The newest member of Britain's Royal family made his debut yesterday.

Described by dad, Prince Edward as "small, cute and cuddly," the as-yet-unnamed child of the Queen's youngest son and his wife, 42-year old Sophie, was delivered via C-section and weighed 6 lbs. 2 oz at birth.

Buckingham Palace said they were "absolutely thrilled" at the birth. The baby is the eighth grandchild of Queen Elizabeth II and her husband, Prince Philip.

The 43-year-old Edward told reporters at Frimley Park Hospital outside London that he and his wife, the Countess of Wessex, had not yet decided on a name. The baby is expected to have the title Viscount Severn.

The couple have a 4-year-old daughter, Lady Louise.
