    I mean, I'm used to it! And honestly I think it's more funny than anything; it genuinely gives me a little chuckle every time it happens. Just, at the same time, I'm always thinking "damn...I wonder which guy he's referrin' to..." considering the vast majority of Seeker men out there adventuring should be a Tia.
    Not exactly the same problem but related, I've brought the issue of Sir Surname up on the Localization Forum a few times. It's especially jarring to be referred to as Sir Surname or Master Surname when in the same breath that NPC refers to another NPC as Master Forename or Lady Forename.

    Yeah, I've noticed that a few times too. It even happens when the NPC has a known surname, so can be easily addressed by it if needed.
