Spock, even if she does have Knight as her last name, technically she would have to be a Dame ....

Now, now, hekky...the thread title was "One Thousand and One Knights", not "One Thousand and One Persons Upon Whom a British Honourific Has Been Conferred". The rule you made was that they had to be from the 20th century (blatantly violated by the inclusion of Sil Wartel Larreigh)

Gladys Knight is just as much a knight as these; nay, more so, for her knightliness in inherent, innate, she was born with it, whilst knighthood was imposed, superficially and artificially placed upon these.

You fool, I changed the rules later on ...now, the honorary knighthoods I have thought about striking down...maybe after we reach 1001, we can ditch those and add some real ones.

Um, hekky...

What are the rules for this now? I note you have King Arthur's Knights of the Round Table on the list, so I'm guessing it's not actual existence.

The rules are, have to be at least relatively real

Definitely want REAL knights, but since, I think it was Finrod or DB listed all those Arthurian chaps, I figured it wouldn't hurt...

All ages allowed, btw...since the beginnings of knighthood...
