WITH the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge expecting a second child, speculation is mounting as to what name they will choose.

Royal biographer Andrew Morton, who penned the life story of the late Princess of Wales, has stepped into the fray, telling the Sun on Sundaythat a daughter would be named Elizabeth Diana Windsor.

"Close friends to William and Kate have told me that if it is a girl they want to name the baby after Diana," Morton says. "They discussed girls' names before George was born and now they're hoping the next one is a girl so they can carry out their wish to honour William's mother. They're not too thrilled at the thought it will be shortened to Princess Di. But it won't change their minds."

Morton also speculated that reversing the names - to Diana Elizabeth - would displease royals who were still smarting from the "hostility" between the Princess of Wales and the royal family.

Meanwhile, Royal aides have told the Mail on Sunday that the Duchess will return to official duties next month, after suffering from acute morning sickness: "There will be engagements in October and November. We just haven't announced them yet."

Australian feminist commentator Germaine Greer has weighed in on the Duchess's recent health challenges, telling Newsweek Europe: The girl is too thin. Meanwhile, she is vomiting her guts up and shouldn't have been made to go through all this again so soon. It's not so much that she has to be a womb, but she has to be a mother. I would hope after this one she says, 'That's it. No more'."

"Kate is a great deal more intelligent than the rest of the royals. She has been put in charge of William. She has a bastard of a job," she says.
