It is not unusual to be assigned a nickname from family and close friends, nor for the royals in Europe.
The castle confirms: She gets nothing
In the British royal family, several of the private nicknames have already been made public, such that Queen Camilla (76) is called “Gaga” within the family. While Prince William (41) is called both “babe” and “baldy” by his wife, Princess Kate (42).
Now a “secret” nickname from the Swedish royal family has also been revealed, namely Crown Princess Victoria’s (46).
Because within the inner circle, since she was little, she has gone by a completely different name than Victoria, writes Svensk Damtidning.
Radiant in reuse
The Crown Princess goes by the nickname “Oja”, and in an interview with SVT from the age of 15, she reveals why.
– I think it was that Carl Philip called me “Toya” when I was little, and then it just became “Oja” in the end, the crown princess explained in an interview at the time.
The Swedish newspaper can also reveal that Prince Carl Philip (44) goes by the nickname “Lippi” from close family, but not from his wife, Princess Sofia (39).
Does not greet his sister
According to the website, Princess Madeleine will go by the nickname “Len”, and not “Madde” as she is called in public and in the press.
