In a footnote on p. 226 of The Making of the Poets: Byron and Shelley in their Time, Ian Gilmour states that after Lord Dudley became Lord Dudley and Ward, his servants at times overheard him holding conversations with himself in two distinct voices. Personally, I can think of no better use for a double helping of aristocracy.
