a strong personal connection. The Earl Moutbatten of Burma was named Louis, he was also the uncle of Queen Elizabeth‘s husband, the Duke of Edinburgh. Following his service in World War II, Louis Moutbatten was the last Viceroy of India, which was the head of the British colonial administration in the country. In 1979, he was tragically killed by a bomb that was placed in his fishing boat by the Irish Republican Army.
The baby’s two middle names also hold a special meaning. The name “Charles” is, of course, in honor of the baby’s grandfather, Prince Charles. The name “Arthur” is a tradition in the family, as both his father and grandfather have the same middle name.
