Queen Elizabeth II could be given a new title to make her 'stand out' after calls first made this summer started to draw attention following the longest-serving monarch's death. A number of monarchs throughout history have taken on titles other than their name and regnal number - including Alfred the Great, Richard the Lionheart and Edward the Confessor.
Now Lord Farmer is calling on the Queen to be retitled Elizabeth the Faithful. The former Conservative party treasurer first put forward the late Queen's tribute name during the Platinum Jubilee celebrations in order to make our longest-reigning monarch “stand out in the sweep of history”.
Now, speaking on GB News, despite initial dismissal, Lord Farmer claimed that the tribute is potentially "gaining traction" among supporters, following it being used in a recent interview with Tory MP Tom Tugendhat.
