There is no Queen Elizabeth II in Scotland. Only Queen Elizabeth. We never had a first one.

There was another one in GB, which is what the policy is post-Union: use the highest number to avoid confusion.

If there was another King James, he'd be James VIII of the UK - even though there's only be been two in England.
