Who knew that people named Gary and Tungsten resided in exclusive abodes
like Buckingham Palace and Kensington Palace inLondon?
谁能想到叫盖瑞和钨(金属)的人住在伦敦类似白金汉宫和肯辛顿宫的私人府邸?
To be sure, those of course aren't the real names of residents but rather
nicknames that have recently been revealed to the public.

From Queen Elizabeth II to Meghan Markle, seemingly every member of the
Royal Family has at least one nickname.
从伊丽莎白二世到梅根马克尔，看起来每个皇室成员都至少有一个昵称。
One of Queen Elizabeth II's numerous nicknames is indeed Gary, given to her
by Prince William in his childhood when he couldn't correctly pronounce
'granny,' instead saying 'Gary.'
伊丽莎白二世的其中一个绰号就叫盖瑞，原因是在威廉王子还小的时候发不清“奶奶”这个音，就喊“盖瑞”取而代之。
According to one story, Prince William's call for Gary in Buckingham Palace
once sparked considerable confusion before the Queen came over, saying: ‘I'm
Gary. He hasn't learned to say granny yet.’

Prince William's son Prince George has reportedly nicknamed his
great-grandmother ‘Gan-Gan.’

The Queen is also known as 'Lilibet,' though it's also been reported that
Prince Philip has referred to her as ‘sausage’ in the past. She's referred to as
'Mama' by many members of the Royal Family as well.
这个女王还有一个名字是Lilibet，据报道菲利普亲王曾经叫女王 “香肠”。在众多皇室成员中很多人叫女王“妈妈”。
Meghan Markle may be the newest member of the Royal Family, but she’s
already earned a nickname courtesy of Prince Charles.
梅根马克尔是新晋的皇室成员，不过她已经有查尔斯王子给她取的绰号了。
He reportedly calls her ‘Tungsten’ after the metal due to her ‘tough and
unbending’ nature.

general public.

friends.
他还有个梅根的朋友取的绰号——叫“Hazza”。
