[edit] Prince and Princess of Venice's daughters

Since the abolition of the monarchy in Italy, I'm wondering about the opportunity of naming the couple's daughters as princesses. What do you think about this?? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 79.19.79.129 (talk) 01:12, 21 January 2008 (UTC)

While they may not legally be titled as princesses, there is no law banning the style of princess. The Prince of Venice's daughters are styled as princesses of Savoy. Think of it more as a name than as a title. As long as monarchies have been abolished formerly reigning families have been accorded some of the titles they would have held if reigning. Also, next time you post on a talk page, please sign your posts with four tildes (~~~~). Charles 01:15, 21 January 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for answering. Regarding the "style", I don't understand what you mean. Furthermore, I can't "think of it as a name", since there is a history that speaks out very clearly to us. Can you hear it? Regards. 79.19.75.250 (talk) 00:03, 22 January 2008 (UTC)

A style is a manner of address, they don't have to exist as legal titles. Furthermore, titles in Italy are not illegal and even if they were, they are known by their titles outside of Italy as well. Charles 01:50, 22 January 2008 (UTC)

titles aren't illegal (maybe), but anti-historical. 79.32.72.240 (talk) 19:09, 22 January 2008 (UTC)

I would argue that abolishing a monarchy, an established form of government, is "anti-historical", but our personal opinions are completely irrelevant. Charles 19:15, 22 January 2008 (UTC)

If you check this voice (regarding Clotilde) in the Italian or in the French Wikipedia, you can see that she isn't named as a princess. So only the English one is anti-historical. I will propose to modify this page. 79.32.72.240 (talk) 19:20, 22 January 2008 (UTC)

We aren't French or Italian Wikipedia, sorry. Charles 20:36, 23 January 2008 (UTC)
