Introduction:
Prince William is a well-known member of the British royal family and is second in line to the throne after his father, Prince Charles. While many are familiar with his titles and royal lineage, there is often confusion surrounding his last name. In this presentation, we will explore the question: What is Prince William’s last name?
Presentation:
Prince William’s full name is William Arthur Philip Louis. His official title is His Royal Highness Prince William, Duke of Cambridge. However, unlike most commoners who have a family surname that is passed down through generations, members of the British royal family do not typically use a last name in the same way.
That being said, when Prince William and his brother, Prince Harry, attended school and served in the military, they used the surname «Wales.» This is because their father, Prince Charles, is the Prince of Wales. Therefore, Prince William’s full name could be written as William Wales.
Additionally, when Prince William married Catherine Middleton in 2011, they were given the titles of Duke and Duchess of Cambridge. Therefore, some may refer to Prince William using the surname «Cambridge.»
In summary, while Prince William’s official last name may not be as straightforward as that of a commoner, he has used the surnames «Wales» and «Cambridge» in certain contexts throughout his life. Ultimately, his full name and title reflect his royal heritage and position within the British monarchy.

What is the Royal Family’s Last Name? Unveiling the Mystery Behind the British Monarchy’s Surname
One of the most common questions people have about the British Royal Family is, what is their last name? This question has caused much confusion over the years, as the royal family does not use a traditional surname like most families.
The Royal Family’s last name is Windsor. This name was adopted in 1917 by King George V, who decided to change the family name from the German-sounding Saxe-Coburg and Gotha to a more English-sounding name during World War I. The name Windsor was chosen in honor of the royal residence, Windsor Castle.
However, things became a bit more complicated when Queen Elizabeth II married Prince Philip in 1947. Their descendants would have the last name Mountbatten-Windsor, combining Prince Philip’s surname with the royal family’s name. This last name is used by descendents of the Queen who do not have royal titles.
So, what is Prince William’s last name? Prince William’s full name is William Arthur Philip Louis. However, he is commonly known as Prince William or the Duke of Cambridge. As a member of the royal family, he does not typically need to use a last name. If he were to use one, it would be Mountbatten-Windsor.
In conclusion, the Royal Family’s last name is Windsor, but descendants without royal titles may use the surname Mountbatten-Windsor. Prince William’s last name would technically be Mountbatten-Windsor, but as a member of the royal family, he rarely needs to use a last name.
