The British royal family has so many sweet nicknames for each other [1], it's almost hard to keep track. Our hearts recently melted into mush after learning that Prince George refers to Prince William as "Pops," [2] and now we're preparing for our hearts to dissolve yet again, because we just found out what Kate Middleton calls Princess Charlotte.
The Duchess of Cambridge was recently spotted during a Christmas shopping trip [3] at The Range (a UK discount store), where she reportedly told her 3-year-old daughter, "Get up, Poppet." An onlooker explained that Charlotte was sitting on the floor with her 5-year-old brother George [4].
If Charlotte's moniker sounds familiar, it's because William just so happens to occasionally call Kate "Poppet" from time to time, along with other affectionate names [6] like "darling" and "baby." Ugh, could this family be any darn cuter? We can't wait to see what adorable nicknames Prince Harry and Meghan Markle [7] give to their first child [8]!
