Breaking news everyone! Jordan has named her baby. I repeat, Jordan has named her baby.

And as befits a mother who called her second son Junior, presumably to make it easier to remember which is the younger one, she has, after three weeks of deep, nigh on Rodin-esque thinking, opted for a similarly subtle style of moniker for her little girl. Ladies and gentleman, LiS is proud to introduce you to... Princess Tiaamii.

Yes, we're thinking the same thing as you: thank God that daily question has been resolved of what one is supposed to do when playing Scrabble in Welsh and one is left with a surplus of vowels. But that second name is not just about board games. Good heavens, no. According to Jordan in OK! it was coined by the synapses of the proud father Peter Andre because it's taken from their mothers' names - Thea and Amy. But, but Peter, the great unwashed are no doubt crying - have you never learned how to spell your mum's name properly? Foolish naysayers! They've chucked in the extra vowels, according to Jordan, to make it look "a bit different." Oh, and there's an accent over the first a. But of course there is. But why not just stick with the more parochial "Princess"? Well, according to Peter, some people thought it "a bit much", hence the almost Danish-looking Ti- uh, whatever. Ladies and gentlemen, you finish the joke
