[edit] Duchess of Galliera

According to the Infanta herself, on page 216 of this book, she was the Duchess of Galliera. Charles 16:00, 20 August 2007 (UTC)

Sorry. What I meant in my edit summary is that this lady was not Duchess of Galliera in her own right, but only by marriage. She is usually called Infanta Eulalia of Spain. Noel S McFerran 16:34, 20 August 2007 (UTC)

Oh okay. that makes sense. The conventions are awfully unclear on that point as it is... I can think of some deceased duchess-consorts, Aosta off the top of my head, who use the ducal title. Charles 23:57, 20 August 2007 (UTC)

I'm not opposed in principle to having an article title based on a lady's married name as long as that is how she is most commonly called. In this case Eulalia is much more often called "Infanta Eulalia of Spain" than "Eulalia, Duchess of Galliera". Her husband is also more often known by his infante title rather than his ducal title.
