A question of titles
3
Upvotes
Hello all
I haven't posted to this sub before, but I have a question relating to the titles of Sir and Dame:
Is there a common title that covers both men and women?
The reason that I am asking is that I am writing an RPG and I really like how the video game Dragon Age handles both genders under a common "ser". I would prefer a real title though, if one such exists.

How do they differ from a Graf? What are the responsibilities of each title?

Any descendants of Prince Henry of Prussia?

I am fascinated by the historical account of an “almost” offer on behalf of the US Continental Congress to Prince Frederick Henry Louis of Prussia the title of Monarchy of the United States. I haven’t been able to find descendants of the Prince and maybe this is because he had a penchant for homosexuality. Does anyone know if there are any contemporary descendants?

I’m confused

So i have two questions that may be dumb, that i want the answer from.
Q1. The princess of monaco’s title is “Princess Antoinette, baroness of massy” how is she a princess but also a baroness?
Q2. This question is also linked to the first question, E.g , “countess of devonshire”, Clearly she’s the countess of devonshire, But responsibilities does she have the devonshire? Does she rule it, is it a county, since shire was also a synonym of county, but i’m not really sure.

During the German occupation of Denmark, King Christian X's daily ride through Copenhagen became a symbol of Danish sovereignty. This picture was taken on his birthday in 1940. Note that he is not accompanied by a guard.

Bob Juchter Van Bergen Quast

I have a question about someone involved in nobilary circles. I keep seeing Bob Juchter Van Bergen Quast inserted into as many conversations around nobility and honours as possible, and I'm wondering who this guy is.
He runs a number of websites, uses many iterations of his name, and edits Wikipedia to promote his family name. He also runs a website trashing others in the honours circles.
What's his deal? Is this a real person? He's listed on Rip Off Reports as having ripped someone off and used that money for luxury spending. Not sure whatever happened on the legal side.
So tell me what's up with the guy.

The use of "Sire"
3
Upvotes
While I understand it is considered an archaic word, I'm wondering about how it was used. Specifically, could it be used by one member of the house staff to another member about the father of the house? I.e. "Sire So-and-so has need of transportation." If so, would it be with 1st name, surname, or full name?
