The British Royal Family.

Or

The monarchy of the United Kingdom, commonly referred to as the British monarchy.

Why do you keep confusing Britain with the UK? Aren't you from there?

The Windsors

Don't you mean the Saxe-Coburg and Gothas?

I mean The Windsors

George V had already decided to change the family name that spring—partly at the advice of Arthur John Bigge who had served as private secretary to Victoria.

At a Privy Council meeting on July 17, 1917, George V declared that “all descendants in the male line of Queen Victoria, who are subjects of these realms, other than female descendants who marry or who have married, shall bear the name of Windsor.”

He took the new name as both the family’s house name and its surname.

Names of past British royal houses were rejected. Prime Minister Herbert Asquith opposed the name Tudor for its association with King Henry VIII and Bloody Mary. They even considered settling for “England.”

After the East End bombing, they needed to come up with something quickly. Lord Stamfordham, George V’s private secretary, suggested Windsor. The name had been associated with the English monarch going back to the Normans. Plus, he was in Windsor Castle when he thought of it.

Paranoid government officials and royal advisers did not dream up rumblings of discontent among the British public over the Royals’ German name.

On July 17, 1917, Lord Stamfordham received a letter from a Colonel Unsworth, stating: “Their strong efforts to remove, in every possible way, the German influence and power from the Court will have its fruit in the affection and loyalty of their devoted subjects.”

After George V proclaimed the name change, the Guardian approvingly editorialized: “The British Royal Family will no doubt be known in future simply as the House of Britain. War or no war, the change would be sensible, for nothing but pedantry keeps alive the German title.”

Belgium’s King Albert I—also of the House of Saxe-Coburg-Gothe—followed in George V’s footsteps in 1920. The Belgian royal family partly reversed that in 2017, reintroducing the Saxe-Coburg-Gothe shield into its coat of arms.

In the long term, the name change helped tie the British public strongly to the royal family. It would have been awkward, indeed, if, in 1940, King George VI still carried the German name.

I am not in the mind to have rewritten it in a more concise and easily to read form.

Those are the more accurate terms than The "English" royal family. The term used by the OP (on purpose I assume) is inaccurate.

i share same opinion than you, my country should trow away charles and cut the link with englishman royal family

I think a lot of people that are indifferent to the royals still feel like it's a lot of effort and a big can of worms (amending the constitution etc.) for something that doesn't really seem to have much if any benefit.

Hur hur hur. Go back to school if you ain't there already and learn something before you spout this utter nonsense without any idea at all. Are you trying to tell me your angst made up 'info' has anything to do with the 'truth and facts 'bout the UK Monarchy'

You are just too laughable to converse with.

So I'll stop.

Carry on your false narrative. Maybe someone will be convinced by this tirade of absolute and downright incompetence to speak in terms that reflect the facts... Carry on though 'cos you seem to know all about it...

In the classical era, royal families used to inbreed to thus keep the wealth and pure "blue, untainted, royal" blood within the family (far from those pesky peasants and wenches), nowadays the practice could be still used or not, I really do not pay attention.
