Prince William’s wife, the Duchess of Cambridge, “was safely delivered of a daughter” Saturday morning, less than three hours after checking into St. Mary’s Hospital in London, royal officials said.

Britons have for weeks been betting that it would be a princess and all the top bets for the baby’s name have been for girls. Alice and Charlotte are the clear favorites, followed by Elizabeth, Victoria and Diana – all names with strong connections to royal tradition.
