Well, it would be an alt-daughter of an alt-king of Castile, since @Kurt_Steiner will be very glad to know that no Trastamaras.
Breton match is possible, just wouldn't be OTL Fransez I (see trees about Brittany above)

Since Philippa's a younger daughter, a younger son of Jean V could do I think.
@Jan Olbracht @Zygmunt Stary :
Would a match between a surviving daughter of Sigismund and Mary of Hungary and the dauphin (or their son and one of Charles VI's daughters) be considered at all?

Any suggestions for brides for these Lorrainer girls? And would they be married off as Luxemburger/imperial proxies? @Jan Olbracht @Zulfurium @Zygmunt Stary
For instance, could Marie be offered to Albrecht III of Austria (instead of her half-cousin, Eliska) with a surviving Rudolf IV? Or would Elisabeth of Slavonia still be regarded as a better match?
Another match I considered was to Hermann II of Hesse. He was raised in Prague (albeit with the intention of going into the priesthood) so he'd be a known quantity to Karl IV/Wenzel to marry into the family. But I'm not sure how the Luxemburgs and the Hesses felt about one another by this point?
A tree from this what-if. Obviously Elizabeth lives past her OTL deathdate of 1402.
David III, King of Scots [1406-1429] (1378-1429) m: 1399 Elizabeth Dunbar (b.1378)

Maybe James could marry a French Prince or Proxy? Or he could marry Joan Beaufort like his OTL counterpart.
Well, as @VVD0D95 and I were discussing in the thread (please drop by, leave your opinion), Dave marrying a Dunbar girl will be more beneficial for him/Scotland than another Douglas match.
No idea. Just figured "Robert" is probably tarnished thanks to Uncle Albany, and "David III father of David IV" didn't really jingle my bells, so thought it would be funny if the Stuarts are "David" and "James" like the Oldenburgs were Frederick and Christian

I'm sure that Alexander is available besides David and James right?
Quick question. In a scenario where ALL of Louis XI's sons survive and the youngest, François, were to decide to enter the clergy (say as an added incentive he has health problems), eventually being named a cardinal. What would be likely bishoprics/archbishoprics for him to be named to? Was thinking archbishop of Reims or Lyons (either the bishop who crowns the new king or the Primate of Gaul), but were there any others likely?

I meant Louis XI "the Spider":
- Louis (18 October 1458 – 1460) - here would marry Marie of Burgundy
- Joachim (15 July 1459 – 29 November 1459) - maybe Anne of Savoy? Isabel of Castile?
- Louise (born and died in 1460)
- Anne (3 April 1461 − 14 November 1522)
- Joan (23 April 1464 – 4 February 1505)
- Louis (born and died on 4 December 1466) marries TBD
- Charles VIII of France (30 June 1470 – 8 April 1498)[50] marries TBD
- Francis, Duke of Berry (3 September 1472 – November 1473) joins the church
Anne of Savoy is much more likely than Isabel for Joachim and I agree on the Louis/Mary match
was just spitballing names, TBH.
Any ideas on the clerical posts?
