Elizabeth II (Elizabeth Alexandra Mary Windsor; born 21 April 1926).Her surname is Windsor.She did not take husband Phillip's surname, Mountbatten, when she married.The queen's grandfather George V changed the family surname to Windsor because their proper surname, Wettin, sounded too German for English public sentiment during World War I. Wettin had become the surname of the monarchs after Queen Victoria married Prince Albert. Albert's surname, which he passed on to his children, was Wettin. Because Albert was from the noble family of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha, the royal household was known as Saxe-Coburg and Gotha until 1917, when, along with the surname Wettin, George V changed the name of the British royal household to Windsor.The Queen and all members of the Royal Family holding the style and title His/Her Royal Highness do not hold or use surnames.
