No, no English names! James! James! James!

James is a common English name, though I guess it did come from Old French or something of the like.

Arthur is better, it just seems more interesting and less generic than James, both as a name for royalty and as a name in general.

Besides, if the boy ever became king, they'd have a King Arthur, and that would just be neat.

It's also a common English name, in that lots of English (and people descended from English) people are named James.

Besides, are the British royals even Scottish?

They're descended from the House of Stuart, so they're more Scottish than they are English.
