Immediately upon Charles' accession, Prince William will become the Duke of Cornwall. Precedent indicates that he'll be known as HRH the Duke of Cornwall and Cambridge.
and were does wales come in to it all?

Sister Morphine said:I just love that Catherine is going to be the Duchess of Cambridge. That just sounds so elegant, and so befitting a future Queen.
Will she wear the Lovers Knot now?
So Miss Catherine Elizabeth Middleton will, in less than 4 hours, become
Her Royal Highness The Princess William Arthur Philip Louis of Wales, Duchess of Cambridge, Countess of Strathearn and Baroness Carrickfergus.
She'll by styled "HRH The Duchess of Cambridge"
From Bucklebury to Buckingham Palace!!!
Pretty cool.
Small correction, she will be "HRH Princess William, etc".
"The Prince(ss)" is only used for the children of the monarch, and the wives of the sons of the monarch.
right you are of course!
thanks for catching my extra "The"
I'm not sure they'll be "of Wales" anymore. The territorial designations are an informal addition to titles that originally came about to differentiate similarly-named children within the large royal family of the 19th century; I'm not sure they get used once someone has a unique title.
I believe they will not. I had already edited my original post to take "of Wales" out and also to remove the "The" before Princess.
I'm not sure if it will be "...Countess of Strathearn and Baroness Carrickfergus" or "...Strathearn, Baroness Carrickfergus".
We may have to wait to see the wording in the Letters Patent.
