Armand at Bordermarch<BR><BR></FONT></DIV>Nobility in fief out rank
peerages. But if they get CBs when they step down the form of address
remains the same, His-Her Excellency. If we are referreing to their
Excellencies it is appropriate to do so as follows:<BR><BR>His Excellency
Elfsea, Baron Armand Dragonetti, Centurion of the Sable Star (CSS when
written)<BR>Her Excellency Elfsea, Baroness Ameline du Bois, Mistress of the
Laurel (ML when written)<BR><BR> It is never appropriate to use
multiple forms of address or titles. For example Her Excellency
Mistress Stella Silvana, Mistress of the Laurel and the Pelican (plus any of
her other numerous accolades) is most correct all of the time. While Her
Excellency Mistress Mistress Baroness Stella Silvana is both incorrect and
inappropriate. On certain occasions another title may be desired by her
for example in the Lysts she could prefer to be addressed using the marshal
title she is entitled to use in Ansteorra and be announced into the Lysts as:
Her Excellency Centurion Stella Silvana. <BR><BR>The tough one is their
Graces Mahdi and Valeria, Baron and Baroness of the Steppes the words "OF THE"
become very important. but enough of that etiquette lesson for
today. I remain<BR><BR>ever in service, <BR><BR>Tomas<BR>
