He would have been born as Prince of Bavaria (in German Prinz von Bayern) and von Bayern would be a more accurate LNAB.
The German literature has used "von Wittelsbach" for members of the family as early as the 12th century, and if we stick with Wittelsbach, as unwieldy this may be, we might as well follow the German customs for this German family. But again, I have no problems doing away with Wittelsbach and using the different lines instead.
The Germany Project would like to co-manage this profile with you. You are welcome to stay on as either a PM or on the Trusted List. If I don't hear back from you in the next week, I'll go ahead and add Germany as a co-manager. Any questions, please let me know.
Thanks! Traci Thiessen ~ Germany Project co-leader
