It's a Prince!

[Lord Wilingram]

I hope Madeleine and Mr. O'Neill will go with a traditional name like Erik or Oscar!!!

As a Royal heraldist I am a bit disappointed at the lack of notification regarding the Coat of Arms of both Prince Nicolas (since his dukedom has been confirmed I don't see any problem) and Princess Sofia, and whether they have been appointed to the Order of the Seraphim.

By the way, congratulations all round.

Princesses Estelle and Leonore received the Seraphim at their baptism, so Prince Nicolas may get it then.

Christopher O'Neill became a Commander of the Royal Order of the Polar Star on his marriage, so it is perhaps too early to expect either he or Sofia to receive the Seraphim Order.

It seems that Prince Nicholas was presented with the insignia of Knight of the Royal Order of the Seraphim on 11 October 2015 but was a member from his birth in June. He seems also to have been a Knight of the Order of Charles XIII since birth.
