Whats Meghans maiden name?

And whats Meghans married name?

Where does Mountbatten-Windsor come into all of this?

This was all well and good until Princess Elizabeth married Lt Philip Mountbatten in 1947.

Churchill and the royal family, though, were keen to protect the Windsor name.

The Queen has had this in mind for a long time, and it is close to her heart.

So is Meghan Sussex correct?

Theres no issue with Meghan referring to herself as Meghan Sussex.

Various members of the royal family use titles as last names.

PerDebretts: The Duke and Duchess of Sussex can, and do, use the surname Sussex.

Harry and Meghan arent the only members of the royal family to do this, either.
