Talk:Louis-Napoléon, Prince Imperial

message: Since Napoleon Eugene was commisioned as a Lieutenant with the British Army, I have listed him in the category: British Army officers. Cheers V. Joe 22:31, 3 November 2006 (UTC)
replies: text:  According to Saul Davids "Zulu. The Heroism and Tragedy of the Zulu War of 1879" (2006?)he can not have been an officer of the British army, as he was not allowed to take a commision (Davids, p. 311) --Shieldfire (talk) 13:46, 20 November 2010 (UTC)
thread_title: British Officer?

message: I've absolutely never seen him called "Louis Napoleon".  Where did that come from? The article should be at Napoléon, Prince Imperial. john k (talk) 21:32, 7 September 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: He was known sometimes at least as "Louis Napoleon", there is a lot of news sources, I don't know if this is what he was commonly called. - dwc lr (talk) 23:24, 29 November 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: It's fair to say that he was the Prince Imperial until the collapse of the Second Empire, and was then generally known outside France as the claimant Louis Napoleon, whom a few supporters chose to call Napoleon IV. Then again there is William, German Crown Prince who would be William Hohenzollern if Louis Napoleon is Louis Napoleon.86.42.203.174 (talk) 10:05, 12 September 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: He was always called the Prince Imperial - before and after the collapse of the Second Empire.  And his name wasn't even Louis Napoleon.  It was Napoléon Louis Eugène Jean Joseph. dwc lr's google news search doesn't provide any results, either.  john k (talk) 22:37, 12 September 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: There are certianly sources where he is called "Louis Napoleon".(Google book search for "Louis Napoleon" Prince Imperial gives results. A Google News Archive search also yields results) and Louis is among his given names. - dwc lr (talk) 19:47, 13 September 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: There does seem to be some usage, although some of those hits are actually referring to his father.  I still don't think it's all that common, and I'm not at all certain that it's not a mistake - there's a fair number of source, for instance, who refer to Napoleon III's cousin Prince Napoleon as "Prince Jerome Napoleon," even though Jerome wasn't even one of his given names, and even though pretty much all the contemporary sources just call him "Prince Napoleon." john k (talk) 16:46, 14 September 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: He was known as "Louis" to family members. His mother's letters always refer to him as "Louis". The combination of "Louis" and "Napoleon" probably simply derives from the fact that his official first name is being combined with the name he actually used. Paul B (talk) 16:52, 17 March 2014 (UTC)
