England will probably keep them :p

Still the UK will break apart most likely from a hard brexit, and it ll just be England + Wales left.
People will have to stop calling it the UK (if scotland + ireland leave)

Not really. The United Kingdom of England and Wales would still work, so it'd still be the UK.

Well, the problem with that is that the name The United Kingdom comes from the union of England and Scotland. They technically also own the Irish Crown, hence why Ireland is a republic, and why the full title of the UK is The Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland. Wales was fully conquered in the 13th century but it took until the 16th century until they got to live under the same rules as the englishmen.

But even after aNIxit and a Scoxit, that still may remain true, in a way at least. After all, The Queen is still recognized as head of state in the commonwealth countries like Canada or New Zealand. which makes them technically monarchies. And even though they would be leaving the UK, the Royals wouldn't have to relinquish their titles. They might only be united in name by then, but it would still stand.
