baron Haden-Guest
I assume the 2nd, 3rd and 4th Barons were brothers.

Is it normal for a title to pass to siblings in this way? Bastie 03:34, 31 August 2005 (UTC)
- It is if none of them have kids. What I want to know is, how did they come upon the awful name "Haden Haden-Guest"? --Jfruh 14:19, 30 November 2005 (UTC)

Question
Since Nicholas Haden-Guest (aka Nicholas Guest), the heir-presumptive to the Haden-Guest barony is American by birth and citizenship, does he still carry 'The Honorable? I think perhaps not.
Christopher Guest isn't a Baron
Surely Christopher Guest is not a Baron, his ancestor Christopher William Graham Guest, with who the title originated, was only a Life peer, and NOT a hereditary peer. As life peerages can't be inherited the title became extinct on 25 September 1984, when Christopher William Graham Guest died. Alanleonard (talk) 22:39, 27 June 2009 (UTC)
- (Reply copied from Jamie Lee Curtis) :I am afraid you have your Baron Guests confused. Christopher Guest is the 5th Baron Haden-Guest of Saling, a heriditory peer and is not related to life peer and judge Baron Guest. Christopher's baronetcy originated with Leslie Haden-Guest, 1st Baron Haden-Guest and the current incumbant actually took his seat in the House of Lords for a short period of time until the major rehaul of the House. A photograph of him and Baroness Guest (Jamie Lee Curtis) in their ermine robes at his maiden appearance was published in the British broadsheets at the time. 21st CENTURY GREENSTUFF 00:12, 28 June 2009 (UTC)
'Created' in 1950?
The male line family tree shows the first Baron as having been born in 1877 yet the article claims the title was 'created' in 1950. There are many other problems stemming from this. Pootle (talk) 16:55, 12 May 2022 (UTC)
- It just means that the first baron was 73 when he was created a peer. What seems to be the problem?

- That's how the British say it: titles are "created." The people they're created for were themselves generally created (i.e. born) some years before. They might also say so-and-so was "created Baron Haden-Guest" in 1950, though I don't know if that's a current usage having only seen it in old books. Furrycat66 (talk) 20:35, 14 August 2022 (UTC)
