  • Did he keep the "His Highness" title after 1917? Astrotrain 19:40, 18 May 2006 (UTC)

It says in the article that he renounced it, but is there an outside source we could check, just to be sure. IMHO I don't think he would have kept it, as His Highness the Marquess of Cambridge just doesn't sound right. Prsgoddess187 11:12, 19 May 2006 (UTC)

I was thinking that since the "His Highness" style was a British one, so would not need to be renounced. Of course no evidence is avaliable that I can find to back this up. Astrotrain 12:19, 19 May 2006 (UTC)
Good point, I keep forgetting that HH was a British creation. Us silly Americans! I will check the web when I get a chance, and see what I can find. Prsgoddess187 13:05, 19 May 2006 (UTC)
I've had a look at the wording of the Royal Warrant- and it does state that he relinquishes "His Highness" along with the Teck titles. See [1] Astrotrain 12:25, 28 May 2006 (UTC)
