What ages do you address young boy as master?

Answer 1

Yes, it is an acceptable title. I suppose that the question comes up because of the master-servant mentality, but "master" is also used in some cases where balance of power isn't an issue. ... the headmaster of a school, for instance. And calling a young person "Master such-and-such is pretty archaic in American English, but in British English it was used frequently in the past, and could be more common even today. So, it probably depends on context. It is acceptable as a grammatically correct form, yes. Appropriate for the situation... it depends. In American English, I would avoid it, using instead just the First and Last name of the young man, and no honorific.

Answer 2

In traditional etiquette, a young boy is typically addressed as "Master" until he reaches the age of around 13 or enters adolescence. This title is a sign of respect and is used as a form of address for boys who are not yet considered adults. Once a boy reaches a certain age or maturity level, he may be addressed using more adult titles such as "Mr." or his first name.

Answer 3

After its replacement in common speech by Mister, Master was retained as an address for boys or young men. By the late 19th Century, etiquette dictated that men be addressed as Mister, boys under 8 years old be addressed as Master, and from 8 to the age of maturity males not be accorded courtesy titles. However, in more recent times it is not uncommon for high-school boys (and sometimes junior-high-school boys, but not, typically, younger) to be addressed as Mister, though some etiquette writers hold that the title Mr should not be used until the boy has left school. The title Master is much less frequently used in spoken language than formerly. However, Master is still used as the written form of address for boys of some undefined age, often regarded as under 8 in formal correspondence, particularly invitations to formal affairs.
