ATALANTA CONSTANCE and ALGY GORDON FANSHAWE Royal - a sister and brother for Anoushka

I'm not sure which is more startling here. Algy, the sort of name not seen since Lenny Henry became Algernon Razzmatazz? Fanshaw, which I guess he should be happy isn't spelled Featherstonehugh? Or Constance, the sort of name guaranteed to make your daughter as contrary as Mary Mary?

Actually, I do know. It's Atalanta. Where the heck did that come from in this dog's dinner of abysmal nomenclature? I mean, it's not a nice name, but at least it seems to have come from somewhere close to the end of the last century.
