Which of the current crown princess have the most godchildren (particularly royal godchildren)?
I know Mette-Marit is Prince Christian's godmother but is she anyone else's? I don't think Mary or Letizia have any royal godchildren ? Thanks for the info |

I checked on the forum:
Catharina-Amalia - Princess Victoria Alexia - Princess Mathilde Ariane - ? Christian - Princess Victoria Isabella - Princess Mathilde Ingrid - Princess Victoria Sverre - Princess Maxima I think Princess Victoria has the most godchildren so far! (amongst the crown princely couples) Of course this is just the ones I can think of and Leonor and Sofia don't have any of the crown princesses as godparents, or the Belgian royal children (I think) (I suppose it would be easier to list the godparents and their godchildren) |
Who were Kaiser Wilhelm IIs Godparents and Godchildren

Dont know if this link has been posted previously in this thread. It is a wonderful reference for those interested in Royal Godparents past and present (mostly present though). Its a shame that this thread was closed but it must be cumbersome to maintain. Enjoy.
