The royal couple announced the news on Instagram shortly after the event on Saturday that saw Archie Harrison Mountbatten-Windsor christened.
Their statement read: "The Duke and Duchess of Sussex are so happy to share the joy of this day with members of the public who have been incredibly supportive since the birth of their son. They thank you for your kindness in welcoming their first born and celebrating this special moment. Their Royal Highnesses feel fortunate to have enjoyed this day with family and the godparents of Archie."
The two-month-old royal was baptised wearing a handmade replica of the royal christening gown, with the original being used as early as 1841.
The statement continued: "The original Royal Christening Robe, made of fine Honiton lace lined with white satin, was commissioned by Queen Victoria in 1841 and first worn by her eldest daughter.
"It was subsequently worn for generations of Royal christenings, including The Queen, her children and her grandchildren until 2004, when The Queen commissioned this handmade replica, in order for the fragile historic outfit to be preserved, and for the tradition to continue."
Close family members Prince Charles and the Duchess of Cornwall, Meghan's mother Doria Ragland and the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge attended the intimate ceremony.
