Childe
 In the Middle Ages a childe or child [Old English Cild > Young Lord] was the son of a nobleman who had not yet attained knighthood or had not yet won his spurs. As a rank in chivalry it was used as a title e.g. Child Horn in King Horn as a male progressed through the positions of squire and then knight.The term is now obsolete but is still well known from poetry such as Robert Browning's Childe Roland to the Dark Tower Came and Lord Byron's Childe Harold's Pilgrimage.
