Baron is a title of honour, often hereditary, and ranks as one of the lower titles in the various nobiliary systems of Europe.
A distinction needs to be made between nobility and peerage. In the British system, a peer is the holder of the title, while a noble is a member of a family headed by a peer. In the UK, such family members, while noble, are still technically common, which is not necessarily the case elsewhere.
