Baron is a title of honour, often hereditary, and ranks as one of the lower titles in the various nobiliary systems of Europe.
The female equivalent is baroness. ==Etymology== The word baron comes from the Old French baron, from a Late Latin baro man; servant, soldier, mercenary (so used in Salic Law; Alemannic Law has barus in the same sense).
