¿madmoiselle was a way to call to the noble women? or just madame was?

Question

In the ancient regime (french monarchy) the word madame was a formal word to address to a noble woman and even was forbiden in the revolution. But the word madmoiselle? had this word the same meaning? was madmoiselle used to address a noble woman in the ancient regime? is a nobility style? And what kind of nobles were called in this way?

is the same madmoiselle de orleans (when she was single) than madame de orleans (when she was married)?

Answer 1

Mademoiselle is a single girl , Madame is a married woman, both of good birth. Ma dame means my lady and ma demoiselle means my young girl. Both were used for noble women. During the French revolution, everyone was known as Citizen to show that all were equal. Using 'noble' titles was outlawed.

Answer 2

Mademoiselle stands for a young lady or a woman who never got married in France. It,s also used as a formal way to speak to a young lady or like irony when you want to make it sound like turning this person into a mo king stock
Nobles are called like this if it's the daughter of a noble or a wealthy rich merchant (UN Bourgeois)
But those nobles who has a title such as : Vicompte , Compte , Baron, Duc, prince, are called with the title or commonly Mon seigneur, Votre Altesse, ... well like it's gonna make their blood much blue and less red like the rest of humanity!!!

Answer 3

madmoiselle means miss and madame means misses and whenn they say the first on to royalty it was probably just saying they were young
