George? George? Boehner & Pelosi have both been waiting — Putin called Obama to find out if he’d heard anything.
Kim Kardashian and Kanye West were on pins and needles worried that the child might be named South or East, the only compass points that haven’t been used.
MLB Commissioner Bud Selig was standing by with attorneys should the royal parents decide to call the prince — Fielder.

His business card will no doubt weigh three pounds.But which George will influence his growth — his personality?
There have been six who have been king. George I was German. George III lost the American Revolution. George VI was the heroic figure portrayed in the movie “The King’s Speech.”
There is no end to the George’s that might be role models.
If he is inspired by American leadership, he can look to Washington or Bush. He has a good start on Clooney looks. We hope he’ll avoid Seinfeld’s George Costanza.
Yesterday, some grouch complained about the royal family saying “who do these people think they are?” Well, quite simply, they’re a first time mom and dad — and George.
