What is the naming/titling protocol of former monarchs who were never crowned?
As I understand it monarchs who were crowned and subsequently lost their throne, i.e. Constantine II of Greece remain being Constantine II of Greece.
Kings who were never crowned, i.e. Edward VIII do not retain that title. So protocol would dictate that Edward VIII be known as the Duke of Windsor.
Am I correct in this or have I the wrong end of the stick? Any help would be welcome.
Thanks
