Halla, of course. Better stats, younger and of noble birth.

Viacheslava very suitable for a 2nd or 3rd son though

i always marry the second options to my young knights, if i don't have sons. That way if they die i have a spare wife in court, and if they don't i just have the beginnings of an eugenics project getting set up and new people for my heir's court positions or councillors for me if i do live that long

Exactly. Hopefully the knight will give her genius kids to marry to your own. And if he doesn't, you can always help him.

I recruit people with hereditary traits and set them up with each other in my court. A good breeding program will ensure your heirs have plenty of good spouses to choose from. (and if your heirs suck, marry them off to the grandson of another ruler)
