Patrilineal descent

Elizabeth's patriline is the line from which she is descended father to son.

Patrilineal descent is the principle behind membership in Germanic royal houses, can be traced back through the generations - which means that if Elizabeth II were to choose an historically accurate house name it would be Wettin, as all her male-line ancestors have been members. Patrilineality is a system in which one belongs to ones fathers lineage; it generally involves the inheritance of property, names or titles through the male line as well. ... The House of Wettin was a dynasty of German counts, dukes, prince-electors (Kurfürsten) and kings that ruled the area of todays German state of Saxony for more than 800 years as well as holding at times the kingship of Poland. ...

The line diverges from the British royal line at Victoria's husband, Prince Albert, and from then on follows his paternal ancestors.
