Apple's Jonathan Ive Lands Knighthood, Becomes Sir Ive

If you happened to have run into Apple‘s resident design guru, Jonathan Ive, this weekend at a New Year’s party, let’s hope you didn’t embarrass yourself by just calling him Mr. Ive. Instead, after this past Saturday, when he was award knighthood by Queen Elizabeth, you’d need to refer to him as Sir Ive. Or better still, Sir Ive, Knight Commander of the Most Excellent Order of the British Empire. This latest award by the British monarchy for his design work was preceded in 2006 when Ive was given the Commander of the British Empire.
