It’s back to school time, even for the royals! For Prince William and Kate Middleton’s only daughter, Princess Charlotte, that also means a whole new school.
As the four-year-old princess moved from Willcocks Nursery School to big bro Prince George’s school, Thomas’s Battersea, there’s one thing on royal watchers’ minds. What will the young princess’s friends and teachers call her?
Reportedly, instead of using her formal royal title, Charlotte will simply go by her first name at school. When it comes to her last name, Charlotte (like her brother George) will use Cambridge.
During his own younger years, Prince William went by William Wales while in school. This followed his father’s, the Prince of Wales, title. When Prince William was given a title of his own, the Duke of Cambridge, this became the surname his children would use. That is, until they get their own titles someday.
