英国哈里王子与萨塞克斯公爵夫人梅根‧马克尔周三于社群媒体上公布,将两人的新生儿命名为阿奇·哈里森‧蒙巴顿‧温莎。

该贴文还附上了一张两人与阿奇、伊莉莎白女王、菲利普亲王和梅根的母亲多利亚‧拉格兰的合影。

有别于王室家族的传统,哈里与梅根并未选择向特定王室先人致敬的名字。

除此之外,到目前为止,两人也决定不为孩子冠上贵族头衔。

「美国有线电视新闻网」(CNN)的王室记者麦克斯‧福斯特在报导里说道:「两人选择了他们喜爱的名字,而非传统家族名字」。

「他们这么做也反映了他们这一代人,更关注现在,而不是过去」。

阿奇是伊莉莎白女王的第八位曾孙,也是英国王位第七顺位继承人。

他除了承袭母亲梅根双种族的非裔血统,也将有资格在英国国籍外同时获美国公民身分。

英國哈里王子與薩塞克斯公爵夫人梅根‧馬克爾週三於社群媒體上公布,將兩人的新生兒命名為阿奇‧哈里森‧蒙巴頓‧溫莎。

該貼文還附上了一張兩人與阿奇、伊莉莎白女王、菲利普親王和梅根的母親多利亞‧拉格蘭的合影。

有別於王室家族的傳統,哈里與梅根並未選擇向特定王室先人致敬的名字。

除此之外,到目前為止,兩人也決定不為孩子冠上貴族頭銜。

「美國有線電視新聞網」(CNN)的王室記者麥克斯‧福斯特在報導裡說道:「兩人選擇了他們喜愛的名字,而非傳統家族名字」。

「他們這麼做也反映了他們這一代人,更關注現在,而不是過去」。

阿奇是伊莉莎白女王的第八位曾孫,也是英國王位第七順位繼承人。

他除了承襲母親梅根雙種族的非裔血統,也將有資格在英國國籍外同時獲美國公民身分。

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, Duchess of Sussex, announced Wednesday on social media, that they have named their newborn: Archie Harrison Mountbatten-Windsor.

The announcement accompanied a picture of the couple with Archie, Queen Elizabeth, Prince Philip, and Doria Ragland - Meghan’s mother.

Against the trend in the royal family, Harry and Meghan did not choose a name to honor any particular royal ancestor.

Additionally, for the time being, the couple has decided not to use an aristocratic title for their child.

CNN's royal correspondent Max Foster reported, "Instead of a traditional royal name, they chose a name they loved."

Foster said, "What they are very much doing is reflecting their generation. They are not looking to history, they are looking to now."

Archie, the eighth great-grandchild of Queen Elizabeth, is seventh in line to the British throne.

He has African-American heritage through Meghan, whose mother is biracial. Archie is a British national and is eligible to obtain U.S. citizenship.
