Or just deprecate one of them, following Laurel's suggestion from the
December 2003 LoAR Cover Letter:

    Kingdoms and principalities that currently have arms registered
    for the consort or heirs are encouraged to consider following
    period practice and to discontinue the use of the armory.

I'm inclined to think that a designation change would not require
polling the populace via the Black Star, but only Laurel could say for
sure.  A change to the emblazon would require it ("Kingdoms and
principalites that currently have arms registered for the consort or
heirs .... We shall require a poll of the populace showing support for
changes to the armory.", plus AH for polling in general).  I've only
glanced thru LoARs back to 1990 for "sovereign" but I see no
precedents involving it.
