The first son is the Prince of Wales, signifying that he is the heir to the throne. Prince Charles holds this title at the moment.
Second in line is the Duke of York. Prince Andrew holds this one.
Third is the Earl of Wessex. Prince Edward holds this title today.

it style of feels that there is a precedent for giving the call of Duke of York to a 2d son. no longer counting King George VI (who had no sons and became the daddy of the present Queen), King George V's 2d son Albert (the destiny King George VI) became created Duke of York. the present Queen's 2d son Andrew is likewise Duke of York. Prince George of Wales (later King George V) became the 2d son of Edward, Prince of Wales (later King Edward VII). He became created Duke of York by utilising his grandmother, Queen Victoria, despite if he wasn't the son of a monarch on the time. King George III's 2d son, Prince Frederick, became titled Duke of York and Albany. Queen Victoria's 2d son Alfred became no longer created Duke of York. rather he became created Duke of Edinburgh and later inherited the call of Duke of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha from his paternal uncle. except his Uncle Prince Andrew dies upfront, it is not likely that Prince Harry would be granted this call. As Prince Andrew in straightforward terms has daughters and no sons, the call will revert lower back to the Crown upon his death.
