Well, that's also a good match, and the appeal is quite easily found tooWould be a good match perhaps? The notion of male Catherine's oldest daughter marrying Henry VIII's oldest son does have a appeal to me.

Yes, it is fine.Okay, so no female Arthur and Ferdinand jr match. I just thought it was ironic. Female Arthur marries James in 1501 then. What happens with Elizabeth Tudor b 1489 then?
The Portuguese double marriage is okay thou with everyone?
I like it.Let's say that Anne of Navarre is born strong and healthy instead and go from there.

Seems sensible enough Although, it's a bit odd that there isn't a James, Mary or Eleanor in the mix anywhere. I could see James instead of John, as that name has some negative connotations both in English and Scottish historyAn alternate tree to my previous Charles i/Brandenburger match.
Charles I of England, Scotland and Ireland (b.1600) m Maria Eleonora of Brandenburg (b.1599) in 1620
Fair, though depending on how things go between Charles and James before the latter dies, Charles could decide to retire the name. Mary I think was largely due to it being the English version of Henrietta Maria's name, but fair, so maybe something like this:Seems sensible enough Although, it's a bit odd that there isn't a James, Mary or Eleanor in the mix anywhere.

I suppose he could retire it yeah, and, well, Mary and Eleanor would also be the English version of Maria and Eleonora after allFair, though depending on how things go between Charles and James before the latter dies, Charles could decide to retire the name.

Jasper is too welsh for being used and Henry VIII would have no reason for liking that name. George after the saint, Lionel or Arthur or also John are far likelier in my opinion.Paging @isabella

George Tudor then for the last baby boy.Jasper is too welsh for being used and Henry VIII would have no reason for liking that name. George after the saint, Lionel or Arthur or also John are far likelier in my opinion.
George of Clarence not going to warn him off from that name?George Tudor then for the last baby boy.
Jasper is not a welsh name - and it would be a perfectly suitable name for a Tudor prince imho, especially a younger one, as Jasper Tudor is a good example of unshakeable loyalty to one’s family (and Henry would no doubt want his younger boys to be doggedly loyal to their oldest brother)Jasper is too welsh for being used and Henry VIII would have no reason for liking that name. George after the saint, Lionel or Arthur or also John are far likelier in my opinion.
Why not a name from Eleanor’s family? Philip, Charles, Ferdinand.Jasper is too welsh for being used and Henry VIII would have no reason for liking that name. George after the saint, Lionel or Arthur or also John are far likelier in my opinion.
The Duke of York is named Charles and her youngest daughter is named for Eleanor's mother Juana.Why not a name from Eleanor’s family? Philip, Charles, Ferdinand.
I doubt who Margaret‘s third husband would be King Consort hereWI Henry VIII, Katherine of Aragon and their daughter Mary all died from the sweating sickness in 1528?

Maybe so. I don't know, I think he'd have fought for whatever the English version of the crown matrimonial wasI doubt who Margaret‘s third husband would be King Consort here
