Ayatollah IS a title. For example, Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini's name is Ruhollah Khomeini and his position/title is Ayatollah. the term Ayatollah comes from the Arabic "ayat" (sign) "Allah" (God) which makes the Ayatollah, the Sign of God. Ayatollahs are highly-regarded clerics in the Shiite Islam with a similar rank in that religion to Cardinals in Catholicism or the Patriarchs in Orthodox Christianity. Sunni Islam does not have an equivalent position to Ayatollah.
