Oh, right, ji. Diminutive, child, kind of like ko only generally masculine in deployment. As in:

Ryuuji (given name)
Ou-ji (prince)
and *drumroll*
Ji-touki, which is Lucrezia Noin's rank when we meet her.

Kind of like Second Lieutenant, I'm thinking. You know, Second, then First: Ji-touki, then Touki. Or possibly Touki-san, since the -san/-sama seems to act as a rank denoter (Zechs and Une, specifically).

No idea if this is germane since I've never seen the pilot titles spelled anywhere, but it does hang together.
