Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis have held royal titles from birth. But those titles stay outside the classroom.The three children use a simpler naming convention at school, continuing a family tradition their father and uncle followed decades earlier.Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis may be among Britain’s most recognizable royal children, but their titles do not follow them into the classroom.The children of Prince William and Catherine, Princess of Wales, returned to school in September for a significant academic year. George, 13, began at Eton College, while Charlotte, 11, entered Year 7 and Louis, eight, started Year 4 at Lambrook Prep School in Berkshire, according to Hello! magazine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Harry enrolled at Eton three years after his brother.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
