3. Common name in the Royal Family nowadays

although the two men named Albert to ascend to the throne took different regnal names in honor of the original Prince Albert.

My expectations are the traditional royal names for heirs apparent: Edward (IX), George (VII/VIII), William (VI), Henry (IX).

Outside chance: Daniel in honor of his deceased grandmother (much like Edward VII's first son, Albert Victor, would presumably have reigned as Victor I if he hadn't died).

15. How about Arthur?

we need another King Arthur.
Arthur is a cool old name, like Walter.

I've known two Walters in my life and they were both very nice people.

Arthur --Arthur Rubinstein, Art Garfunkel --2 great musical talents.
Arthur Miller --a great playwright.

I think Prince Chuck, aka William's father, would be a little irked.
