It doesn't contain the name Will. Like I said it's a pretty easy clue. I don't like the band but have heard of them, and I'm sure you have too. I'm surprised mars hasn't jumped in with the answer already.

It's the second in line to the throne part which has thrown(no pun intended) me. And the second name sounds something like 'Good' 'Son' based on those clues.
