In Sundast, the nobility use a prefix before their surname in addition to title to showcase their rank. Unless married into a new family, children will carry on the prefix of their parents with the highest rank. Example: Even though through current Sundastian law she can never inherit her family’s title, Cerenae’s surname is still la’Orater and not bel’Orater (which denotes a Lady). Common folk and merchants do not usually claim prefixes. Below is the full list of name prefixes.
Male/Female
al/ab –‘Sureen Family Royal rank
doh/fah -‘Adessa Family Royal rank
lun/la –Fourth Rank noble (Duke/Duchess)
do/dar –Third Rank noble (Count/Countess)
van/vo –Second Rank noble (Baron/Baroness)
bo/bel –First Rank noble (Lord/Lady)
