I have often wondered why they use the term in their title?

Doctor Swigmon Fwad, Kiwi

Esq.
I have often wondered why those gentlemen sufficiently up the social status spectrum from peon, yet just below that of a knight, should use the term in their title? It baffles me why such a detail is even relevant. I suppose it is some sort of ancient cavalier tradition.

In any event I will go forward with it. Perhaps you noticed the tradition addition to my name? If not, raise your gaze and check it out. This is no minor modification, tediously done with much consideration and not to be overlooked.

I am in no way a changed man. The additional title suffix merely defines me as an individualist, which I have always been. The multitudes and I are habitually seen marching to different drums.
Hence the change from Esq.

Esq. is a short form of Esquire, which I suppose is ideal for many, however I have always used a different shoe polish and responded accordingly.

Always wine and dine with a fine shine.

Swigmon Out,
Bye George
