    I've always thought there should be some special term for a pawn on the 7th rank...
    If it's your opponent's pawn then I can think of a few names to give it, none of them suitable for polite company.

    I like Princess better.
    I recently finished a game vs safa rahimi where I under-promoted to a Bishop. So a pawn on the 7th isn't always going to be a Queen.

    In a world where gender neutrality has gained import, I propose that the name "Queen" contains a "double entendre" and therefore the pawn in question becomes: "The Beard". 🙂
    Given the ridiculousness of the question, this ridiculous answer is the only right one!

    Incorrect. There is White's seventh rank and there is Black's seventh rank, both of which is one square from being promoted.

    Algebraic notation is just a notation. It's stupid to call Black's seventh rank the second rank.
