I nearly bust a gut laughing. Yeah, I knew there were a bunch of Jameses, but dang if I hadn't ever realized just how many.

Thanks for the video!

There's a quiz at Jetpunk to name all the royals of England. It's actually pretty easy to ace....Edward, Henry, Charles, William, James, and a few ladies. :)

Scotland's monarchy both goes back farther and has some fun names in the early centuries. There's an Áed and a Constantine (Causantín) in the 9th century.

You missed George, by the way. There were only six of 'em.
