I did believe it the minute I read it on Nick's post. It was about time for George to be used again. They don't tend to use too many names do they? George, Harold, William, Charles, Henry, Edward etc. We already have all of them except a Henry(??) or a George so wasn't too difficult.
After Louis Walsh. Kate is a big X factor fan. Small pool of names to go with their small gene pool. Let's hope there is a cure for baldness in 25 years time.

with your surname I'm guessing you have inside knowledge. You were right as well (as was I, just got to remember where I posted it now!)

Alexander George would have been much nicer if they had to have it - George is so bloody old fashioned.
And why Louis? A long-dead great uncle neither of them have ever met, bizarre

Old-fashioned names are back in fashion these days, though:

How do they know what prehistoric baby names were
proper quality journalism, I expect.
Prince Harry is actually Henry .
Link doesn't work...
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prince_Harry_of_Wales
I'd forgotten that, he's been known as Harry for seemingly all but a year or so of his life
I remember the name being officially announced as "Henry, to be known as "Harry" - I think there was some influence from Henry V.
Why give one name but call him another?
"I christen you Darren, to be known as Tarquin."
I thought that was possibly the case which was why I had put a double question mark after it.
Because Harry is a diminutive of Henry in the same way that Jack is a diminutive of John.
But ~ Harry and Henry have the same amount of letters so how can it be a diminutive?(as do Jack and John)
Just the term for it - I suppose it counts as a nickname, pet name or baby name.
Blame the English language
