Any city gets what it admires, will pay for, and, ultimately, deserves…We want and deserve tin-can architecture in a tinhorn culture. And we will probably be judged not by the monuments we build but by those we have destroyed.--Ada Louise Huxtable, "Farewell to Penn Station", New York Times editorial, 30 October 1963

It is just a drawing! You are all hopeless flatterers, you know; I am humbled by it. But my thanks for the compliments regardless, and I shall nod my thanks once more to the brilliance of the artist who created such a masterpiece (for it really is).
As for the title... That, friends, is to be guessed.

Re: Her Grace.
Well what do you know, I was pretty close in my head (if that's close to how you look), though I had your hair at being slightly shorter, and the skin not so pale (though as it's you as a Vampire, I'll put it down to artistic licence )The Duchess of Zeon wrote:The Duchess of Valencia, Countess Hapsburg, Countess Szeged, Sophia von Hapsburg...

Um, Cuddles, you do realise that Gözde has 2 meanings in Turkish, the more modern interpretation and the older Ottoman meaning. Now the Modern one fits nicely, the older one casts a whole new light on you
Ah well, old or new, you'll always be Cuddles to me.

"Gözde" "means"
In the first two hits you should find one message that holds the modern meaning, and a link to its use in the Ottoman Empire, for the older meaning. Happy hunting.
