I know this is mostly a meme about French kings, but worth noting that Henry III naming his son Edward was a big thing at the time, seeing as it wasn’t a culturally Norman name like William, Henry or Richard. It would be like the current royal family naming their son Abdullah.
It became normalised for English kings, mostly because Longshanks was a chad.
