Whether you're a doctor (... , MD) or a doctor (... , PhD), an accountant (... , CPA) or a gemologist (... , GG) there are professional designations you may use to label yourself.
Then there are the prizes and achievements earned/rewarded such a Nobel Peace Prize winner or Olympic Gold Medalist or Sole Survivor.
What about titles like President or Senator or Professor?
But my personal favorites are the ones that come with no extra letters. Or fanfare. Or headlines. Mother and Father. Friend. Soldier. American. Confidant. Neighbor. Mentor. And maybe we should add a propriate descriptors after a person's name that describes them like Mary Smith: Trustworthy, quilter, genealogist or Joe Brown: Storyteller, Civil War re-enactor, chef.
Because what you have filled in behind your name is all the really good stuff, isn't it??
