Just googled.

Because it is her real name and she is getting married so she is going to go with Catherine.

She isn't going to get married with the name Katie as it isn't her real name.

I know it's her full name. I'm not stupid. I'm saying that all of a sudden people are referring to her as that when she's always been 'Kate'. She gets engaged and it's all of a sudden "Catherine Elizabeth" just cos she's marrying William.

Because that is her marital name so that's why I would imagine.

It's the only reason I can think of as to why she would change her name or why it would be mentioned.

You dont half write some rubbish Thomas.

Its called etiquette, with the formal announcement of the royal engagement, her and billy have formed a contract, one of the by-products of this contract is the elevation from middle class shag for a future king to accepted member of the Royal Family and unless something happens with Charles and Camilla the next Queen.

Now the media are sucking up to her is all.

She hasn't. The press have started referring to her by her full name, thats what I'm saying. Now she's engaged to Prince William she's all of a sudden Catherine Elizabeth..... She was and IS Kate!

*sigh*

Apparently 'etiquette' as the Queen refuses to allow marriage unless they have been together at least 5 years these days

God forbid a life...

Yeah but there is a slight difference between being together as in having a relationship for a few years and living together. His royal williness sort of decided to have her live in first. Sort of took his nana's comment literally.

Typical women never bloody happy.

Only took 4 edits to get those five words sorted.

Miss Ivy Balls · 17-11-2010, 02:38 AM

My point still stands.

Her birth name as she is now engaged. She would be married with that name, not a false one unless she has changed it my depol.

Rude? I would say it was more rude not to use the given name, after all its there in front of you.

But her friends and family etc will still call her Kate. The point Kerry was making which you seem to have missed is that its the press who have gone all formal since the announcement of the royal engagement.

Her full name was the same before the engagement. It hasnt changed, only the way they have started referring to her.

And she doesnt have a marital name because she isnt yet married.

Incidentally its deed poll

As I said it's the PRESS referring to her as that name now and you missed my point entirely!
