5.2.1 People named or titled Duke
5.2.1.1 Duke as title
Duke of ...:
Phrases that begin with the words "Duke of" are never names if they consist of only three words (and not all that are longer are necessarily names). These are rather titles, and such a phrase normally designates a single person only during that person's lifetime. (For instance, the person whom Shakespeare portrayed as being drowned in a barrel of wine was known in his day as the Duke of Clarence, but his name is George, Duke of Clarence, which distinguishes him from those who have held the title before and since.)
The purpose of this list is to identify people by name. Where a duke's proper name is not known, consulting Duke (and, regarding the British Isles, List of Dukedoms) may be helpful.
