I was so busy pontificating I forgot to answer Marc's question (maybe
I should go into politics). OBN sounds ok to me. Order of British
Excellence was also suggested by a parliamentary select committee in
2004. Alternatively why not widen the membership of some of the
various other archaic Orders (Order of Merit, Order of St. George, the
Psychedelic Garter etc) which have been traditionally reserved for
small numbers of the aristocracy & military? People might complain
that "it isn't the same" - but that is the point.
