Royal Baby: Charlotte Elizabeth Diana – The new princess of Cambridge
Kensington Palace tweeted that the baby will be known as: "Her Royal Highness Princess Charlotte of Cambridge."
Bookmakers had said the favourite was 'Alice' after a flurry of last minute bets, knocking 'Charlotte' off the top spot.
The birth was marked this afternoon by gun salutes across London.
Some £1m was wagered on the name of the couple's second child, bookmakers estimated.
Bettting firm Ladbrokes said that since the baby was born, punters had placed more bets on the potential name than on the General Election.
The birth of the royal princess was marked this afternoon by gun salutes across London.
As Big Ben chimed 2pm, 41 volleys rang out across Hyde Park fired by the King's Troop Royal Horse Artillery, and there was a 62-gun salute at Tower Bridge.
