Untitled[edit]

The title of this article is not good, as there were 2 other people called James Douglas, Earl of Angus. How do we disambiguate? How about James Douglas, courtesy Earl of Angus? How do histories normally handle this? PatGallacher 19:08, 27 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I have had second thoughts, there is only 1 other, not sure this is worth bothering about. PatGallacher 19:25, 27 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
