the town from which the name Mountbatten in the British royal family derives? -- Jmabel 22:43, Jun 23, 2004 (UTC)
No mention of the pink and yellow sponge cakes with marzipan icing! I'm shocked and appalled! -- Kiand 22:42, 27 May 2005 (UTC)
that it was decreed in 1960 that the surname Mountbatten will in future generations be incorporated into the cadet branches of the British Royal Family; the descendants of Prince Philip and Queen Elizabeth would therefore have the surname Mountbatten-Windsor. Is that correct? Cosal 00:44, 3 January 2006 (UTC)
This may be obvious to everyone but me... however, I read the whole article trying in vain to find out WHERE these lovely princes & princesses were FROM!! Is there some good reason why it doesn't say anywhere that this is a German noble family? I know - it does say "of Hesse," but that only helps if you know where Hesse is, which I didn't until I followed the link. On the disambiguation page it gives that information, but it would seem logical to me to have it in the article itself! (Please forgive my parochialism - my European geography is *quite* rusty!) -- Mpwrmnt 07:57, 8 December 2006 (UTC)
Does anyone know who this individual is who is on Facebook? From what I can tell, it seems she is pretending to be a descentant of Lady Iris Mountbatten, daughter of the Marquess of Carisbrooke. Missionconsort ( talk) 20:08, 28 August 2009 (UTC)
Someone has already done research on this individual: http://royalmusingsblogspotcom.blogspot.com/search?q=Grania 69.157.25.223 ( talk) 00:15, 27 October 2009 (UTC)
The result of the proposal was No move; rename category instead (I'll submit it to a bot). Duja ►
that both the category and the template use the form House of Battenberg, wouldn't it be appropriate for the article to use the same? -- Jao 19:05, 31 August 2007 (UTC)
For reasons known only to the writers,the Names have all been anglicized as: of Hartenau versus von Hartenau. I suggest that they be corrected. No doubt,the same drift of mind would have de become of in the Romance names. This is unacceptable,in my opinion. AptitudeDesign ( talk) 20:38, 29 September 2013 (UTC)
