Please clarify if I'm wrong, ok?  :)

I thought that 'nobility' was either the heads of households, baronies,
kingdoms, or any knights/peers/holders of AoA's, etc.  Anyone entitled to be
called Lord, Lady or higher.

And that anyone without an AoA, or other standing listed above was
considered a 'commonor'.

Am I close?  Just wondering.
