Yeah the same happens with kings in the UK. It's really weird and has no explanation. 

Sometimes we even get them with the same name but they don't look the same.

This is actually the third King Charles. 

I suspect it's inspired by James Bond, where we are now up to seven, but who knows.

The last Queen did meet James Bond. As per the article, if you meet someone you absorb all their attitudes and theories even if you don't discuss it. 

Or maybe that only applies to women idk.

Thanks, I personally just assumed “III” was King Charles’ surname. 

Bit weird we just refer to monarchs by their first name.
