|

Sorry, but I am frustrated. I am looking for the thread on titles, but cannot find it, or the one I am looking for. Anyway, if anyone could help me, I would appreciate it. I need to know how one would address a royal who has no throne to sit. For example, Princess Anastasia of Russia. If she were to pop up today, how would she be addressed? She would be the only living heir to the throne of Russia, but since there is no throne any longer, would she still be 'your majesty' or 'your highness' or would there be another title that would be appropriate? And I am not interested in Czarina, although I realize that that would be proper for Russia. She is just the only example I can think of, off-hand. _________________ The only opinions that count, are those of the ones in control.

Well, I know Anastasia was technically the Grand Duchess of Russia, but that's as far as my knowledge extends. Hope you find what you're looking for. _________________ Hurin: Aurë entuluva! Aurë entuluva! Aurë entuluva!

I think she was probably the Grand Duchess as long as her brother and older sisters were alive. But if, as legend would have it, she survived the scourging, then would that not make her the next in line? So, she would be Czarina Anastasia, would she not? But that still leaves me with no term of address. Still looking. _________________ The only opinions that count, are those of the ones in control.
