I always thought he'd ruled out taking the title of Charles III. Edward IX?
Contrary to popular belief, the Sovereign does not choose "any" name for his/her regnal name. Rather he/she will choose from amongst his/her baptismal names. Therefore the Prince of Wales will ultimately select from between Charles, Philip, Arthur and George. It is because Philip and Arthur are rather unlikely, that most speculation focuses on either "George" or "Charles".
Kind regards, RHM
I think many people would be quite happy with the name Charles and unworried about the two Kings of that name in the 17th Century. The first made a forebear a Chaplain and the second made him a bishop and the second went on to make the Bishop's son in law an Archbishop. I will be hoping for a Deanery at least.
