Talk:Prince Carlo, Duke of Castro

Title change

As of March 24, 2008, there has been no announcement about whether Carlo will change his title from Duke of Calabria to Duke of Castro. While it is true that his father Ferdinando and grandfather Ranieri used the Castro title as claimants, the title used previously by Ferdinando Pio was Duke of Calabria, and previously to that by Alfonso was Count of Caserta. We will have to wait and see. Noel S McFerran (talk) 01:21, 25 March 2008 (UTC)

According to the official Constantinian Order webstie at www.constantinian.org.uk Prince Carlo is now the Duke of Castro, Head of the Royal House and Grand Master. Therefore it should be changed back to how User:Mary1967 proposed. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.149.151.110 (talk) 14:19, 26 March 2008 (UTC)

Prince Antoine of Bourbon Two Sicilies?

What is Prince Antoine's relationship to Carlo? His nephew? - Gennarous (talk) 04:23, 28 March 2008 (UTC)

It would appear that Antonio and Ferdinand Pius were first cousins and therefore Charles and Antonio would be first cousins once removed. Charles 04:36, 28 March 2008 (UTC)

Prince Carlo's successor?

Who will inherit Prince Carlo's claims to the headship of the House of Bourbon-Two Sicilies? Are females in the line of succession? If they are not, Prince Carlo's closest male heir would be Infante Carlos, since Prince Carlo has neither sons, nor brothers, nor uncles. Surtsicna (talk) 19:16, 8 October 2008 (UTC)

• Hey Surtsicna! Females are not in the line of succession. According to the Kingdom of the Two Sicilies article, the next in the line of succession after Prince Carlos would not be Infante Carlos, but would be Prince Antoine. Prince Carlo is in the line of succession to Infante Carlos' title but not the other way around. --Caponer (talk) 23:24, 8 October 2008 (UTC)

Some questionable "honors"

Under the heading "Titles, styles, honours and awards", there are a number of highly questionable -- if not outright specious -- "honors" and "awards". For example, under "National Honours: United States", it lists him as being an "Admiral in the Texas Navy". In fact, the "Texas Navy" ceased to exist in 1846, when Texas became a state. According to the Texas State Archives Office of the Governor: "Citizens receive their honorary title for a number of reasons such as special achievement in government service or athletics. The criteria and the selection is at the discretion of the governor."[1] So I don't think that a sort of "novelty rank" awarded by a Governor to someone for, among other things, "athletics" really fits the category of "National Honors". So too, under "Foreign awards: United Kingdom", it claims that Carlo is a "Companion of the Order of Mercy". Again, this makes it sound like Great Britain (the Monarch, the Government, et al) awarded him some sort of national award. In fact, the "Order of Mercy" is a private nonprofit, without a royal protector, or any governmental connection. It claims to be the "re-formed" League of Mercy, which was established in 1898 by Edward, Prince of Wales, under the patronage of Queen Victoria, to raise money for hospitals. However, just before the establishment of the National Health Service in 1948, the League of Mercy was abolished.[2] Fifty-two years later, a nonprofit was founded that called itself "the Order of the League of Mercy", but again -- it is entirely a private charity, and not issued by a state or monarch, so calling it a "foreign award: United Kingdom" is more than a little misleading. Frankly, much of the other claimed "honors and awards" are listcruft, such as listing the "keys to the city" that he's been given, or being made an "honorary citizen" of a town, don't meet WP:N. I would like to see the list pruned of its cruft. Bricology (talk) 10:27, 10 March 2017 (UTC)
