Prince George Had a Very Special Nickname for Queen ElizabethInStyleAdCelebrityPrince GeorgePrince George Had a Very Special Nickname for Queen ElizabethHe was the only royal great-grandchild that got to use it.By Staff Author Published on October 28, 2024 @ 02:12PMQueen Elizabeth II attending the Queen’s Body Guard for ScotlandPhoto: Jane Barlow/WPA Pool/Getty ImagesPrince George’s arrival in 2013 made history in more ways than one: the British throne got a new heir and Queen Elizabeth helped revise the laws that governed the line of succession—she made it so that regardless of Prince William and Kate Middleton welcoming a son or daughter, the new arrival would be able to take the throne ahead of their siblings. That royal shift apparently cemented a very special bond between Prince George and his great-grandmother, as he eventually gave her a sweet nickname that nobody else was allowed to use.George is only 2-and-a-half and calls her ‘gan-gan.’ She always leaves a little gift or something in their room when we go and stay and that just shows, I think, her love for her family,” Middleton explained in Elizabeth at 90: A Family Tribute, a BBC documentary about the queen that aired in 2016.In a special Christmas message that the late queen gave after George’s arrivaal, she paid tribute to the future monarch, saying: “Here at home my own family is a little larger this Christmas. As so many of you will know, the arrival of a baby gives everyone the chance to contemplate the future with renewed happiness and hope.”
