Title
Until 2004 adopted children of peers had no right to any courtesy title. However as a result of a Royal Warrant dated 30 April 2004 adopted children are now automatically entitled to such styles and courtesy titles as their siblings. Therefore on that date Naomi March became Lady Naomi Gordon-Lennox.
