I don’t really have a response to the OP, but if I were a guest, I would consider changing my user title to “Charter Mernber”. In certain fonts, “rn” looks a lot like “m”, so you could fake being a “Charter Member.” In the font that’s currently used, it’s obviously a fake, but it’s close. . . ---

Someone has Band as their title (I think it is), and even that has faked me out already. ---

The only thing I can think of off hand is: Custom Title. Although, if I had a boat, it would be the: Polysyllabic Designation\*. That might work as a title. \*from Schlock Mercenary [Next page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/if-you-were-going-to-buy-a-custom-title-what-would-it-be/531030.md?page=2)
