Sire is a respectful form of address for reigning kings in Europe. It has been used in Belgium, France, Italy, Germany, Sweden, Spain and the United Kingdom. Historically Sire had a wider usage. During the Middle Ages, Sire was generally used to address a superior, a person of importance or in a position of authority or the nobility in general. The words sire and sir, as well as the French (mon)sieur, share a common etymological origin, all ultimately being related to the Latin senior. See also
