As a thought experiment, let's assume for the moment that Skydragon's comment here is correct.
(Basically she said she doesn't think that Charles will create William PoW if things work out that way, out of deference to the Welsh people).
If Elizabeth predeceases Charles, William will automatically become Duke of Cornwall on Charles' Accession. So that's sorted. And he could just simply be created Prince William of the UK (&c &c), Duke of Cornwall (&c &c). (I'm not sure if he and Harry would continue to be 'of Wales', as their father's title from which they derive the territorial designation would have then Merged in the Crown).
But.. Prince of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland is a bit of a mouthful, and isn't nearly as pithy as Prince of Wales.
What, then, could it be?
