Can I Have A Junior Maid Of Honour?

Question: My 10-year-old daughter is in my wedding as a junior bridesmaid, but I was wondering if there is such a thing as a junior maid of honour. My sister is my maid of honour.

Answer: by The Knot

A young girl in the role of honour attendant would be called a maiden of honour, and you can absolutely give your daughter that title while your sister remains maid of honour. It’s just like having two maids of honour, or a matron and maid of honour.
