Recently, we learned that Kate Middleton's due date is sometime in mid-April, meaning the parlor game of guessing the name of royal baby #2 is in full swing.
What's the prohibitive favorite, according to one of Britain's top betting markets (yes, you can put actual money on this, and other hilarious outcomes)?
Much like two years ago with Prince George, Prince William and Kate Middleton have given no indication as to whether she's having a boy or girl.
In fact, the couple reportedly didn't find out the gender of their offspring the first time or this time. That's one way to keep the secret from getting out.
The world is speculating wildly that she's having a little sister for Prince George, however, and one name is seen (by the public) as their best option.
Betfair announced this week that Alice leads the pack in terms of bets on Kate and William's baby, with Elizabeth currently occupying the #2 spot.
The company said that this sweet choice is favored by many, as they've had an "unexpected rush of support for Alice over the last 24 hours."
Again, no one even knows if the baby is female yet.
George and Alice, though? We can certainly see it, traditional but fresh. It's also in William's lineage, as Queen Elizabeth's aunt was Princess Alice.
If it's a boy, the odds-on favorites are Richard, James, or Arthur. George was one of the heavy favorites the first time around, for what that's worth.
This is all pointless but fun speculation, of course. No one knows what they're going to do, as the regal couple keeps these things very, very private.
We would bet the farm on William and Kate not picking a name from the below gallery, though. Somehow we don't see these making the short list ...
North West. The spawn of Kimye being named after a direction may be the dumbest thing in human history. At the same time, if she doesn't grow up to have a signature fragrance called North by North West, this is not a planet we wanna be living on.
Kourtney Kardashiand and Scott Disick went relatively conventional with their first two children Mason and Penelope. For the third, however, they opted for a name fit for a Lord: REIGN Aston Disick.
Yes, Miley's real name is Destiny ... which isn't necessarily a bad thing, but Billy Ray and Tish probably guaranteed she'd become a stripper someday with that moniker.
Ironically, Apple is both the name of Gwyneth Paltrow and Chris Martin's daughter and likely the name of a food item forbidden in some rich crazy-person diet she probably follows.
Nicolas Cage named one of his kids Kal-El, a fact not related to him being wasted out of his mind in this mug shot ... although that could explain a lot of things.
Not only did she torture us with The Reader, Kate Winslet is making her newborn's life terrible with Bear as his name. Alicia Silverstone chose this name too. And she chews up Bear's food for him, which is also interesting.
Blanket Jackson is not actually the name of the youngest child of Michael Jackson. It's Prince Michael Jackson II ... not to be confused with Prince Michael Jackson I (also pictured). As for his nickname, he was wearing a Blanket while MJ dangled him over a balcony. Good times.
Suri Cruise, the child of Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes, is a bona fide cutie. Who will have to spell and explain her name approximately 10 times per day as an adult.
Jessica Simpson named her little daughter Maxwell. Perhaps she is trying to overcompensate for giving her an old man's name by putting her in this bikini.
Banjo, the son of Rachel Griffiths and Andrew Taylor, is not only named after a musical instrument, but probably the most absurd one to name a kid after you could think of. With the possible exception of oboe.
