Kind and courteous (8)

I believe the answer is:

gracious

(Other definitions for gracious that I've seen before include "Royal epithet" , "Gosh" , "polite expression of surprise" , "Affable, courteous, kindly" , "Courteous, kind, pleasant" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror and the King Feature Syndicate.
