The next royal baby is due to arrive in the coming weeks and bookmakers are going crazy over the arrival of the Prince Harry and Meghan’s first child.

The name of the next baby has been a topic of discussion ever since Meghan confirmed she was expecting, and the public firmly believe they are expecting a girl.

Victoria has emerged as the new favourite at 8/1 ahead of Diana which has seen huge money in recent months and remain second favourite. The favourite boys name is Arthur at 14/1.

You can also back the sex, but as with the public in terms of names – bookmakers believe a girl is most likely and is priced at 8/11 with a boy being evens.

There is also a market on where the baby will be born, with it being evens that it is at the Lindo Wing at St Mary’s Hospital – which is where the three children of Harry’s brother Prince William have been born – indeed it is the same Hospital where William and Harry were born.

OddsMonkey spokesman Peter Watton said: “Everyone is getting excited about the new royal baby, and all we are hearing is news about girls name.

"Bookmakers took huge money for Diana late last year but it is Victoria that has come into just 8/1."
