Prince Louis is the third and youngest child and second son of Prince William, Duke of Cambridge, and Catherine, Duchess of Cambridge.
Prince Louis is also the fifth in the line of succession to the British throne.
What did the Queen change Prince Louis name to?
After the birth of the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge’s third child, the Queen stepped in to change his name. Prince William and Kate Middleton’s youngest child was born on April 23, 2018, and the proud parents named him Louis Arthur Charles.
According to The Express, Prince Loius’s HRH title was far from certain thanks to a longstanding rule put in place by King George V. In 1917, King George set out guidance on which royals were allowed to have titles and decided then that only those closest to the top of the line of succession would be automatically granted titles.

King George V decided that only the sovereign’s children would automatically become a Prince or Princess, as well as any grandchildren born through the male line.
However, great-grandchildren were not included.
The Queen overturned this for Prince George, and for all of William and Kate’s children.
If the Queen didn’t make the change, it’s likely that Louis would have been Master Louis Cambridge or Master Louis Windsor instead.
What is Prince Louis name and title?
Prince Louis doesn’t have an actual surname just like his siblings Prince George and Princess Charlotte, and he is formally known as His Royal Highness Prince Louis of Cambridge.
