Actually primate is the correct word... It means 'chief bishop or archbishop of a province'...

Origin

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Primate_(bishop)

Primate (pronounced /ˈpraɪˌmeɪt/) is a title or rank bestowed on some bishops in certain Christian churches. Depending on the particular tradition, it can denote either jurisdictional authority (title of authority) or ceremonial precedence (title of honour).
In many countries, the Primate is based in a city other than the capital. This often reflects historical circumstances, with the Primate located in what had been the capital when the country first became Christianized, and with such geographical disparity helping to preserve the Church's autonomy from the secular government.

That is an actual title or rank in the Anglican Church (Church of England).

I know it was a title but I thought people hear would find it funny.
