Substantiv
baronet - A hereditary title, below a peerage and senior to most knighthoods, entitling the bearer to the titular prefix "Sir" for men or "Dame" for women which is used in conjunction with the holder's Christian name. It is inheritable, usually by the eldest son although a few baronetcies can also pass through the female line.

A baronet (traditional abbreviation Bart, modern abbreviation Bt) or the rare female equivalent, a baronetess (abbreviation Btss), is the holder of a hereditary baronetcy awarded by the British Crown. The practice of awarding baronetcies was originally introduced in England and Ireland by James I of England in 1611 in order to raise funds, and is now practically obsolete as hereditary honours are generally no longer recommended. A baronetcy is the only hereditary honour which is not a peerage; baronets are commoners.
