But after several embarrassing setbacks, the Duke and Duchess have seemingly delighted fans by secretly launching a “sign up” page for their new Archewell website.

Fans who now search archewell.com are greeted with a registration page, where they can sign up to receive emails about Archewell’s activities and initiatives.

The sign up page also offers an explanatory breakdown of the Archewell name, which states it was conceptualised specifically for its two syllable meaning.

According to the website, “Arche” was chosen for its Greek word meaning “source of action”, which also inspired their son’s name Archie Mountbatten-Windsor.

What’s more, the addition of “well” to the charity name refers to its definition: “a plentiful source or supply; a place we go to dig deep”.

The couple previously explained the not-for-profit’s origin in an official statement, which was released via a spokesperson back in April.

“Before SussexRoyal, came the idea of Arche – the Greek word meaning source of action,” the couple stated.

“We connected to this concept for the charitable organisation we hoped to build one day, and it became the inspiration for our son’s name. To do something of meaning, to do something that matters.

“Archewell is a name that combines an ancient word for strength and action, and another that evokes the deep resources we each must draw upon.”
