The Duke of Cambridge met with Sir Jerry Mateparae, New Zealand High Commissioner to the UK, and the Dean of Westminster, who joked about the eagerly anticipated name, saying: 'Jerry would like it to be Jerry.'
Australian High Commissioner Alexander Downer also suggested Alexander, to which William said cryptically: 'Funny you should say that....It’s a good name,' The Sun reports.
The name of Kate and William's third child has not yet been announced, but is expected to be made public in the coming days.
Alexander is one of the tipped favourites, although Albert and Arthur remain the most popular among bookies.
Alexander is also one of Prince George’s middle names, as his full name is George Alexander Louis. Prince William’s full name is William Arthur Philip Louis.
The doting dad also revealed older siblings Prince George and Princess Charlotte are 'very happy...delighted' with the new arrival.
