Last weekend I saw Stardust, which is a rather good movie. One of the plot points was the King of Stormhold was dying, and the throne would be passed onto one of his sons. Tradition dictated that the sons literally kill each other and the last son alive would become the next ruler of stronghold. There were seven princes:

Primus
Secundus
Tertius
Quartus
Quintus
Sextus
Septimus

Obviously named for the order they were born in.

They also had a sister, Una. I thought that was kind of weird, naming her "one," as if there would only be one princess. What if the king and queen only had daughters?

Any thoughts?
