Question is though a/ why won't we ever have a King Albert? and b/ why do the Russians celebrate the October revolution in November? :wink:
George VI (Albert Frederick Arthur George Windsor) was born on the anniversary of the death of Prince Albert, the Prince Consort. Uncertain of how his widow Queen Victoria would take this news, Edward VII, then Prince of Wales, wrote to his son, Prince George, Duke of York, that the Queen had been a little distressed and he said: 'I really think it would gratify her if you yourself proposed the name Albert to her'. This mollified the baby's great-grandmother, who wrote to the baby's mother, the Duchess of York: 'I am all impatience to see the new one, born on such a sad day but rather more dear to me, especially as he will be called by that dear name which is a byword for all that is great and good.' However, his maternal grandmother Princess Mary Adelaide of Cambridge did not like the first name the baby had been given, and she prophetically wrote that she hoped the last name "may supplant the less favoured one".
On October 25, 1917,according to the Julian calendar then in use in Russia, the date was November 7.
