The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge have announced the name of their newborn daughter.

The baby has been named Charlotte Elizabeth Diana. She will be known as Her Royal Highness Princess Charlotte of Cambridge.

Charlotte is a name used for Queens and princesses in the past. Elizabeth would be in honour of the baby's great grandmother the current Queen and great-great grandmother the late Queen Mother.

Diana is obviously after Prince William's late mother Diana, Princess of Wales who passed away in 1997. It is a special choice and one that had been hoped for by royal followers. 

It is thought that the new family of four will travel to their country home Anmer Hall over the coming days. The home is on the Sandringham Estate, Norfolk where the Queen is expected to meet the new princess.
