How can I put my nobility title to use?

Question

I'm 38 generation Russian prince (prince was a title for nobility not royalty) and I've never used this title before. I am going to turn 18 soon, and I am wondering if it is a good idea to put it on a driver license. I know that russian nobles obviously no longer have power, but My mother had her title on practically everything, and she sometimes got special treatment.

I don't care too much about my title, but hey if it gets me special treatment why not go for it right?

and besides driver license is there anything else I could to do put it to use?

Answer 1

I would first check to see whether you are morally entitled to your princely title.  Does your mother have the letters patent elevating *HER* family to princely rank?  I suspect that the letters patent only mentions male line descent of the title.  In other words, her male ancestor was probably granted the title and it descended through many generations of men before being passed to your mother.  I suspect that the title will go extinct upon her death since such noble titles normally passed through the male lines.
