I should imagine the correct term,'for a female knight,' is DAME!
Such a one is Dame Vera Lynn!
There was a Knight with the christian name Walter - Sir Walter Raleigh
sir walter smith
Sir Killzalot
In the military a male officer would be adressed as "sir" and a female oficer addressed as "ma'am" To address a female officer as sir would be a serious faux pas.The formal mode of address to a lady would be 'madam' oftenshortened to Ma'am. Some discretion should be used before addressing a lady as 'madam'. In some areas of society, the word madam may have dubious connotations
Dame is the same thing as a Knight is for a man, except when a woman is knighted in the United Kingdom, she is addressed as Dame whatever, just as a knight would be addressed as Sir Alexander, or Sir George, etc. Knighthoods are usually only given for very high acheivement, but probably sometimes for very high birth.
Sir Knight or Sir (name)
It's the female version of "sir," in reference to a knight.
Yes but not in the way you would call a teacher your boss or a military officer "sir"In those curcimstances saying sir is just a plesentry however when addressing a knight it is their title; you cant be born to be a knight unlike other titles such as Baron or Earl you have to be raised to knighthood and have to earn it.If you were to speak to a knight the proper form would be to say "Sir" and then their first name so if Sir John Fastolf asked you to fetch the wine you should reply"Yes, Sir John"
When you become a knight the title Sir is automatic. You become a knight by being knighted by a monarch. The ceremony of knighting can be long and complex but its culmination by the initiate knelling before his monarch, being taping of each shoulder by the sword of the monarch who says something like I hereby dub thee knight. Arise Sir _____. The monarch is at this point sometimes amused to give the knight a new name. Sir Lancelot was call 'The Strong' Sir Robin """ 'The Brave' Sir Galahad '''' 'The Chaste' Don Quixote "" 'Knight of the Woeful Countenance.'
A female who has been knighted by the Queen would be known as a Dame.
Shining Knight - Sir Ystin - was created in 2005.
Andrew galilee
Dame Shirley Bassey was given this title by Queen Elizabeth II. Dame is the female equivalent of Knight or Sir.
sir gawain and the green knight
The Green Knight's name is Sir Gawain. He is a character from Arthurian legend and appears in the medieval poem "Sir Gawain and the Green Knight."
Siege Perilous (which later belongs to "Sir Galahad The High Prince")
I would consider leaving out one of the minor characters, such as the Lady of the Castle, in a brief summary of Sir Gawain and the Green Knight. This character's role is not as central to the main plot compared to Sir Gawain, the Green Knight, and King Arthur.
