Today The Royal Family grew by one. Duchess Kate and Duke William welcomed their third child, a baby boy this morning. To be exact, he was born at 11:01 A.M. Even though the name of the new prince hasn’t been announced, we did get to see the first glimpse at his tiny face.

This is Kate and William’s third child and second boy. Their eldest, Prince George is 4 years old, and Princess Charlotte is 2 years old. It’s also a big day for Charlotte because not only did she become a big sister, but she is also the first royal to have the Succession to the Crown Act be enforced.

Twitter couldn’t contain its excitement or humor over the news of the royal birth. Many people pointed out that Kate looked gorgeous and put together for giving birth to a human a few hours ago.

Well versed Royal Family fans didn’t let Kate’s choice of a red dress and white collar go unnoticed. It paid homage to the late Princess Diana’s red outfit she wore after Prince Harry was born.

Of course, there were tons of tweets taking hilarious guesses at what the new Prince’s name will be.
Desperately trying to start a rumor the royal baby’s name is “Aiden.”

I think, seeing as how he's died since the last one was born, that it would be a fine tribute if they called the new #RoyalBaby Prince. Prince Prince.

Netflix got in on the Twitter fun. They tweeted that now with another heir to the throne their show The Crown won’t be ending anytime soon.

One fan actually mapped the new prince’s birth chart.
Sun in Taurus; Moon in Leo. Fitting combo for the #royalbaby

There were plenty of tweets making fun of George not being the only boy in the family now.
Prince George paces the playroom, "Little brother, eh? 'Little' is the keyword. Small. Insignificant. THIRD-in-line." He holds a jeweled dagger up to the light. "No one can replace a STAR!"
"I like pie. I am girl," says Charlotte.
"Shut your biscuit-hole, the HEIR is talking!" pic.twitter.com/6nkjMfrYjM— Chris Schleicher (@cschleichsrun) April 23, 2018
"The name of the royal baby…" said 4-year-old Prince George, flipping down his shades and raising a pacifier to his lips, "is George."

Jokes aside the new prince and fifth in line for the throne is healthy and happy, and that’s all that matters.
