Have you ever watched Allo Allo? (And no, I don't mean Andy Allo, I mean the British sitcom which had an officer Crabtree in it.)

eyewishuheaven said: I read a questionable (and likely false) report that said Mayte had checked into the hospital under the fake surname of Gregory and since hospitals often refer to the babies as "boy/girl Doe" he became Boy Gregory. Makes sense in theory, but the article was rubbish to me.


Hmm, that does seem pretty plausible. I always thought Gregory was a pretty conventional name for P&M to have chosen for their firstborn (no offense to the Gregorys among us)... but it sure works as an alias.

The two nannies prince hired to care for Mayte during the pregnancy sold their story to News of the World in March 1997... in it, they said the following: "We registered her at her request under an assumed name. We initially chose the name Marline Gong, then the next day we changed it to something more suitable. We chose Gregory for the second name because it's similar to Gregory, a doctor in Argentina famous for his work with the poor, and Ma for the first - because that was the name of a yorkshire terrier prince had bought her. It soon became clear to the hospital who she was, but the name was kept so that her anonymity could be assured."

Something to consider: Prince and Mayte's son would have been 20 years old this year.

Scarlett Mayte or Paisley Sheila for a baby girl.

Tora Tora Christopher or Georgie Morning Fury for a baby boy.

My almost 3-years-old son is called Nate :-)

Whilst I had always liked the idea of doing it,it was actually.my partner who suggested the name, without thought of the lyric. Of course, I reminded her of the line and she thought it was cute, but we continued to consider other names. However, we always kept coming back to Nate whilst many others were dropped off the list.

So, it was kind of inspired, but it's not like we said we must name him after a Prince lyric! lol

To me, it was obvious. I think if he was the King of Pop, then he wanted his son to be the Prince. I don't think he did it to stick it to Prince. Because why? The rivalry was more media based, not real life based. He could have named him Elvis, or John Lennon Jackson, or anything else. I really think, in my own mind, that Prince was a name associated with the King of Pop title.


.


There is a story about why he named his daughter Paris. MJ, Kathy Hilton, and it seems like one other person, had a pact that they'd name their kids Paris. Ergo, Paris Jackson, Paris Hilton - and I want to say the fellow Paris Hilton dated a few years ago was also named Paris. That might have been the third mother to agree to that pact.


Except that he proclaimed himself king sooooo.

My name is Prince: you have to be a Prince before you're king anyway...

I always thought Mj called himself king due to Prince...rude

Actually, that's incorrect. It was Elizabeth Taylor, at an awards ceremony, that called him "the true King of Pop, Rock, and Soul". It was the Soul Train 1st Annual Sammy Davis Jr./Heritage Award in 1989.

.

The shorter "King of Pop" stuck after that.

Mj was a rude individual all around (kids, stealing beatles catalogue from paul after paul talked to him about ownership) who happened to be obsessed with our prince. He named his kids after our prince. Those who say otherwise are covering up for his obsession, because it shows who was the true leader. Grandfather? Please! At least he had good taste in music.

I like Appolonia (Apples)for a girls name.
Thanks for the laughs, arguments and overall enjoyment for the last umpteen years. It's time for me to retire from Prince.org and engage in the real world...lol. Above all, I appreciated the talent Prince. You were one of a kind.

I named my daughter Dominique, after Dominique Dawes from the Betcha By Golly Wow video. I like the name because it could be used for a boy or a girl.
