[Opinions] Re: Milady

8 boys named MASTER?
Oh my!
I can't imagine these kids actually were called those names by their own mothers. It's just TOO comic to be believed.
I have less objection to the ones that don't sound like deferential forms of address, but are just words for authority figures, like Queen or Judge or Captain.
Milady seems especially silly because it is never used for address in modern times. So it's not absolutely exasperating like Boss or Sir or Master.
