It's not technically an "award", but part of the service name given on formation, if formed under the auspices of a king or queen (the Royal Navy was, the British Army was not, the latter being formed of regiments having an individual "Royal" prefix).

The prefix "Royal" is typically awarded to military units by royal decree or by a royal family member, signifying a special connection or favor with the reigning monarch or royal family. It is often given in recognition of exceptional service, bravery, or loyalty to the crown.
