the first name of Queen Victoria was Alexandrina. It was only at the baptism service that the name Victoria (after her mother) was announced?

I'd heard about the name - I didn't know about the timing of the announcement. Thanks.

She was baptised Alexandrina after one of her godparents, Tsar Alexander I of Russia, and Victoria, after her mother. First official documents of her reign used both names but apparently she requested that Alexandrina be dropped

Prince Charles might choose a different regnal name when he becomes King.

[joggerjayne]

No, I didn't know that.
Great trivia fact :-D

Edward VII was Albert. So was George VI.

[jourdain2]

Apparently our Queen was asked which of her names she wished to choose as her regnal name and she was quite astonished. Read it somewhere.
Charles has quite a few to choose from and 'Charles' doesn't have a great record as a regnal name, so he may choose another - given his age, perhaps not, but it's up to him.

Yes, I did.
