Editor's Notes
Before 1917, members of the British Royal Family had no surname, according to the Royal Family’s website, but only the name of the house or dynasty to which they belonged.
Just as children can take their surnames from their father, so sovereigns normally take the name of their ‘House’ from their father.
For this reason, Queen Victoria’s eldest son Edward VII belonged to the House of Saxe-Coburg-Gotha (the family name of his father Prince Albert). Edward VII’s son George V became the second king of that dynasty when he succeeded to the throne in 1910.
This changed in 1917, when George V specifically adopted Windsor, not only as the name of the ‘House’ or dynasty, but also as the surname of his family, due to negative associations with Germany during the war.
The Royal Family name of Windsor was confirmed by The Queen after her accession in 1952.
In 1960, the Queen and Duke of Edinburgh decided that they would like their own direct descendants to be distinguished from the rest of the Royal Family, as Windsor is the surname used by all the male and unmarried female descendants of George V.
Therefore, the Queen’s descendants, other than those with the style of Royal Highness and the title of Prince or Princess, or female descendants who marry, carry the name of Mountbatten-Windsor, which reflects Phillip’s surname.
