Spelling

Is it Anthony or Antony ? I have seen both spellings. Hektor 16:26, 30 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Succession

Does anyone know whether or not the baby will be in the Luxembourg list of succession. Hektor 16:26, 30 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Probably not. I don't think illegitamte children are allowed in the line of succession. Unless the baby is legitimized, he or she probably won't be and chances are, won't have a title either. Morhange 17:58, 9 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Problems

This article has several problems:

It is entirely unsourced.

Its subject is non-notable.

Its subject is not a member of any royal house; therefore the stub is incorrect.

I rm the inappropriate stub; I'm tempted to prod the whole thing, but I'll leave it alone in hopes it may be improved and its subject be shown to have some notability. John Reid 23:32, 14 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Added a source from a Luxembourgish (is that right, ha) online paper. Morhange 01:38, 15 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I dislike editing conflicts of any kind, so I'm not likely to oppose you strongly; but I suggest you either abandon this article or invest a lot more into it. Your source is in a foreign language and -- judging strictly by length -- says little. There is no evidence that the subject of the article is in any way a notable person. Simply having a relationship with a notable person (granting, for the sake of the argument, that the third son of the titular ruler of Luxembourg is notable) does not confer notability upon oneself.

Name

Shouldn't this article now be titled Tessy de Nassau? Charles 18:52, 4 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

No, her legal name is Antony. The article should be moved back. By Luxembourgish law women retain their birth (or maiden) name at and after marriage.--Caranorn (talk) 19:04, 11 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Please do not move back to the incorrect de Nassau designation. Unless a specific law was passed for this person, she would like all other women married in Luxembourg retain her birth (or maiden) name at and after marriage. Of course she is known informally as Tessy de Nassau, or Tessy de Nassau - Antony. But any official document has to have her name as Antony. Unless of course as I said a special law had been passed, but then that, as a clear exception to the rule, would have to be sourced appropriately.--Caranorn (talk) 19:16, 11 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not sure, but wasn't there a Ducal decree promulgated recarding Tessy and de surname "de Nassau"? Demophon (talk) 20:24, 11 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
