Mnemotechnická pomôcka 
Užitočná anglická básnička na memorovanie mien anglických kráľov od normanského záboru v chronologickom poradí:

Willy Willy Harry Steve,
Henry Dick John Henry three;
Then three Edwards Richard two,
Henry Four, Five Six then who?
Edward four five, Dick the bad,
Two more Henries, Ned the lad;
Bloody Mary she came next,
Then we have our Good Queen Bess.
From Scotland we got James the Vain;
Charlie one, two, James again.
William and Mary, Anna Gloria,
Four Georges, William, and Victoria.
Edward, George, the same again,
Now Elisabeth - and the end.

Populárna obmena znie takto:

Willy, Willy, Harry, Steve, 
Harry, Dick, John, Harry Three;
One, two, three Neds, Richard Two, 
Harries Four Five Six, then who? 
Edwards Four Five, Dick the Bad, 
Harries (twain) Ned Six (the lad); 
Mary, Bessie, James ye ken, 
Then Charlie, Charlie, James again 
Will and Mary, Anna Gloria 
Georges four, Will Fourth, Victoria 
Edward Seven next, and then 
Came George the Fifth in nineteen ten 
Ned the Eighth soon abdicated 
Then George the Sixth was coronated 
After which Elizabeth 
And that's all folks until her death
