Royal Ripples in Portugal: A Baby Name That Breaks Tradition Princess Eugenie's baby daughter has been christened Adelaide Elizabeth Annina Brooksbank, a name that honors both the British and Portuguese heritage of her parents.
The choice of this moniker marks a subtle shift in the royal family's priorities, blending traditional values with modern sensibilities.
Adelaide itself is a name with a rich history, dating back to 9th century Germany, where it was popularized by the wife of King Otto I.
