BBC: Buildings, parks, pubs or businesses cannot be renamed after the late Queen Elizabeth without specific permission, the Cabinet Office has warned.
The name of the late Queen is going to be "closely protected" in terms of how it can be used, says new guidance.
The Cabinet Office says permission for using the late Queen's name will only be "sparingly granted".
An "official national memorial" to the late Queen is also to be commissioned, says the Cabinet Office.
There are many places and businesses named after historic royal names - from the Royal Albert Hall to the Queen Victoria pub in BBC TV's EastEnders soap opera.
But official guidance has recently been issued by the Cabinet Office warning about the limits on using modern royal names and titles.
In particular there are concerns about ensuring the late Queen's name is only used in "dignified and appropriate" ways. » | Sean Coughlan, Royal correspondent | Friday, July 21, 2023
