It looks like "Mother of Dragons" is under Aliases.  Not sure how to distinguish between Aliases and Titles when she has so many other names...but oh well.  As far as I've noticed the only characters with multiple titles are royalty.

::: Technically not true KBF. Mace Tyrell has multiple titles, as does all the great houses, including the unofficial ones, like House Hightower and Manderly. I suspect also Redwyne and Farman have multiple titles as they are lords of both an island and a castle. Then there are people like Jeor Mormont, who has the former title, Lord of Bear Island and then Lord Commander of the Night's Watch. Others like the Kennings of Kayce and the Graftons of Gulltown would also have multiple titles. Even smaller lords like Godric Borrell has multiple titles. That's just a small list off the top of my head. [[User:The Pale Griffin|The Pale Griffin]] 19:19, 31 August 2011 (CDT)

The title variable is not working. - ASHaber

Since it's you, I assume that you know how to use the template. so it's probably todo with my recent change, the title moved under the portrait(the small text, probably too small). So this way we get, the Character name, Portrait and title grouped together and then everything else. see my sandbox to see what I am hoping to achieve, as usual I would love some feedback.
But just in case it's Title not title, in the old templates it's used either way. in the new ones, for consistency, I keep to the rule of everything in lowercase but the first latter of pages(which anyway would be automatically translated into uppercase), which is why I added the usage examples for quick copy pastes (btw, dont forget to sign your comments with ~~~~).

The problem with the way you've changed the titles is that sometimes a character (Daenerys for example) has many titles and it gets a little hard to read. It works well for characters with just one or two titles, but personally I think that it was easier to read and keep straight the titles with the old version of the template. It might help if they weren't centered, and I agree the text is too small. kissed.by.fire 00:23, 29 August 2011 (CDT)

So many titles and 'mother of dragons' isn't one of them?! anyway you are right multiple titles break this layout and should be presented as normal list, do we have many characters(not monarchs) with multiple titles? Mor 00:59, 29 August 2011 (CDT)
