> named after the royal family (who does that anyway?)

Depends on the scope of "that", but...

Kingdom of Hanover (defunct), Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan, Liechtenstein, Virginia, Maryland, Georgia, Carolina (both), Alberta, Prince Edward Island, Victoria.

And of course Pennsylvania was named for founder William Penn.

Should we start in on cities?
