Not Lilibet! This British royal family name is experiencing an explosion in popularity.

The British Royal Family (BCF), like it or not, influences many things in the world – from the choice of toys for children’s birthday parties to the fashion of hairstyles.

The names of BCS members are proven to influence the choice of parents not just in the UK, but around the world.

The name Diana was at the forefront of popularity in various countries in the 80s of the last century – the image of a fabulous princess bride melted the hearts of parents all over the world. A similar surge in interest in the name was expected by literally every new member of the British royal family: from Prince William’s wife Kate to their children George, Charlotte and Louis. True, Meghan Markle was not very lucky: neither the rebellious Duchess herself, nor her children Archie and Lilibet became name trendsetters.

And here comes a sudden surprise – it is worth noting that the name Camille suddenly burst into the charts! Meanwhile, Prince Charles’ second wife, the Duchess of Cornwall (the former Camilla Parker-Bowles), was not popular with the public for many years, to put it mildly. She was directly blamed for the Princess of Wales tragedy, and it took many years before the rumor died down.

Camilla returned to the list of the 1000 most popular baby names in 2001 and has been climbing to the top ever since.

Experts believe two factors are responsible for this: First, people who simply don’t remember Princess Diana and Charles’ adultery scandal are entering childbearing age. And secondly, the name Camilla exists in many cultures and, perhaps, the Duchess of Cornwall’s personality gave her a first boost of popularity, but the matter was no longer up to her.

In the Roman version, Camilla is associated with the Roman noble family nickname Camillius. The children of this family were given to serve in the temples as honorary assistants, and the boys received the title of camillus, and the girls – camilla.

In the Arabic version, the female given name Camilla is called a derivative of the male given name Kamil. Translation – “perfection, maturity.”

Well, the name is really beautiful – it’s good that it has come back into fashion! In Russia, too, there are more and more little Camilles.
