Most babies utter "mama" or "dada" as their first word, but Archie Mountbatten-Windsor had another rather surprising term hidden up his sleeve. During a surprise appearance on The Late Late Show [2] this week, Prince Harry embarked on a tour of Los Angeles led by host James Corden, and he couldn't help but gush over his smart son [3], who will turn 2 years old this May.

"My son is now just over a year and a half. He is hysterical. He's got the most amazing personality," Harry said while riding atop a double-decker bus. "He's already putting three, four words together; he's already singing songs." When James asked what his first word was, Harry proudly replied, "Crocodile . . . three syllables." Perhaps he, Archie, and Meghan Markle [4] have been watching reruns of The Crocodile Hunter at home? Or maybe Archie reads a lot of books featuring crocodiles before bedtime? Either way, there's no denying he's on the path to being one smart cookie [5], just like his parents.

Watch Harry's entire interview with James below, and fast-forward to the 8:50 mark to watch him beam with pride over his son's impressive budding vocabulary.
