Baby Archie May Not Have a Title Now, but He Will Be a Prince One Day – Here’s Why
Prince Harry and Meghan Markle keep interpreting royal traditions with a modern twist.
While they did a postbaby photocall in a real-life castle, they also debuted their baby's name on Instagram just like many nonroyal parents do.
That name - Archie Harrison Mountbatten-Windsor - basically confirms reports that baby Archie will not use a royal title.
Mountbatten-Windsor is the official last name used for members of the queen's family who do not have the "royal highness" styling.
While he could have been called "Lord Archie" by virtue of being Prince Charles's grandchild, it seems Harry and Meghan's son will be known by the more "simple" title of Master Archie.
That will change in the future, however, and he'll technically become Prince Archie!Master Archie will become Prince Archie when Charles becomes king.Per the rules of peerage, which dictate British royal titles, Archie will become a prince when his grandfather Prince Charles becomes king.
