Would A Daughter Of A Princess Still Be Considered .

What are daughters/sons of emperors and empresses called?

There isn't one word.  As Sachin Kanchan notes, the sons of a Tsar were called Tsarevitch (literally, "son of the Tsar") and the daughters were called "Grand Duchess".  The British Royal Family calls all sons "Prince" and all daughters "Princess".  However, they also have other titles: the line of succession since Henry VIII's time runs "Prince of Wales" (first son), "Duke of York" (second son). Prince Edward is also the Duke of Wessex, Prince William is Duke of Cambridge.  William's wife is Duchess of Cambridge and their children are Prince George and Princess Charlotte, and in the direct line of succession.Prince Charles is also Duke of Cornwall (making Camilla Duchess of Cornwall).  Charles and Camilla are also entitled to style themselves as Prince and Princess of Wales, although it is thought that the British public would not react kindly to Camilla as Princess of Wales after the death of Diana, Princess of Wales.   The "Duke of Edinburgh" (Queen Elizabeth's consort) is also Prince Phillip, although he has no claim on the British throne.  The title "Royal Highness" is applied to all offspring of the Royal Family and their wives (the title is lost in the event of divorce - see Diana, Princess of Wales and Sarah, Duchess of York), as well as other princes and royal Dukes (see Edinburgh, Connaught).

What is a princess's daughter called?

Lady Di became the Princess of Wales when she married Charles, Prince of Wales. She happened to have two sons, William and Harry - both titled Princes. Had she a daughter as well she would have been a princess too. However, Charles sister Anne, the Princess Royal had two children by her untitled husband. The children were untitled also. Point being that it depends upon whom the Princess marries.

Can calling your daughter a "princess" have negative effects?

One of my friends insists on telling her daughter she is her "princess" or just calling "little princess". She even buy her lots of princess toys. I think nicknames are cute, but I'm not sure about this one. Will she feel a greater sense of entitlement or need for pampering and attention?

Would a king's sister be called a princess?

In the commonwealth realms (eg UK, Canada, Australia etc.) and most other kingdoms, the sibling of a monarch is usually called a prince or princess. However, this is not automatic. The children of a monarch are always called prince and princess, and children of the male children of the monarch are also called prince and princess (usually - Prince Edward and Princess Sophie asked permission from the queen for their children to not be called Prince or Princess).

If a new monarch comes to the throne but did not fill the above criteria, then their siblings would not automatically be known as Prince or Princess. In fact the new monarch would have to give permission for this, but it would be expected that this would be the case.

What is the child of a prince or princess called?

It depends on what the rules and customs are of each country. And even within the country it depends on each person. We can use the UK as an example. People who are born as a prince or princess are: all the children of the monarch, all the male-line grandchildren of the monarch, and all the children of the oldest son of the Prince of Wales.So, Prince Andrew is a son of the Queen. And his children are princesses.Princess Anne is the daughter of the Queen but because she is a woman, her children do not get to be a princes or princesses. Her children have not inherited any other titles so they are just plain old Peter and Zara Philips.Prince Edward is the fourth child of the Queen. Like Andrew, his children would’ve automatically been born as princes and princesses. Yet he chose for them not to have this. Instead they are Lady Louise Windsor and James Windsor, Viscount Severn. This has to do with the fact that in addition to being a prince, Edward also has the title of Earl of Wessex. All children of earls - regardless of whether their father is a prince or not - get to have courtesy titles. The eldest son gets to use one of his father’s lesser titles. So James is called Viscount Severn because that titles belongs to his father. All younger sons are titled as The Honourable (John Smith). And all daughters are ladies, hence Louise’s title.His/Her Highness (instead of His/Her Royal Highness) is a traditional style for children of princes further away from the line of succession. In the UK it used to be the case that all male-line great-grandchildren of the monarch (excluding the children of the Prince of Wales) would receive His/Her Highness. This was done away with in 1917.In Denmark, Norway, and the Netherlands His/Her Highness is still used. Prince Joachim is the second son of the Queen of Denmark, and his children use the style of His/Her Highness. Furthermore, the title of prince/princess can be passed down for quite a while in Denmark. For example, the defunct Greek royal family are still considered princes and princesses of Denmark because the first Greek king came from the Danish royal family. The current head of the Greek royal family is the great-grandson of that Danish prince, and the great-great-grandson of the Danish king.So, it really, really depends. Some children become princes and princesses. Some children get other titles. Some children have no titles at all.

What's an emperor's daughter called?

The daughter of an emperor would be a princess but daughters of emperors have also been grand duchesses (Russia) and archduchesses (Austria).

In the case of Austria, the title was actually Archduchess and Princess Imperial of Austria.

What would you call the stepdaughter or stepson of a king?

I'm doing research for a story I want to write and so far I can't find anything helpful.

Here's what I want to know:

*If a king were to marry a woman and that woman already had children from a previous marriage would those children receive a title upon being adopted as the king's stepchildren? Would they be a prince or princess or do they have no formal title at all?

*If they do have a title, how would you address them? (Royal highness, Highness, etc.)

Any help you could give would be awesome. Thanks in advance.
