    Yeah, if you wanted something a bit more legit, https://www.highlandtitles.com/ offers to become a „Lord/Lady of the Glen“™️. And they are open about it being just for fun. They state:

    **You will be addressed by your choice of Laird, Lord or Lady of the Glen by us and within our 300,000+ strong community. Please note you cannot buy a noble title. This is for enjoyment purposes only. *You obtain a personal right to a souvenir plot of land. Highland Titles remains as the registered landowner and manages the land on your behalf.

    But you get a nice printout and some trinkets as well…

      I got two of those for my Birthday years ago. In that year I did a roadtrip with friends around Scotland and visited “my” small plot of land and hugged “my” tree. It was a fun present to get my friends to call me lord the whole trip.

      Also, as far as I remember it was a nature reserve too. and because it was divided into thousands of tiny plots it would be near impossible to buy the whole land and destroy the forest.
