I've done some research and indeed Thado Thiri Min Hla Ye Khaung is a title of a prince .

Thado means valour
Thiri means splendour ( same as Siri in Thai and Sri in Sri Lanka )

Both the above are Burmanised Pali words . I believe Thado Min refers to a senior prince : one of 18 allowed during the last dynasty of Konbaung.


Min means king / ruler
Hla means fair/ beautiful
Ye means brave / daring


These are Burmese words.

Not sure about Khaung ( can you show me a scan so that I can see which intonation is used ? )
