I mean, it's just another person having a baby really. I'd go with Martha, it's my name but also would make a great royal name.

I think it's great for the two of them and I would have to say they should call it Mark.

I hadn't actually heard about it, but congratulations to them it sounds awesome. I would call it Paul.
