Lilibet

Harry and Megan (the Kourtney and Scott Dissick version of the British Kardashians) have named their half American, half inbred horse child Lilibet. This is apparently what toddler queen Elizabeth called herself because she was too young to pronounce her actual name. A dumbing down, if you will, of the English language. Which seems perfectly apt for these tax payer funded socialites.

The audacity!

Somebody do something!

Sounds like they're trolling the Queen at their kid's expense.

Yes I heard earlier today that they had a kid but I didn't catch the name until just now in your post. Until you explained the reasoning behind the name "Lilibet" I figured it was one of those quintessentially British names like "Nigel" or "Ian" or something. I wonder if she favors Harry or Megan in the looks department? Will the ginger be overwhelming?

Full name Lilibet "Lili" Diana Mountbatten-Windsor.

Better than fucking Aiden or Mackenzie.

Really now? Well I fucked Aiden and Mackenzie and both were pretty damn good!

Really? It and "Little Bit" were common nicknames for girls named Elizabeth around here.

interesting. The only nickname I've ever heard for Elizabeth was Liz.

It's the most common now, but Beth, Betsy, and Betty were all pretty popular. I also know a Lisa who's short for Elisabeth.

Beth, Betsy, Lizzy-Beth, Eliza . . .

Lazy, lousy Lizy Jane.

Little Bit is what I named my penis.

Lilibet was Prince Phillip's pet name for Her Majesty.

Harry and Megan can fuck the fuck off.

Seems like they're trying to signal to the Queen that they still love/respect her, even if they're done with the circus surrounding her.

I remember reading before that Liz and Philip used to love taking vacations to live like "regular people" with as few servants as possible in one of their smaller country homes, like they did before her father died. I'm sure there's a part of her that wishes she could have stepped back from her duties as well, if only her children weren't such fuckups.

Our American "royalty" isn't any better and in some cases came out a lot worse.

Kennedy’s?

Kanye.

Getty, Hilton, Kardashian

Is this a Game of Thrones reference? Not sure who these people are.

The only American royalty I recognize is His Majesty, the King Ad-Rock. He's got a license to ill, for fuck's sake. Does Kanye?

License to ill? Is it chronic?

The Line ended with the death of Norton the First, Emperor of the United States, and Protector of Mexico.

It is a shame that he didn't live to see his idea of a bridge connecting San Franciso to Oakland realized. But at least his currency was recognized by the bars of the city during his lifetime, so he had that going for him, which was nice.

So the kid's official legal given name is actually a nickname, from which they will derive another nickname to call her.

Uncle Albert is outraged!

My name is a nickname and I have another nickname that my family ... used to call me.

My Uncle's legal name is "Johnnie" and we always call him "John" for short. Weird world we live in, eh?

Well that's just not riiight.

My grandmother wanted Dad's given name to be Jack, but she actually got told by a judge that Jack wasn't a legal given name (this was 1922), so she had to name him John, and call him Jack.

Does he have a band?
