Titles of pretence
editI think my edits today may have been misunderstood. I do not have any objection to, nor deliberately edit out, titles of pretence borne by claimants and their family members. There may be a disagreement, however, about the relevant custom around use of those titles: whereas it is appropriate and usual to refer to the younger brother of a pretender as, for example, "Prince John of X, Duke of Y", it is usual to style the actual claimant or Head of House as "Edward, Count of Z", omitting the princely prefix. Examples: 1. Prince Eudes, Duke of Angoulême vs. Jean, Count of Paris 2. Prince Aimone, Duke of Apulia vs. Vittorio Emanuele, Prince of Naples. FactStraight (talk) 06:45, 18 February 2019 (UTC)
