[Opinions] Re: Line of succession to the English throne
What does the BDW and other letters after the names mean?All the ones near the top of the list are pretty boring, royal-type names. Some of the later ones and younger ones have cool names, like Isla, Cassius, Eloise, Flora, Cosima.

My guess for BDW is Born, Died, and Wed, but I'm not sure. eta: Actually, now that I look at it more closely, born, died, and wed may not make sense.
