Princess Eugenie has named her baby daughter Adelaide Elizabeth Annina Brooksbank, she has announced.
The daughter of Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor welcomed the child with her husband Jack Brooksbank earlier this month.
Princess Eugenie said the names are from people she and Jack 'love and admire, past and present'.
The King's niece wrote on Instagram: '2 weeks ago today we welcomed our girl to the world. And since then we've had the most special, cosy and love-filled time.
'We are so happy to share Adelaide Elizabeth Annina Brooksbank. Named after three people we love and admire past and present, including her Great-Grandmother who we hold close in our hearts.
'Her name is part of English and Portuguese history, two places we love and call home.'
Referring to her other two children, she added: 'Augie and Ernie are already the best big brothers.'
The announcement was accompanied by a photo of the newborn sleeping and was greeted with messages of goodwill from her many followers.
