==July 2018 CL - From Pelican: Gender-neutral titles==
The April LoPaD asked for commentary on three possible gender-neutral English titles at the Award of Arms level: Armiger, Gentle, and Noble.
 
'''Armiger''' literally means a person who bears arms. The word was used after names in our period, as in "Garlof Ducheman, Armiger". We approve its use as a title in the form "(Given Name), Armiger" or "(Name), Armiger."
 
We approve '''Noble''' as a title used before a given name, as in "Noble Sampsoun" or "Noble Edwarde".
 
The majority of commenters opposed restricting use of the word '''Gentle'' to Society members of a particular rank. Therefore, we are not protecting that word as a title at this time.
