Both Nicholas I and Nicholas II’ s consort converted their names to Alexandra Feodorovna.
Nicholas I married Charlotte of Prussia and Nicholas II married Alex of Hesse. Both marriages were happy.
However, in personality they were very different, Charlotte was the obedient and admiring supporter of her husband’s views. Her personality was completely overshadowed by Nicholas I’s strong character. As empress, she had no interest in charity work.
Alix was very political, even interfering in her husband’s government affairs, highlighting his weak personality.
