Walter Francis John Montagu Douglas Scott is the 9th Duke of Buccleuch, the 11th Duke of Queensbury, and the 8th Earl of Doncaster.

Michael Fergus Bowes Lyon is, at one and the same time, the 18th Earl of Strathmore and Kingborne, the 16th Earl of Strathmore, the 18th Earl of Kingborne, and the 5th Earl of Strathmore and Kingborne.

Alexander Nelson Hood is the 4th Viscount of Bridport, the 7th Duke of Bronte in Scicily, and the 6th Baron Bridport.
