Yes exactly. I was free to name him whatever I liked, but at this point it's too neat to break the tradition.

- rvense 3y agoAnother question from a country where only the king does this: Is it part of your legal name, or just a convention? (Also, does it make your feel like royalty?)
- thrtythreeforty 3y agoI'd have to check to be certain, but I am pretty sure we didn't put it on birth certificates. It's convention only - some businesses (notably banks) have a "suffix" field to help disambiguate customers, but many of them are drop-downs which stop at "IV" for some reason. What really makes me feel like royalty is not the name, it's the throne room I had installed in my summer home in the Bahamas. That and requiring everyone I meet to call me "sire." (/s)
