As S'mon says, "Sir" is reserved for knights until quite recently, although most sons of nobles (Baron and up) would tend to be knighted if they wanted to complete the training.The general term for lesser progeny of nobles - i.e. those who do not hold lesser titles of the family/clan in their own right - would be "Lord" or "Lady".They are one of the (two) household (guard) cavalry regiments, the other being the Life Guards. The official regimental title is "The Royal Horse Guards and 1st Dragoons"; they are the guys in blue tunics under shiny breastplates and helmets with horsehair plumes you see on guard outside Royal palaces and such like.</blockquote>
