"Juana" or "Juana la Loca" for Joanna of Castile - also, Isabella I has "Castile" misspelled. And the Empress of Russia is generally known as "Anna," not "Anne."

The changes have been made, Joana will still show up but Juana and Juana la loca is now accepted.

Isn't "Hedwig" generally known as Jadwiga?

Like the quiz, but I'm not sure of the logic of requiring numbers for some queens and not for others. I tried 180 different spellings of Isabella before I realised you just wanted a I at the end!

I thought my not being able to spell the Danish version of Margaret was the reason I couldn't get the current Danish queen, turns out I had it right and you just wanted "Margaret II". Not knowing my 600 year old Scandinavian history I wasn't up on the existence of former Margarets. I do think you should consider accepting native spellings though.

Well the reason Ive been included numbers for some and not for others is because obv some countries have had more than one of the same named monarch, think if accepted names without numbers would make the quiz a little too easy. But i agree with the points of accepting native spelling and including Jadwiga

Yes, second here for native names. I was sure it was Margrethe (and I was right), but it wouldn't accept it, and it didn't occur to me to try an Anglicised version.

You should accept "Beatriz" for "Beatrice" in the Portuguese list.

Reminds me of a history prof of mine who once said, "all female royalty in the Middle Ages were named Margaret."

There was another queen Joan, of Sicily, that I'm aware of....
