Actually the Royal Family of Hanover's last name is GUELPH, not HANNOVER. Take a look in Vanity Faire at Prince Ernst-August, Guelph is the family name.

Despite all these contributions from worthy readers, I find I am now more confused then before, about all these names.
Would it be possible to do separate posts, where for each House there is - one list for all the House names, and a - second list for the family surname(s) ?

The Belgian royal family is the House of Saxe-Coburg-Gotha and Saalfeld (this last name they lose at the end of the 19th century).
The Saxe-Coburg-Gotha royal house also ruled over Bulgaria (Saxe-Coburg-Kóhary) and Portugal (Saxe-Coburg-Bragança). The British royal family also is the House of Saxe-Coburg-Gotha, but they changed their name German names during WWI for the British name Windsor, as protest against the Germans. So actually the current British Royal Family are the Coburgs, only with another name. The Coburgs who live in Germany, the Dukes and Earls of Saxe-Coburg, aren't members of any Royal Family in Europe, and they use the name Wettin as last name when they are in common.

Schleswig-Holstein-Sonderburg-Glucksburg is the HOUSE name of both Denmark's and Greece's Royals. Their FAMILY name is Oldenburg.As I noted in several previous postings the HOUSE name and the FAMILY names are not always the same. The poster who began this thread was asking for the FAMILY names not the House names. :flower: [/b][/quote] Schleswig-Holstein-Sonderburg-Glucksburg is the HOUSE name of both Denmark's and Greece's Royals. Their FAMILY name is Oldenburg. No No this is a wrong information you are giving the other members in her. The rigth name for the royal family in Denmark are NOT Oldenburg BUT Glúcksborg. If you not trust me then look at this web page: www.kongehuset.dk ther you haf your answer.

Haha thanks for the question, but it has nothing to do with German royals or something like that, it's just a name I chosed as nickname. I find it a good name, but I'm not fan of the German royals. I just liked the name...
Kind regards....

And then you have the story of then Crown Prince Olav of Norway and his trip to Sweden to get engaged to Märtha. The papers were absolutely certain that he was travelling with a false passport, since none of them had found him out... But he had a correct one with the name: Olav Haakonsen... ie. Olav son of Haakon.

Must correct the British Royal Family name--it is Mountbatten-Windsor. HM the Queen in 1960 issued a proclamation declaring that all descendents that aren't royals shall carry that name--but now it seems to have gone a step further--when Princess Anne married the first time, she was registered as Anne Mountbatten-Windsor.

I am now more confused than before. Would a synonym for "House" be Dynasty? And would family name be dependent on marriages as well? For example, say a Queen from House & Family name "X" marries someone with Family Name "Y"..... their kids (and the next ruler) would be from House "X" with Family Name "Y"?

The royal family her in Denmark just have 1 family name and that is Glúcksburg and not the other names. The reason that the RF don´t have the other names is that when Denmark lost the rigths over Schleswig-Holstein-Sonderburg the RF also lorst the rigth to juse the names.

I believe that the Greek royal family uses de Grecia (Spanish for of Greece) on their passports. It is also tagged onto Alexia's children's names after Morales, which is the Spanish custom.
