Caretta-Caretta

What do Caretta-Caretta sea turtles, Monachus-Monachus seals and members of ex-royal family have in common?

One day till the opening ceremony and one of the things the Greek TV likes to focus on is the arrival of VIPs. Actors, singers, prime ministers and presidents and of course prominent members of the IOC, among them Mr Konstantinos de Grecia. Mr de Grecia, formely known as Konstantinos, ex-king of Greece, chose this modest surname, when the Greek state made it clear that he could enter Greece only if he carried a passport and to do that he needed a last name. It seems though that he got tired of it, so during the games he will be called Konstantinos Konstantinos.

Hey, I'm tired of my last name, is anyone going to help me change it?
