This Court Titles category is meant to list offices and other titles that are awarded as appointments to a royal or similar court:

  • either to actual courtiers in domestic, ecclestiastical, military or other attendance to a Monarch or other dignitary whose household(s) is/are styled court
  • or as an essentially honorific title, either limited to occasional duty (usually ceremonial, such as a part in the coronation), or as a -rather ficticious- sinecure.

It may also accomodate related terms, notably of a more generic nature.


It is not aimed at any other meaning of the word court, such as in Officer of the court (meaning a court of law)
