Let me see if I can get some of them right. I'm doing this from
guessing. *grin* I know some of them (like Centurion) are probably
wrong.

AoA          - Award of Arms
KG           - King's Gauntlet
QG           - Queen's Glove
Lion         - Order of the Lions of Ansteorra
Falcon       - Sable Falcon
AQR          - Queen's Rapier
Thistle      - Sable Thistle (These have sub-classes.)
Crane        - Sable Crane
CSM          - Companion to the Order of the Star of Merit
CIM          - Companion to the Order of the Iris of Merit
WSA          - Companion to the Order of the White Scarf of Ansteorra
OC           - Companion to the Order of the Centurion
OL           - Companion to the Order of the Laurel

KSCA         - Companion to the Order of the Chivalry - Knight
MSCA or MoA  - Companion to the Order of the Chivalry - Master of Arms

There are a whole bunch of awards that I'm missing.

These are the alphabets and not the honorific titles associated with them.
