Notes and individual references

  1. Whether the name Fürst zu Hohenlohe-Waldenburg-Schillingsfürst became the official name with the part of the name, which is reminiscent of the first-born title Fürst , which can no longer be inherited , or whether the officially valid family name Prinz zu Hohenlohe-Waldenburg-Schillingsfürst remains the officially correct form of his name, Wikipedia is currently not known.
  2. The real name of all lines of the House of Hohenlohe in Germany begins in 1919 with Prince zu Hohenlohe-… or Princess zu Hohenlohe-… . The respective heads of the lines traditionally call themselves Fürst zu Hohenlohe-… in public to this day . This traditional designation with the so-called first -born title can usually be interpreted as a pseudonym. As a form of courtesy, it is common in non-official contexts, both in literature and in society, to use the name with the title of first-born. The practice, which goes back to the no longer existing and inheritable primogeniture nobility , should actually be officially irrelevant according to a judgment of the Federal Administrative Court of March 11, 1966. In some cases, in particular of the Hohenlohe family, the part of the name Fürst was included in the register of residents due to the goodwill of the local authority (see also Wilfried Rogasch : Schnellkurs Adel , DuMont, Cologne 2004, ISBN 978-3-8321-7617-4 , P. 17.)
