Please slow down on adding such categories to pages. Yes, Russian royals were of the family of the Grand Duke of Findland, but they were also Norwegian heirs, German nobles, etc. Charles 20:39, 9 July 2006 (UTC)
Wrong. Denmark and Greece had their own Royal Houses, so George I of course was in both. There was no Finnish Royal House so we cannot attach links implying a mythical Finnish Royal House when one did not exist. Finnish titles were used by members of the Russian Imperial House. Wikipedia does not attach categories to people who were not a member of a country's Royal House but who simply had use of a title. Any such categorisation are automatically deleted and categories created put up for deletion. Please follow Wikipedia rules like everyone else.

I am not at all certain that Loudoun is not descended from Mary Tudor and the Duke of Suffolk. What I am certain of is that he is not their genealogical representative. He is the genealogical representative of George, Duke of Clarence, and the argument that he is the "rightful king" is based on the idea that Edward IV was illegitimate (ignoring, of course, the fact that Henry VII's claim to the throne was based on conquest and his Lancastrian descent more than it was based on his marriage to Elizabeth of York), not the idea that James I couldn't ascend the throne because he was a Scot. john k 11:13, 20 July 2006 (UTC)
imho. it is a good practise to have both names as a. they are their original ruler names (and the finnish ones are often just mitned in modern day history writing), and Swedish is a Finnish language just as much as Finnish is (especially in those days). I don't feel the list becomes too cluttered. Gillis 22:06, 15 August 2006 (UTC)
