Princess Charlotte, known formally as Her Royal Highness Princess Charlotte of Cambridge, has opted for a more down-to-earth approach during her school days.
Despite her prestigious lineage as the daughter of the future King and Queen of England, Charlotte chooses to blend in by using her parents’ surname at school.
This decision allows her to experience a sense of normalcy among her peers, steering clear of the spotlight that comes with her royal status.
When Princess Charlotte and her older brother, Prince George, attended Thomas’s school in Battersea, they intentionally avoided being addressed by their royal titles.
Instead, they adopted the surname “Cambridge,” in reference to their parents’ title as the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge.
At school, they were simply known as George and Charlotte Cambridge, shedding the weight of their royal heritage for a more relatable school experience.
Recently, Prince George’s younger brother, Prince Louis, has joined him at Lambrock School in Windsor.
Given their parents’ new titles as the Prince and Princess of Wales, the siblings are likely to be recognized as the Children of Wales within their school community.
This transition marks another step towards normalcy for the young royals, emphasizing their desire to lead lives beyond the confines of their royal identities.
Princess Charlotte’s full name, Charlotte Elizabeth Diana, pays homage to three significant members of the royal family.
