I imagine the line of English kings would look something like:

William I
William II
Henry I
Stephen/Matilda
Henry II
Richard I
Richard II
Richard III
Richard IV
Richard V
Richard VI
Goose I
 
Weren't most of the early Plantagenet first sons named after their grandfathers?
I'd go Henry first then William or Richard second
 
Duke of Cornwall?

In Richards case if he still loves and rules Aquitaine, then maybe Prince of Aquitaine?
 

It's

Banned
John's son was Henry (later the long-reigning Henry III), so Richard would not have picked that. Maybe not naming his son after himself because of his father's naming his son Henry; young Henry died young, so maybe Richard might have thought it a bad omen. Ditto Geoffrey in dying young. Alexander- a king of Scotland already or recently?
Edward might have been another good candidate cf William.
Name not listed- Maybe Phillip, after his French boyfriend.:kissingheart:

Aha, was Philip really his boyfriend though?
 
Aquitaine would go to a second son of Richard or Arthur himself to avoid a union between England and Aquitaine.
Unlikely Aquitaine will go to Arthur if Richard himself has a son.But yeah,I can totally see Richard giving the place to a second son.Aquitaine at it's largest extent was basically ungovernable if it's duke was long absent.
