In addition (had to check this) on Charles taking the Throne, William will also 
become automatically Duke of Rothesay (title held by the Heir Apparent to the 
Throne of Scotland) and I think he will become Earl of Carrick, Baron Renfrew, 
Lord of the Isles and Great Steward of Scotland (these look like they are 
conferred automatically on the Heir Apparent) based on when Prince Charles got 
them, when Edward VIII took them, and George V took them, but I can't actually 
confirm that.
