Help[Opinions] Re: Our youngest Danish princess was christened today.
in reply to a message by Charlie Blue
Athena is most unexpected! Though when the Greeks needed a monarch long ago, they looked to Denmark for a willing prince if i recall.
Nice one, also, in these times of financial and political issues! Gives a new look to a name too often connected with crises.
And, I don't know how to tell you this ... little Princess Athena shares a name with my dog. She is a West Highland terrier, and was born on the last day of the 2004 Olympics, so she and her 5 siblings all got suitable names on their pedigrees. We never use her official name, though - the breed specifications list "varminty" as a preferred characteristic, and she's that all right. We call her Wuffles, which wouldn't do for a princess.
By the way, is Princess Marie's mum really Francois, not Francoise? Interesting, if so!
