No,she was born untitled since her family,although very old,didn't have any official title...
When her father invented all those titles one of the members of the Croatian Noble society said:"Isn't it being a Doimi di DeLupis just enough?"That means that this family is very old and respected in this area...
There are many controversies around the titles of the Doimi de Frankopan family. I have made some research to clarify the situation and my conclusion is that although their titles are a bit pretentious and maybe not 100 per cent genuine their use is defensible.
The Doimi and the Frankopan families are very likely from the same stock. The 2 lines became seperated in the 13th century, but by that time the family already had the title of count. According to Hungarian-Croatian noblity law all family members hold the title, so Paola and her father too are entitled to the title of Count.
The princely title is somewhat more vague. The Latin word for Count is
Comes which usually is translated to Italian as
Conte, to Croatian as
grof, to Hungarain as
gróf and German as
Graf. However the great medieval Dalmatian and Croatian families were referred in Croatian and sometimes even in Latin texts as
Knez, which in contemporary Croatian means certainly Prince, but in the early middle ages it was used in the meaning of Italian
Conte, as
grof was a later borrowing from German Graf. Basically this uncertaintly is the base of their princely title.
The use of Frankopan surname is as if the Hanover dynasty returned today to the Este or Welf surname, or if teh Windsor family called themselves Wettin. Anachronistic, but not without base.
What is completely pretentious and genealogically not defensible is the Subic and Zrinski surname, because these families mixed with the Frankopan family only after the separation of the Doimi branch.
