William of Normandy, also known as William the Conqueror, famously asserted his claim to the English throne after The Battle of Hastings in 1066. He is known to have exclaimed, "I have won the day!" upon his victory. His statements often reflected his ambition to establish and consolidate his rule over England. Additionally, he emphasized the importance of loyalty and fealty from his subjects in his dealings with them.
Most people say that William, duke of Normandy was cruel but he did have at least one friend which was Edward, the Confessor who supposedly had said that William should be the next king. Edward, the Confessor was also a distant cousin of William's and was his best friend.

Duke William the Second of Normandy defeated King Harold the Second of Wessex at the Battle of Hastings. The battle occurred in October 1066 and Harold was killed.
William did not have a surname. People had descriptions after their personal names, but these were not surnames as they changed froim time to time and were not inherited from father to son. Before he became King of England, William was Duke of Normandy, and the "of Normandy" was the nearest to what we would call a surname.
He was crowned on Christmas day of 1066 but you could say he became king when he won tha battle
they said why should he get the throne?
