===Debate on Philip's titles=== |
|||
On the popular, but erroneous, assumption that if Philip had the style of ''His Royal Highness'' he was automatically a British prince, media reports after his marriage to Princess Elizabeth referred to a ''Prince Philip'', with or without reference to his ducal title. This may have been influenced by the fact that he had actually been a [[Prince of Greece and Denmark]] by birth, the use of which titles he had renounced by that time. Although the princely title was omitted in the British [[Regency Acts#Regency Act 1953|Regency Act 1953]], and in Letters Patent of November 1953 appointing [[Counsellor of State|Counsellors of State]], it had been included in Letters Patent of 22 October 1948 conferring princely rank on children from Philip's marriage to Elizabeth. [[George VI of the United Kingdom|King George VI]], however, appeared to have been clear and intentional in having withheld the title of ''prince'' from his future son-in-law.{{#tag:ref|"[[Home Office]], [[Whitehall]]. S.W.1. 28 February 1955. "My dear George {Coldstream, [[Clerk of the Crown in Chancery]]}, We were speaking the other day about the designation of the Duke of Edinburgh.

On 3 February 1953, Member of Parliament [[John Diefenbaker]] expressed to the [[Canadian House of Commons]] his desire to see Philip bear a title that alluded to the Queen's pan-national position, and put forward the suggestion of ''Prince of the Commonwealth''.<ref name=Bousfield>{{cite book| last=Bousfield| first=Arthur| coauthors=Toffoli, Gary| title=Fifty Years the Queen| publisher=Dundurn Press| date=2002| location=Toronto| page=12| url=http://books.google.com/?id=w8l5reK7NjoC&printsec=frontcover&q=| isbn=1-55002-360-8}}</ref> In May of the following year, [[Prime Minister of the United Kingdom]] Sir [[Winston Churchill]] received a written suggestion from the Queen that her husband be granted the title that Diefenbaker had mentioned, or some other suitable augmentation of his style. Churchill preferred the title ''Prince Consort'', but the [[Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs|Foreign Secretary]] Sir [[Anthony Eden]] expressed a preference for ''Prince of the Realm''. While the Commonwealth prime ministers were assembled in [[London]], Churchill was requested by the Queen to informally solicit their opinions on the matter of the Queen's husband's title. [[Canada|Canadian]] [[Prime Minister of Canada|Prime Minister]] [[Louis St. Laurent]] was the only one to express "misgivings," while Philip insisted to the Queen that he objected to any enhancement of his title. The Queen thereafter contacted Churchill and told him to drop the matter.<ref name=veldephilip /> In 1955, the [[South Africa]]n [[Prime Minister of South Africa|Prime Minister]] belatedly made it known that their government objected to the title ''Prince of the Commonwealth''. When told, the Queen continued to express the wish that her husband's position be raised, but rejected the British Cabinet's recommendations of ''Prince Consort'' or ''Prince Royal''. The British Cabinet then suggested simply ''His Royal Highness the Prince'', but the Queen was advised that if she still preferred ''Prince of the Commonwealth'', her personal secretary could write directly to the Commonwealth [[Governor-General|Governors-General]] for their response, though warning that if their consent was not unanimous the proposal could not go forward. |

Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh has received numerous titles, decorations, and honorary appointments both during and before his time as consort to Queen Elizabeth II. Each is listed below. Where two dates are shown, the first indicates the date of receiving the award or title and the second indicates the date of its loss, renunciation or when its use was discontinued.
The matter appeared left until the publication on 8 February 1957 of an article by P. Wykeham-Bourne in the Evening Standard, titled: "Well, is it correct to say Prince Philip?" A few days following, British Prime Minister Harold Macmillan reversed the advice of the Queen's previous ministers, and formally recommended that the Queen reject The Prince in favour of Prince of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland and Her other Realms and Territories. Later he changed this advice although the Queen had already consented. Letters patent were issued on 22 February 1957 giving the Duke the style and titular dignity of a Prince of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland (omitting the wording and Her other Realms and Territories). According to the announcement in the London Gazette, he should henceforth be known as His Royal Highness The Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh,[1] with the capitalised definite article normally restricted to the children of monarchs.[2] There was some media speculation in early 2007 that the title of Prince Consort might be conferred to mark the royal couple's 60th wedding anniversary in November that year; however, this did not occur. Currently Philip is the first husband of the sovereign to bear a British peerage title since Prince George of Denmark, who was created Duke of Cumberland on his marriage to the future Queen Anne in 1683.
At the marriage of Philip's youngest son, Prince Edward, Earl of Wessex, in 1999, it was announced that Edward would be created Duke of Edinburgh when the current creation of that dukedom merges into the Crown.[3][4] However, the enactment of this stated intention would ultimately depend upon the assent of the reigning monarch at that time.
