Lordly name? (5)
I believe the answer is:
title
'name?' is the definition.
(eg the name of a book)
I can't explain the remainder of the clue.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for title that I've seen before include "Proprietorship" , "inscription" , "Name - legal right" , "headline?" , "Deed showing legal right to a property" .)
