Australian actress Rebel Wilson wants the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge to name their baby after her, whether it is a girl or a boy.

"I thought I could tell Kate and William that Rebel would be a real good name for the new baby. Royal Rebel," she said.

The 29-year-old Australian also confessed to having a crush on William's younger brother, 30-year-old Prince Harry, reports femalefirst.co.uk.

Asked if there are any British boys she has her eyes on, she told BBC Radio 1: "Tom Hiddleston, yep, wouldn't mind a bit of that. (Prince Harry?) Is he available? Sweet, I might go round there after this."

If she hadn't made it as an actress, the "Pitch Perfect" star would have tried her hand at rapping, and admits she sometimes envies fellow Aussie singer Iggy Azalea.

"I think I had a more serious consideration about being a rapper because a lot of people don't know, I'm very gangster and I come from kind of like the ghetto and I used to have a rap group with my sister. We were just two little white girls living the dream doing mash ups.

"I did my own choreography and crushed a couple of shopping mall talent shows and now I see Iggy Azalea and I'm like, 'That could've been me'," she said.
