Royal Babies Don't Have Last Names

Royals can have three to four first names but they don't officially have last names. In 1960, Queen Elizabeth II took on the surname Mountbatten-Windsor for her children to distinguish her own line from the Windsor house. This last name is optional though, and the royal household rarely uses it.
