The title of Earl of Eltham has been created two times as a subsidiary title. The first creation was in the Peerage of Great Britain in 1726 as a subsidiary title for the Duke of Edinburgh, eldest son of the Prince of Wales. This merged in the crown in 1760

The second creation was in 1917 in the Peerage of the United Kingdom for the Duke of Teck, brother of Queen Mary, who gave up his German titles for the British title of Marquess of Cambridge.
