The late Queen Elizabeth was an important woman of many names, titles and styles, some of which were also private family nicknames, with a particularly hilarious one being given to her by a young Prince William.

While she was known as Queen Elizabeth II or Her Majesty in Britain, she was known as 'Mother of all People' by the Salish nation in Canada, ‘Paramount Chief’ to many in Fiji, and ‘The White Heron’ by the Maori people of New Zealand.The former monarch's full and official title was: Elizabeth II, by the Grace of God, of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland and of her other realms and territories Queen, Head of the Commonwealth, Defender of the Faith.However, when it came to life behind the palace doors, her family members had another handful of more unofficial nicknames that they used to address the Queen including 'Gan Gan' 'cabbage' 'sausage' and even 'Lilibet' which Prince Harry and Meghan Markle named their daughter after.However, there is one hilarious pet name that tops all of these that a young Prince William started referring to his grandmother as, the Mirror reports.

According to the Daily Mail, the Prince of Wales was playing at Buckingham Palace as a young boy when he took a little fall and called out for help.

But instead of shouting for his ‘Granny’, he yelled for ‘Gary’- much to the confusion of everyone else present. The column reports : “A guest who went to help asked who Gary was, assuming it must be a member of the royal household. ‘I’m Gary,’ responded the Queen. "'He hasn’t learned to say Granny yet'." Prince William also had his own fair share of nicknames over the years that have been given to him by everyone from his later mother Princess Diana to his wife Kate
