Tired but beaming, Meghan and Prince Harry showed the public their baby son's face for the first time on Wednesday, 8 May, and also revealed his name: Archie.

The royal couple said their son, seventh in line to the British throne, is named Archie Harrison Mountbatten-Windsor.

Mountbatten-Windsor is a surname used by some members of the royal family.

The couple did not choose an aristocratic title for the baby, who is not a prince but could have been given a title with "Lord" before his first name.

The couple did not disclose why they had chosen the names — though the meaning of Harrison, “son of Harry,” could be a clue.
