traditionally he's just 'the prince', but many modern variants have given him a name

I wouldn't be surprised if that was often the case in these matters.

'Rapunzel' is another name for 'rampion', which is the herb her pregnant mother says she must have to eat or she'll die.

Interesting! So even Rapunzel is a nickname, after a fashion. Well, she didn't have it so bad - she could have been called Mugwort, I guess.

Off to catch the airport bus, now - we'll hammer this out face to face later!
