Well this answers some questions. The babys cute tho, huh. :) By 1915, with the first world war almost a year old, the horrific sinking of the cruise-ship Lusitania by a German submarine - with the loss of almost 1,200 lives - a fresh wave of anti-German outrage emerged in Britain and in the USA. The consequences for Germans in Britain were grave - and so, being German, the queens grand-parents and great-grandparents created a fake name which they use to this day; WINDSOR.
