In my US experience, even not filling in a title doesn't mean you won't get a title anyway. I mean to say, if I sign up with my wallet name (which ends in a million extraneous letters for an "el" sound), I get "Miss", whereas if I sign up with my future wallet name (name changes are expensive), I get "Mr." and this isn't universal. like. if I'm like, hey, automated newsletter or thing where I am providing my shipping address, then I get as-entered. (and uuuuuusually title isn't required.) but if it's an alumni thing, I get titled. if it's a religious place, I get titled. (if it's my own MOTHER, i get titled. srsly mail will be delivered if you drop the title, and you REALLY don't have to put a title when you make a check out to me; if anything, that confuses people. but she's busy Proving A Point.)

the "why" on this is a big mystery to me!
