: Only 13 titles left assuming they will not
: doubt some up like for Madeleine.
: I think Victoria and Daniel will not have
: another child (considering her age and the
: age gap between Estelle and Oscar).
: Carl-Philip and Sofia are likely to have
: more children than their current two boys so
: one or two titles might still be needed
: there.
: Madeleine might complete her family with
: another child.
: That means there will be between 10 and 13
: titles remaining for the next generation.
: that would never be enough if all the
: greatgrandchildren of Carl XVI Gustaf get a
: ducal title.
Well, then they could start using names of Län (Counties)

: I get the impression the King is keeping the
: traditional Dukedoms for those closer in
: line of succession.
: Im wondering what will happen in the next
: generation. Will Queen Victoria also have
: all the grandchildren of her siblings as HRH
: prince(ss) of Sweden with a Ducal title?
: They do need to find a solution for that.
: Otherwise they'll end up with more Royals
: than provinces.

: Interesting info from Marlene (and Ted
: Rosvall) as always, but I take it from
: Robert's comment that, like Estelle,
: Adrienne is not a Swedish-sounding name to
: Scandinavians. Can anyone confirm that?
:
: Out of curiosity, has Estelle become a more
: popular name in Sweden since the birth of
: the princess of that name? I recall at the
: time of her birth the name announcement was
: greeted with great surprise.
:
: Who are the previous holders of the dukedom,
: if any?
:
: Thanks!

:
: There are only 305 girls/women in Sweden
: with the name Adrienne and only 141 are
: called Adrienne. I didn't even know that the
: name existed.
:
: 1934 girls/women have Estelle amongst their
: names. 940 has it as their calling name. The
: name did not make it to Top100 in 2017.
:
: There has never been a Duke/Duchess of
: Blekinge before. I'm glad that the King
: doesn't only go for the most common
: Dukedoms. Ångermanland for Prince Nicolas
: was also a new one. If we check the list for
: titular Dukedoms from 1772 there are several
: who haven't been used: Öland, Bohuslän,
: Dalsland, Härjedalen, Medelpad, Norrbotten
: and Lappland. Other Dukedoms available are:
: Halland, Småland, Närke, Västmanland,
: Uppland, Jämtland and Västerbotten.
