  • SOSJ SJ Inner Workings 01 Post-Nominals (2) Revised Nov 17
    Title: Deciphering Post-Nominal Letters Our Sovereign Order has a long and wonderful history and many traditions that reflect that history. These sometimes can be opaque to us today, and so from time to time it is helpful to review these “inner workings” to broaden the understanding among our members of how and why we do things. The letters after a person’s name tell us something about the person’s status and achievements within our Sovereign Order. To decipher this code, we need to be clear about three different elements of a person’s status within the order: 1) Type of membership 2) Rank and grade 3) Honours awarded. Types of Membership Our Constitution and Rules provide for three types of membership: 1) Dames and Knights – full members with voting rights, minimum age of 23 2) Demoiselles and Squires – full members without voting rights, minimum age of 18 3) Donats – employees or others serving the Sovereign Order being so honored. The third category is rarely used but provides a means by which a person who has faithfully served our Sovereign Order may be “admitted into the Order” while “not being admitted to full Membership.” Donats are not awarded post-nominal letters, and they needn’t be Christian so long as they have served faithfully and are deemed deserving of special recognition. Demoiselles and Squires are full members of our Sovereign Order. They are not awarded post-nominal letters but may hold offices of trust, though these usually will be at the Commandery level. They are eligible for promotion to Dame or Knight upon reaching the requisite age but, like all promotions, this must be earned by service and is adjudicated by the normal promotion assessment process.
