Form of Address
Dukes and other individuals who are grandees are entitled to the style of Most Excellent Lord/Lady or His/Her Excellency. Also, individuals who hold a princedom (rare outside the royal family) are addressed as Most Excellent Lord/Lady.
Titled nobles (without a grandeeship) who are of the rank of marquis or count use the style Most Illustrious Lord/Lady. Those who hold a title with the rank of viscount, baron or Señor use simply Señor/Señora.
