Prince Harry, Meghan Markle Reveal Real Names Amid Surname Debate

News summary

Mindy Kaling recently encountered Meghan Markle on set, where Markle expressed her preference for the surname 'Sussex' over 'Markle', emphasizing its significance as a family name. This has stirred debates among royal fans, who argue that her last name should be 'Mountbatten-Windsor' due to her limited ties to Sussex. Both Prince Harry and Meghan retain the Sussex surname despite stepping back from royal duties in 2020, as it connects them to their children. Meanwhile, their children also use the surname Sussex, while Prince William and Princess Kate's children use 'Wales', reflecting their father's title. The complexities of royal surnames stem from historical practices and specific royal titles, with some members of the royal family opting not to use surnames at all. Additionally, royal family members traditionally identify by their house names rather than surnames, a practice that has evolved over the years.
