Louis III of Germany

Louis III of Germany

Two Carolingian kings of the East Franks have both, rather confusingly, been sometimes assigned the name and ordinal Louis III of Germany:
*Louis the Younger, son of Louis II of Germany
*Louis the Child, grandnephew of the previous. He would rather have been Louis IV of Germany
