True Charless full title is a bit unweildly, "Charles the Third, by the Grace of God of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland and of His other Realms and Territories King, Head of the Commonwealth, Defender of the Faith"but calling him the King of the UK or Britain would not raised the hackles of British people calling him the KIng of England.
