Here is my version based on combining the Aristocrat NPC class, and the Noble class from AGoT.

I like this Aristocrat/Noble. And I completely agree with Arkhandus that Aristocrats who are martially inclined will multiclass with fighter or knight.

I think it will help your design if you visualize queens, princesses, duchesses, countesses, etc. How did being a high level Aristocrat help Eleanor of Aquitaine? or Elizabeth I? In other words, design your class for the historical female aristocrats and let the men multiclass with fighter and knight.

As a final note, I think it would be worthwhile to require all PCs who wish to become a fighter, cleric, or wizard to start off with at least 1 level of Aristocrat. Historically it was only the aristocracy who had the wealth and leisure time to train knights, fighting priests, and alchemists & astrologers. The middle class would source the warriors not the fighters.
