Quote: "So do you feel that the Windsors should only be referred to by their original Germanic name ?. After all that would be consistent would it not ?"
racedo, would imagine that LGS6753's point is the difference between a change of name and a simple translation.
The House of Windsor, formerly Saxe-Coburg, is clearly change of name, just like Salisbury/Harare or Leningrad/St Petersburg.
On the other hand, Bombay/Mumbai or Peking/Beijing is merely a translation.
Please correct me if this is wrong, LGS6753.
