He Would Not Have Any Aristocratic Title

By the moment he was born, Archie has become seventh in line to the throne after Prince of Wales; Prince William the Duke of Cambridge; Prince George; Princess Charlotte; Prince Louis and his dad Prince Harry. Due to the royal rules, Archie won’t get the title "his royal highness". He could have an aristocratic title like an earl but Harry and Meghan were against it.

Before the official announcement, the speculations did rounds on what name they royal baby will get. From Arthur to Philip and Alexander, there was a handful of classic British royal names that people thought it might be chosen.
