Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have named their son Archie Harrison Mountbatten-Windsor


You read that right.
The newest royal baby has a name, and it's a perfect blend of Britain's stuffiness and America's obsession with Riverdale. The famously transcontinental couple of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle named their son Archie Harrison Mountbatten-Windsor, and there's an adorable family picture to prove it.
Archie made his first public appearance, sans name, on Wednesday morning. That was the first time Markle had also been seen in public after her son's Monday birth, seeing as she'd skipped the traditional appearance outside St. Mary's Hospital on the birthdate. Watch the newest addition to the Sussex family meet the world here.
