Meghan Markle's name was removed from Archie Harrison's birth certificate in 2019, changing it from "Rachel Meghan The Duchess of Sussex" to just "Her Royal Highness The Duchess of Sussex," as a move to align with royal protocol, similar to Princess Diana's birth certificate, though it sparked rumors of a "snub" to Kate Middleton and was described by Meghan's spokesperson as a Palace directive, not her own choice, adding complexity to royal naming conventions.

Many of Markle's favorite foods are relatively simple in concept: Avocado toast, veggie quinoa, fish tacos, pasta.
