Good question. It is currently Mountbatten-Windsor, after his marriage to the Queen, but his name before was Mountbatten. Most royals either use Mountbatten-Windsor as their surname eg. Philip Mountbatten-Windsor Charles Mountbatten-Windsor or their place name eg. William Wales Catherine Cambridge

Mountbatten-Windsor
They use Windsor. It should really be Mountbatten as the duke of Edinburgh's last name is Mountbatten.
their last name is louuie or that's how it sounds :) The British royals surname is Windsor, or for direct descendants of Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Philip, it is Mountbatten-Windsor.
Because that is the royal family's surname
All the children of Queen Elisabeth II and Prince Phillip and their descendants have the surname Mountbatten-Windsor, daughters who change their last name on marriage excluded of course. Prince Charles and Prince William's last name is therefore Mountbatten-Windsor.

Mountbatten-WindsorPrince Charles's last name is Mountbatten-Windsor, which is the surname for all of Queen Elizabeth II's children and descendants. It was adopted after she became Queen.
Although Royals don't tend to use a last name, in the instance of a marriage, for example, Prince William's last name is Mountbatten-Windsor. This is the surname of all descendants of Prince Philip and Queen Elizabeth II (excluding females who marry). The name Mountbatten-Windsor derives from the Royal surname Windsor, decided in 1917 by George V. Before this, the Royal surname was technically Saxe-Coburg-Gotha, but due to anti-German sentiment after WWI, the decision was made to change the royal surname to Windsor. In 1960, Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Philip decided to create a surname for their direct descendants, incorporating the surnames "Windsor" and Prince Philip's previous surname, "Mountbatten." Therefore, Mountbatten-Windsor is the surname of all male (and unmarried female) descendants of Prince Philip and Queen Elizabeth II; this includes Prince Charles, Prince William and Prince Harry. Because Prince Harry and Price William use the title Prince, they do not use the last name Mountbatten-Windsor. They use the surname Wales because they are the sons of the Prince of Wales.
