British kings

If you want a traditional British name for your baby boy, you can't get much more British than a monarchical name. Look back through the history of the royal family and you'll find a plethora of Georges, Williams and Edwards, the names of the three British kings. The most recent George in the Windsor family is of course Prince George, firstborn child of the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge.

Queen Victoria

Queen Victoria had four sons, and thanks to the royals' love of multiple middle names, they provide several options for a royal boy name.
