Earl or duke, eg (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

nobleman

This clue is a double definition.

'earl' is the first definition.
(thesaurus)

'duke eg' is the second definition.
(duke is a kind of nobleman)

(Other definitions for nobleman that I've seen before include "Member of the aristocracy" , "count, perhaps" , "Earl, say" , "High-ranking male" , "I have a title" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
