Afonso, Prince Royal of PortugalAfonso, Duke of Porto – I request this move as Afonso was, for the longer part of his life, the Duke of Porto. He was only a provisional Prince Royal of Portugal, and his morganatic marriage would bar him from succession. Thus, it is only logical to have him listed under his most commonly reffered to name, as fr.wiki and pt.wiki have. Thank you, Relisted.

This discussion is not about morganatic marraiage but about what he is referred and the fact is he is referred to more commonly is Duke of Oporto than prince royal. Thank you, Cristiano Tomás (talk) 15:08, 1 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
You say he "more commonly is Duke of Oporto". I would support Afonso, Duke of Oporto. DrKiernan (talk) 11:15, 3 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the move request was: move to Afonso, Duke of Porto. It would have been better if people provided lengthier explanations, but this is in line with the Duke of Porto and Dinis, Duke of Porto articles anyway. -- tariqabjotu 03:38, 21 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]


Afonso, Duke of OportoInfante Afonso, Duke of Porto – The addition of the princely title falls inline with custom of most courtesy/royal dukes, thus distinguishing that Afonso was Duke by princely rank and not hereditary nobility. The change of Oporto to Porto just reflects the more common usage of Porto over Oporto and the common orthography of that place and title nowadays. Thank you. --Relisted. -- tariqabjotu 04:18, 11 September 2013 (UTC) Cristiano Tomás (talk) 16:23, 31 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I am fine with a move to Porto, but not with the addition of Infante. Srnec (talk) 18:52, 31 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose. Per sources given above in the previous requested move. DrKiernan (talk) 20:27, 31 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
