Random information on the term “Dubbed”:
The accolade (also known as dubbing or adoubement) (Latin: benedictio militis) was the central act in the rite of passage ceremonies conferring knighthood in the Middle Ages.
The term accolade entered English by 1591, when Thomas Lodge used it in a historical romance about Robert the Devil: “He had with all solemnitie the accolade, and was commanded to kneele downe to receiue the order of Knighthoode.” It derives from the Middle French accolee, meaning an embrace or the bestowal of knighthood thereby, which in turn descends from the Latin collum, meaning “neck”.
Accolade ceremonies have taken a variety of forms, including the tapping of the flat side of a knighting sword on the shoulders of a candidate (who is himself sometimes referred to as an accolade during the ceremony) or an embrace about the neck.[citation needed]
The earliest reference to the knighting as a formal ceremony in Germany is in the Annals of Aachen under the year 1184, when the Emperor Frederick I’s sons, Henry VI and Frederick VI, “were made knights” (facti sunt milites).
