[edit] Princess names
"Princess Anton Esterhazy" and "Princess Nicholas Esterhazy". Is this the correct way to address them? Its causing some confusion. DavidRF (talk) 20:25, 7 February 2008 (UTC)
- Yes, we should find out what the princesses' own names were and use them. I believe these odd namings ("Princess Male X") were my own doing, and I got them from a source that I neglected to cite at the time (perhaps Charles Rosen's The Classical Style).
- Presumably, this sort of name usage is similar to what is still occasionally heard in English; "Mrs. John Smith." Opus33 (talk) 21:22, 7 February 2008 (UTC)

- Looking at the genealogy link at the bottom of the House of Esterházy article, it looks like Anton's wife was "Mária Terezia Erdödy de Monyorokerek et Monoszlo" (yet another Maria Theresa), while the younger Nicholas's wife was "Maria Josepha von und zu Liechtenstein". What's the appropriate way to address those?
- Princess Maria Theresa, wife of Prince Anton Esterhazy
- Princess Maria Josepha, wife of Prince Nicholas Esterhazy
- Something like that? I feel like there might be rules I'm suppose to follow, but don't know about. DavidRF (talk) 03:10, 8 February 2008 (UTC)
