The name has a sweet meaning as Lilibet is Queen Elizabeth’s nickname and, of course, Diana is after Harry’s late mom, Princess Diana.

Prince Harry has shared the happy news with all his family back in the United Kingdom.

Lili now joins her big brother Archie, 2, who is very happy to have a little sister.

“On June 4th, we were blessed with the arrival of our daughter, Lili. She is more than we could have ever imagined, and we remain grateful for the love and prayers we’ve felt from across the globe. Thank you for your continued kindness and support during this very special time for our family,” the couple wrote on their Archewell website.

Harry and Meghan asked that those who want to send gifts, to make a donation to organizations working for women and girls: Girls Inc., Harvest HomeCAMFED or Myna Mahila Foundation.

Both will now take parental leave.
