    Dynastic unions aren't unheard of. For example, Emperor Charles I of Austria and the Holy Roman Empire was also King Charles V of Spain.


    Archduke Charles I of Austria, Emperor Charles V of the HRE, King Charles I of Spain.

      I was under the impression that Charles would adopt a different name upon coming King anyway. Isn't that Windsor tradition? Like he might be another George or Edward instead of a Charles.

      Given his maternal grandmother's healthy dislike for Edward VIII and Charles's close attachment to her, it's unlikely he'd be an Edward.

      He might be a George as a gesture of respect for his maternal grandfather. I suspect neither Philip nor Arthur would be chosen, although we very nearly have had a real 'King Arthur' on several occasions, but assassination and natural death intervened. Who knows? He might choose Richard, William, Stephen or Mary.

          King Noddy.

          If for no other reason than the terrible puns the newspapers (ok I actually mean me) can come up with.

                The media can hype 'Princess Mary' all it wants, but to me she'll always be a Tasmanian real estate agent who married an inbred Dane.

                            Princess Madeleine is hot!

                            Prince William should hook up with her.

                              A tasmanian who married an inbred? I guess they were perfect for each other...

                                Just looked up a photo of Madeleine... not too keen on her... too Swedish looking for my liking.

                                Princess Alexandria however....
