No idea. Isn't the most common name in the world, isn't it? But, IMO, it's fit for a Princess.

I don't know...I haven't heard her name spoken by anyone English.
I lean to "Creysida" but I'm just guessing!

LOL do it sound like a good name for a Princess because its so uncommon and irritatingly difficult to say?
Still I agree with you. It sounds better than Chelsy, no offense to her.

Well, we'll learn how to pronounce her name. If the swedes can cope with Estelle, and the danes with Athena, britons will be able the say Cressida with the correct pronunciation.
And "Cressida, Duchess of Sussex" sounds infinitely more royal than "Chelsy, Duchess of Sussex".

Don't even know where to begin answering this. Everyone chooses their own education path that's right for them, simple.

Estelle and Athena are quite easy to pronounce and understand. The titles you use are incorrect, those the divorced styles of peers. Just like Sarah, Duchess of York.

I used that way of styling to make reference to their names. I can't say "Princess Catherine", so, normally, I would say "The Duchess of Cambridge", or "Catherine, Duchess of Cambridge".

That would be the correct style for the married wife of the Duke. Sussex seems the only viable title for Henry, but there's a whole other thread for that.

Not a "thing". But, in 2011, there were rumours about to Dukedom of Sussex to be given to Harry, at his wedding.
I would prefer to see him as Duke of Clarence, but I'm not The Queen.
Prince Harry promised the title Duke of Sussex - UK & World News - News - People.co.uk

She seems to be a good girl, and it's sad to see Harry alone at official events. A Duke and a Duchess is better than just a lonely Prince.
And Charles deserves a bunch of grandkids.
