What's in a name?
I've nicknamed the snail of mine who has an egg sack on his shell "Spooge," but we decided he should have a proper name for when the egg sack has long since gone away. I settled on Winston for a first name, but needed to come up with a really great last name for him because I wanted him to have roman numerals on the end. At work we were discussing some naming options and were trying to think of what the British royal family's name is and realized they don't have one. The closest thing they have to a last name is "of Whales." So, after much balking at the british royal family I settled on a name for Spooge:

Hi My name is Jacob. I think you should name him differently. To smithy-worman yangerman-Jensen the 59th.
I didn't finish. Ok, This is from Jacob still. Well continuing on from where I left off. Because your name kind of sucks. I mean seriously, that's kind of hard for the kids to remember. Smithy-worman Yangerman-Jensen the 59th is easier to remember. For crying out loud what kid wants a father who has the word Whales in his name? I mean seriously. It would be cool to have a parent's name be Smithy-worman yangerman-jensen the 59th.
Well, this has been from Jacob. I hope you send up another thing on this snog, then I'll complain about it and keep sending comments until you use my advice. Well this has been Jacob.....GOODBYE!!!
Agreed. Wouldn't the parent's name be Smithy-woman yangerman-jensen the 58th though?
The British Royal Family do have a surname. It's Windsor.
It's been Windsor since 1952. Before that it was Mountbatten, and some of the Queens descendants are also known as Mountbatten-Windsor
"of Whales" is a title, not a surname, and it doesn't apply to the whole Royal family.
