The person above was using honorifics, which are used to denote which
rank the awards you have and/or orders you are a member of have given
you. The problem with Honorifics is the fact that there is cross-over
between them. (Master, Excellency, [Honorable] Lord) The problem with
titles is that the official names for them are so much longer than the
every day names we use.
