Charles Patrick Inigo Armstrong-Jones (born 1 July 1999) is the son of Viscount Linley and Viscountess Linley. He is a great-grandson of King George VI of the United Kingdom.

He was born in London, and he is currently 14th in line to the British throne. He has a younger sister, The Hon. Margarita Armstrong-Jones. He is second heir to the Earldom of Snowdon after his father, Lord Linley. He is styled The Hon. Charles Armstrong-Jones. If and when his father succeeds to the Earldom, he will be known as Viscount Linley. He will probably be the 3rd Earl of Snowdon.

His first name Charles is in honour of his first cousin once removed, Charles, Prince of Wales; his second name Patrick is in honour of Saint Patrick, the patron saint of Ireland, the birthplace of his mother; his third name Inigo is in honour of the 17th century English architect and designer Inigo Jones.

He has six godparents: Lady Bruce Dundas (aka Ruth Kennedy), Nigel Harvey, Nick Powell, Orlando Rock, Lucinda Cecil and Rita Konig.
