As with many significant historical and respected figures in Javanese culture, the name of a ruler is usually preceded by honorifics – in most cases the usage is of Sri Sultan before the name. In full titles the first Hamengkubuwono was titled:
"Ngarsadalem Sampeyandalem Hingkang Sinuhun Kangjeng Sultan Hamengkubuwono, Senopati Ing Ngalaga Ngabdurrahman Sayidin Panatagama Kalifatulah, Hingkang Jumeneng Kaping I".
Etymology
For some Javanese, the name has been interpreted as having the following components:
Hamangku: pleased to serve the people
Hamengku: protect the people in a just way
Hamengkoni: ready to take responsibility of a leader
Buwono: the Javanese universe[2]
Such an explanation does not necessarily coincide with strict etymology of the word.
