Kate Middleton baby betting suspended last week by Ladbrokes, with rumours that the future Queen will give birth next summer

Spencer & Frances are early favourites for the name of the Royal baby according to Ladbrokes.

The bookies were forced to suspend betting last week with with rumour rife that Kate was pregnant and have since re-opened the book making a 2012 birth the 4/11 favourite. It's 7/2 we wait until 2013 and the bookies also offer 250/1 that their first child is born exactly a year to the day after they married.

Summer looks far likelier however with a July birth the favourite at 3/1. It's 4/1 each of two for June & August and 12/1 we wait until next November.

Punters who want to speculate on the full name of the baby can also take advantage of the bookies each-way offering where they will pay out on middle names as well as the christian name at a fifth of the original odds. Frances & Spencer are the joint 10/1 favourites while Caroline (33/1), Helen (40/1) and Thomas at 66/1 are among the outsiders on a list full of names of Royal Family members both past and present as well as popular modern choices.

It's a straight coin-toss at even money either side regarding the sex of the baby and royal twins can also be backed at 8/1.

Alex Donohue of Ladbrokes told Bettingpro: "It looks like it's a case of when and not if regarding the Royal baby. Attention now turns to the name with several classics leading the way and if there's a birth exactly a year on we'll pay out a King's ransom."
