Talk:Prince Ioann Konstantinovich of Russia
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Quite a lot of discrepancies with the titles of Elena and their two children. Before marriage, Elena was HRH; after marriage, she was HH. Alexander III decreed that only the children and the grandchildren of the Tsar in the male-line could hold the title HRH Grand Duke/Duchess. The others would be HH Prince/ss.

- Actually, Elena did not lose her HRH, because it was not in purview of Russian law to regulate anything in Serbian titles. She was simultaneously HRH and HH, in which situation HRHtakes precedence, also on use. And, there were no Russian style of HRH Grand Duke/Duchess; such all were HIH (imperial highnesses), of course not royal. Shilkanni 02:33, 20 November 2006 (UTC)
