How will you refer to Charles now?

[O11]

Obviously in official/media contexts he will be called the King.

But at home, will you refer to him as the King like we did of course the Queen? Or will you still call him Charles? Is King Charles the easier middle ground?

I can't get my head around just saying the King.

I believe William becomes Duke of Cornwall automatically when he becomes heir. The title Prince of Wales would have to be given to him by the monarch. If that does happen maybe it will be timed with the coronation.

Charles the third does have an unflattering rhyme to it !

I saw a tweet saying it would be difficult not to tag on "spaniel" in reference to King Charles

My dad called the Queen the Baked Bean, so I'll ask him for a King rhyming slang now

I've never referred to him at all , so not much change for me

People keep suggesting he should do this like it would be some kind of favour to William, it wouldn’t be. If Charles abdicated and handed the whole performance to William now, he probably wouldn’t be grateful for it and I doubt his wife or kids would be either.

Hey Charlie Boy! (as I normally do)

I don't often discuss the monarchy but I suspect I'll say Charles. It'll take a long time for middle aged people upwards to get used to having a king, I think.

Why do some people dislike Charles (in particular as opposed to a dislike of the monarchy in general)?

I don't understand people who go on about tradition as a reason for keeping the monarchy yet think this is the x factor where we should choose which royal accedes the throne? Why would he refuse the throne? His whole life has been leading up to this moment. Do they still believe in the divine right of kings?

I think that Charles will make William Prince of Wales before the coronation. In fact, I would not be surprised if he does it a few weeks after the funeral.

Trying over & over yo say 'The King' and 'The Queen' for Charles & Camilla, so it becomes habit.

I’d call him the King

Most likely everything will be expedited. Charles is no spring chicken.

The Queen was 'Queenie' and I think Charles will almost certainly be 'Charlie'.

(I don't think I will be able to go with Willie though).

There's always Billy.

That parasite Tampon Lover as usual. He's no King of mine.

Chuckles. Always have.

It was Her Maj or Queeniepops.

What are the tampon references about?

I'm imagining that Charles will be misgendered for a while ...

Her Maj (slight pause) King Charles III or God Save Our Gracious Qu...ing.

Easiest if you just Google tampongate. Because there's no way in hell I'm typing it out

When Charles was having an affair with Camilla while still married to Diana there was a tape recording of a phone call in which he expressed jealousy towards Camilla's tanpona.

Thanks @ClumpingBambooIsALie.
I was sick in my mouth 🤣

When I ring him up for a chat, I call him Chuck

I'll just keep calling him by the nickname I have for him. I can't really say it on here, it's an in-joke between the two of us and we can't have the press getting hold of it 😉

"God save Mrs. Ethel Shroake, Long live Mrs. Ethel Shroake..." Ever seen the film "The bed sitting room"? 😅
