A Right Regular Mixture

After playing hundreds of quizzes on this site I have decided it is time to "give something back".
This quiz is a mixed bag and I would like to think it presents something of a challenge.

The Question Is: When?
|
This utterly trivial quiz comes from my ignorance, or at least my difficulty in putting historical events and people in the right place and time. Just match the historical figure with the dates of birth and death.

My Nickname, please...
|
The world of the royal courts was in practice very similar one to another. Most kings took the names that were classic for the area where they reigned. In that mess of names and numbers, what distinguishes one from the other is their nickname. Good luck!

The Year 1881

Why 1881? It's a palindrome. It's outside of living memory. My favourite pub was founded that year. A number of other interesting things happened as well. And above all, why not?
