Talk:Aga Khan III

Untitled

The weighing up in gold of Aga Khan III in Bombay would be an interesting (if admittedly somewhat trivial) addition lacking in this article. MadMaxDog 11:49, 18 February 2007 (UTC)

his mother

In Aga Khan II Muhammad Shah's mother is described as the third wife of Aga Khan II, not the second. I don't know which one is right. Jvv62 16:25, 18 June 2007 (UTC)

Name

"Sir Sultan Mahomed Shah, Aga Khan III" is all in bold. Compare Aga Khan IV:

Shah Karim al-Husayni (Template:Langx; born 13 December 1936), known by the religious title Mawlānā Hazar Imam by his Ismaili followers and elsewhere as Aga Khan IV

How to parse the string of boldtext?

• Sir — honorific for British knighthood?
• Sultan — Sultan (name)? Sultan (title)?
• Mahomed — given name ?
• Shah — Shah (surname)? Shah (title)?
• Aga Khan — title for the office of Qasimi Imām
• III — ordinal as Aga Khan, not as Qasimi Imām or as Mahomed

Perhaps Indian name has relevant information re given name, surname, patronymic, etc. jnestorius^(talk) 22:09, 11 August 2023 (UTC)

He was taught golf by my great grandfather Ben Sayers in North Berwick, and had a permanent locker containing his clubs in the pro's shop which was still there in the 1960s. 51.6.80.38 (talk) 08:22, 5 February 2025 (UTC)
