Sealed, stamped & registered
What makes a Make Me A Lord title certificate the real article
Every novelty title we issue carries three marks of house: the registry trust seal, the official burgundy wax stamp and our armorial crest. They are the reason a certificate from us looks like something worth framing rather than something run off a printer.
An officially registered novelty title
The gold trust seal is struck on to every certificate entered into the The Make Me A Lord Title Registry. Each novelty title receives a permanent ML registry number, so anyone can verify a Lord or Lady title against the public record.
Sealed with the official wax stamp
Our commissioned wax seal, poured burgundy, gilt coronet and shield, is pressed into the foot of every personalised novelty title certificate, on screen and in the print-ready PDF alike.
Struck with the Make Me A Lord armorial crest
The house crest, lion, helm and quartered shield, heads your deed of title, your gift card and your digital title page, so the whole set reads as one made-in-Britain collection.

Before you buy
Novelty title questions, answered
- Is a Make Me A Lord title a real legal peerage?
- No. Every title we issue is a novelty courtesy title for entertainment and gifting. It is not a legal peerage, it grants no legal rights and it does not change your name on official documents.
- How quickly do I receive my certificate?
- Within minutes. As soon as payment clears, your certificate and deed are generated as PDFs, your registry entry is created and everything is emailed to you and available in your account.
- Can I buy a novelty title as a gift for someone else?
- Yes. Enter the recipient's name as it should appear on the certificate, add a gift message, and you can either print it yourself or forward the documents on the day.
- What is the difference between Lord, Baron and Duke titles?
- They differ in rank and in the coronet struck on the certificate, the baron's silver-gilt circlet, the duke's strawberry-leaf crown and the lord's pearled band. The price and the package are the same.
- How much does a novelty Lord title cost?
- One flat price per title, whichever rank you choose, with the certificate, the deed, the registry entry and your digital estate plot all included. Bundles for couples and families are priced on the titles page.
- Do I get a printable certificate and a deed?
- Yes. Both arrive as print-ready A4 PDFs, set with our coat of arms artwork, the burgundy wax stamp and the gold trust seal, so they can be framed straight from the printer.
- Do I really get a piece of land?
- You get a digital estate plot on our map of the United Kingdom, which is a novelty feature for fun. It carries no real property rights, no tenancy and no legal interest in any land.
- Can other people verify my title?
- Yes. Each title receives a registry number that anyone can check on our public registry, where entries are shown sealed with the gold trust seal and with holder details partly masked for privacy.
