Kate Middleton has left behind her commoner roots and her name to become Her Royal Highness the Duchess of Cambridge.
Prince William was given a dukedom, the highest rank in British peerage, on his wedding day by the Queen, and will be known from now on as the Duke of Cambridge.
He also became the Earl of Strathearn and Baron Carrickfergus, and Kate the Countess of Strathearn and Baroness Carrickfergus – though the titles are expected to be used only rarely, mainly in Scotland, where they met and fell in love, and Northern Ireland respectively.
According to protocol, Kate should also be called Princess William of Wales rather than Princess Catherine or Princess Kate, because she was not born with royal blood.
