I was working an intranet site for a posh estate agent recently, and they had all sorts of ludicrous edge cases in their database of upper- class landed gentry. We also came across a problem (that would be tough to address in hCard) that some people's given names aren't used in any form of address.

For example, the name might be "Charles Windsor", but the form of address is "His Royal Highness, The Prince of Wales".

I suppose the abbreviation pattern could theoretically be butchered for this purpose:

<abbr class="fn" title="Charles Windsor">His Royal Highness, The Prince of Wales</abbr>

But I'm inclined to think that a simpler solution would be to avoid the problem altogether by having a revolution (we don't have to necessarily shoot 'em; just strip them of their ludicrous titles).
