honorary title

An honorary title is a distinction awarded to individuals in recognition of their achievements or contributions, often without the requirement of fulfilling the typical criteria associated with that title. These titles can be conferred by organizations, institutions, or governments as a way to honor someone for their work, character, or impact on society. Recipients typically do not gain official responsibilities or privileges associated with the title but receive it as a mark of respect and appreciation. Examples include honorary degrees, titles like "Honorary Mayor," or awards acknowledging one's service or accomplishments in a specific field.
