Princess Sofia and Prince Carl Philip's baby name has been unveiled!
The Swedish royal couple welcomed a daughter and their fourth child on Friday, and now King Carl XVI Gustaf has officially announced the baby's full name.
As is custom, the king declared the moniker at a council meeting at the Royal Palace in Stockholm on Monday, although he later apologised for making a mistake with the baby's first name.
A statement released by the palace read: "At the council meeting, His Majesty the King informed the government that the child, who is eighth in line to the throne, will be named Ines Marie Lilian Silvia, with the given name Ines.
"Princess Ines is granted the Duchess of Västerbotten.

According to The Bump, Ines is a girl's name of Spanish origin, which is also related to the Greek name Agnes, meaning "pure" or "holy".
The baby's middle names, Silvia and Maria, are touching tributes to Carl Philip's mother, Queen Silvia, and Sofia's mother, Marie Hellqvist.

The baby's ducal title, Duchess of Västerbotten, was last held by King Carl's mother, Princess Sibylla of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha, who passed away in 1972.
