What is an academic title for someone with honours degree?

There isn't a single universal academic title for someone with an honours degree. The appropriate title depends on the country, the specific degree, and the context.

In many countries, particularly in the UK and Commonwealth countries, someone with an honours degree might be addressed informally as "Mr./Ms./Mx. [Surname]" or formally as "Mr./Ms./Mx. [Surname], BA (Hons)" or "Mr./Ms./Mx. [Surname], BSc (Hons)," etc., replacing "BA" or "BSc" with the appropriate undergraduate degree abbreviation.

However, an honours degree itself *does not* automatically confer a professional title like "Doctor" (Dr.) or "Professor." Those titles are earned through postgraduate study (PhD or equivalent) or appointment to a professorial position, respectively.

Therefore, the best way to address someone with an honours degree is to use the standard Mr./Ms./Mx. [Surname] unless you know their professional title from other achievements. Including the degree abbreviation (e.g., BA (Hons)) is permissible in formal settings but might be considered excessive in casual contexts.
