@Edent Someone else wrote about this, the other day. When I worked at British Gas we had this, on and old DOS system too.

It used to have "Rear Admiral" - at age 20 it's was amusing 😂

@Edent great point. This is almost entirely an irrelevant database field these days. Does the computer ever make any decision based on the content of that field, other than there's content in there that may be displayed? Even having a first name, last name distinction is problematic if some of the names you deal with aren't from western cultures.

@Edent So pompous!

@Edent "Prefer not to say"

Fortnums customers and their servants might be invested in all that though

@andydavies
That's "His Excellency Pompous" to you, chum!

@Edent Appologies ‘Your Highness’
