I think Charlotte was in line to become queen, but she died in childbirth

England mourned her - she was very popular (1796 - 1817)

Opened the way for Victoria who was a niece to George IV

Great mind or something Joono I was thinking the same thing.

I hope one of her names is Diana

Not a serious concern, but  there nothing wrong with an interest in the British Royal family and predicting the name of the new royal baby. There isn't a new baby 4th in line to the British throne born every day.
