English ain't my first language, so I'll refer to the L O R E.

Though if you suggest something better, I don't mind.

I ain't sure it's better, we need English-speaker like... @DukeJeans.

I think, making it High Lord/Lady might be better (not taking lore into consideration)

A lot of lore characters referenced as Highlords:

No, its impossible and really strange to pronounce to woman "Highlord". Its Highlady. In count-level women are "lady" in game, if you see.

But in this case wife of Anduin not a paladin.

Highlord is used by ogres, demons, secular humans etc.

"Highlord" doesn't actually exist in English, but "overlord" and "lord mayor" do, and both are used by women as well as men. It makes sense to have "highlord" as a female title.

Personally the female version of highlord should be Lady. But it's only an opinion. Could just change it to Queen.

@cal0497 these titles are taken. Lord and Lady are count tier titles. Queen is king tier title.

Meeeh, don't think so. Looks like we didn't agree on this.
