Subject: RE: BS: Your Peculiar Aristocratic Title From: Stilly River Sage Date: 08 Oct 07 - 01:08 PM An acquaintance on another list got the name "Entirely Miss Reverend Lady Audrey the Vehement of Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch" The Welsh conglomeration of letters was impressive! I hope someone here manages to hit something similar. My first entry used my Mudcat moniker. Using my first name, it's Her Exalted Highness Duchess Margaret the Loquacious of Porton Down It seems to detect a pattern, and certainly the demeanor. ;-D Or does it? My nickname comes up Lady Maggie the Portable of Frogging over Womble Hmmm. I have moved a lot over the years. . . |
