Honestly, I see all these references to an American comic and wonder why anybody thinks it has any relevance at all to anything in the UK.

People in Britain are not thinking of Archie comics when they hear this name - they’re just not well enough known there.

As a traditionalist, I’m not a fan of the name because I don’t think it matches royal tradition and we are talking about somebody who will probably be the nephew and then the first cousin of a King - they can’t get away from that. They should have done what they normally do in the family - give the kid the formal names but call them something different at home - King Edward VIII was David, to his family and close friends, for example.
