Behold, subjects of the Crown and also Americans who are into this sort of thing: If Prince William and Kate's baby is a girl, she shall be given the title of "Princess." The Queen has decreed it! And if you're wondering why this needs an announcement, it actually required the Queen to change the rules by "issuing new Letters Patent." Before, a girl born to a prince could only be called "Lady." Only a first-born son would get a royal title. But Queen Elizabeth II is getting with the times, and she decided a little baby girl should get the same royal treatment as a little baby boy. This lays the groundwork for Will and Kate's child to someday inherit the throne, regardless of gender. Of course, all our little girls are princesses.Image may be NSFW.
