Honorifics
The Lord Mayors of London, Bristol and York are styled The Right Honourable.1 All other Lord Mayors, as well as the Mayors of cities and the original Cinque Ports (Sandwich, Hythe, Dover, Romney and Hastings), are styled The Right Worshipful. All other Mayors are styled The Worshipful, though this is in practice seldom used for a Town Mayor. These honorific styles are used only before the Mayoral title and not before the name, and are not retained after the term of office.
A Mayor usually appoints a consort, usually a spouse, other family member or fellow councillor. The designated female consort of a Mayor is called the Mayoress and accompanies the Mayor to civic functions. A female Mayor is also called Mayor, not as sometime erroneously called, "Lady Mayoress". A Mayoress or Lady Mayoress is a female consort of a Mayor or Lord Mayor; a male consort of a female Mayor or Lord Mayor is the Mayor's Consort or Lord Mayor's Consort.
