Well,  you guys seriously came through, and the UAE royal narrowed his search down to two names, Amigo and Joy. Asking his followers to vote for their favourite name on Instagram. 

Well, the people have spoken, and they picked Joy, which got 51 percent of the votes. 

Sometimes you just need a little bit of “Joy” يسلّم عليكم جوي
