Before we took “prince” from French, the Old English word was æðeling, or ‘noble one’. Long ago, forms of this word were spoken all across Germania: Old Norse ǫðlingr, Old High German adaling, Old Saxon eđiling, Old Frisian etheling. Now every Germanic language uses the French. If æðeling had survived into Modern English, it’d be “addling,” or maybe even “atheling,” pronounced much the same as a thousand years ago.
