It would seem that, after entering my full name....I am none other than,
His Grace Lord ******** The Sophisticated, of Giggles Under The Table.
Pretty well sums it all up, really. Now, if someone would be kind enough to point the way under the table, perhaps I can get some kip.

Honourable Lady Beth the Funereal of Featherstonehaugh St Fanshaw

I guess we're neighbors, Jillian. Featherstonehaugh St Fanshaw sounds like a fun place--scattered and funereal?!

Using my id, I'm Her Most Noble Lady Taesma the Perplexed of Pease Pottage. That just about says it all.

My oldest daughter is Her Most Noble Lady ****** the Pertinacious of Under Yockenthwaite. Most appropriate! And the younger is Reverend Lady ***** the Eerie of Divine Intervention. Um...not quite sure what to make of that one...

I hope I am not telling you something you already know, if I am , ignore, but:
Featherstonehaugh is pronounced Fanshaw. (I know, go figure!)It is one of those old names that has been gradually changed over time , like Cholmondelay being "Chumley", and some others I can't recall.
(Later....) I found some:
Althorp – pronounced 'Awltrup'
Belvoir – pronounced 'Beever'
Cholmondely – 'Chumli'
Featherstonehaugh – 'Fanshaw'
Leicester – 'Lester'
Leominster – 'Lemster'
Leveson-Gower – 'Loosen-Gaw'
Magdalen – 'Maudlin'
Mainwaring – 'Mannering'
Marjoribanks – 'Marchbanks'
Ralph – 'Rafe'
Ranulph – 'Ralph'
St. John – 'Sin Jin'
Towcester – 'Toaster'
Woolfardisworthy – 'Woolseri'
Wriothesley – 'Roxli'
and the Scots name Menzies, pronounced Mingus

Now I wouldn't have had any idea how to pronounce those without your help. I would have been close on three of the names as they are close to some names in our Northeast, but good grief, I wouldn't have come anywhere near close to Fanshaw for Featherstonehaugh! Thanks for the information.
