Princess Beatrice welcomed her second child in January 2025 — and the baby’s name appeared to have a sweet nod to Queen Elizabeth II.
Beatrice and her husband, Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi, announced the birth of their daughter Athena Elizabeth Rose Mapelli Mozzi on January 29.
Beatrice and Edoardo decided to give their firstborn daughter the middle name Elizabeth, making her Sienna Elizabeth Mapelli Mozzi, who entered the world on September 18, 2021.
It has become a common practice for royal family members to honor the memory of the late queen or her husband, Prince Philip. (Prince Philip passed away on April 9, 2021, at 99, while the queen departed on September 8, 2022, at 96.)

The queen and Philip’s second child, Princess Anne, was born Anne Elizabeth Alice Louise on August 15, 1950.
Anne shared a special connection with the late queen and, following her mother’s passing on September 8, 2022, accompanied the queen’s coffin from Balmoral, Scotland, to Edinburgh, and then to London, where the queen was laid to rest.
Zara Tindall
Elizabeth’s daughter, Anne, and her first husband, Captain Mark Phillips, welcomed their daughter, Zara, on May 15, 1981. The royal’s full name is Zara Anne Elizabeth Philips.
Zara changed her last name to Tindall following her marriage to British rugby player Mike Tindall in 2011.
