Meghan Markle has said that although she loved the Archie comic strip when she was a child, it was not a factor in her giving the name to her son. Meghan was speaking on the latest episode of her hit podcast, “Archetypes,” with actress Mindy Kaling. Meghan said: “I was alone so much as a child, and also a latchkey kid and I think I read a lot of Archie comic books. Ironically, my son is not named after Archie comic books, but I loved them and collected them.” She added: “My parents split up when I was around two or three years old and I always wanted this sort of cookie cutter-looking, perfect, life, and you looked at that and I romanticized it.”
