"His Royal Highness passed away peacefully this morning at Windsor Castle.
"The Royal Family join with people around the world in mourning his loss."
His full name is listed as "His Royal Highness The Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh formerly known as Prince Philippos of Greece and Denmark formerly known as Philip Mountbatten," on the death certificate.
Two occupations are listed, his first being Naval Officer, while his second is "husband of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, The Sovereign."
