HRH Archie...where's his pal Jughead?
He was named after Harry’s commanding officer in Afghanistan.

It is a full name in Scotland.
you keep saying that but I've never seen that before - do you just know someone named Archie from Scotland?

I hoped it was, as well.
Archie is an old Scottish name. It is not a diminutive of Archibald. The English added the -bald to the Scottish name. Try not to be provincial Americans.
You’re posting on an American website. If you don’t want to hear from Americans, you are more than welcome to switch to posting on “London Urban Moms & Dads”. Perhaps the royal thread count would drop a bit here. We can only hope.

Luckily for Archie, he has the Royal Family.
