English, Lady, French, Dame Meaning Woman



Gentlemen:
The World is multi-lingual.  English and French Languages are some of the most popular languages in the present age.  Look at how the words compare:
English Language – Woman is a Lady and vice versa
French Language – a Lady is “Dame” –  it is please not complicated Sirs we did this intellectual exercise on Facebook today Thursday 19th October in quite a robust discussion.  https://www.collinsdictionary.com/dictionary/english-french/lady
Therefore:
When I sign as “Dame Carol Ajie” it means exactly Lady Carol Ajie and should I use the suffix “Esq” also my right many thanks to Hon Justice Onnoghen CJN, GCON for allowing female Barristers in Nigeria what US female Attorneys are allowed to, represents few law degree plus call to Bar as wo/men with legal knowledge every lawyer is. I do not want to use the prefix Lady cos “Dame” means the same as Lady and one of which is more common.  Kindly address this lady as “Dame Carol Ajie” or  
“Learned Dame Carol Ajie” most humbly, ITS NOT honorarium.
Thank you
Dame Carole
