Proposal: Adding βLadyβ to lead, infobox, and early life section

[td][/td] [td]Elizabeth Bowes-Lyon was styled Lady Elizabeth from birth as the daughter of an earl, and this name was consistently used in public and historical contexts prior to her marriage. Per [[MOS:HON]], courtesy titles such as Lady may be used in the lead and infobox if the person is widely known by that title and it is not misleading. The article on her weddingβ[[Wedding of Prince Albert and Lady Elizabeth Bowes-Lyon]]βuses Lady Elizabeth Bowes-Lyon throughout, including in the title, reinforcing recognisable usage. Additionally, Glamis Castle, her ancestral home, refers to her as Lady Elizabeth Bowes Lyon in its official biography https://www.glamis-castle.co.uk/castle-gardens/about-glamis-castle/the-queen-mother/ Would it be appropriate to reflect this styling in the lead (birth clause), infobox (birth name), and early life section to align with MOS and similar aristocratic biographies?
