Is the wife of a mayor the mayoress?
The Wife of a Lord Mayor in the United Kingdom is properly and officially refereed to as a Lady Mayoress, citing the suffix -ess as applied for feminine titles in English. Many former British Colonies follow suit, such as in Australia. Similar to the designation "First Lady", the Lady Mayoress has a symbolic nature towards events and the nation in general towards the area she represents. When the Lord Mayor is female, she usually is not designated as the Lady Mayoress, but takes the title of Lord Mayor. There have been cases, however, of a female as Lord Mayor and her mother as Lord Mayoress, such as in Brisbane,UK. In America, no such designation is official, but it is still a recognized term for the wife or a lady holding the position of mayor, although is not very popular as an American designation.
