Receiving a knighthood or a peerage is not the same as becoming a member of the royal family. You would not become royalty.
Royalty -- you have to be born to the right family or marry into it. And further, they don't adopt people like you or me.

No. Knights are just that, knights. The only persons considered royalty are the monarch, her children, and her sons' children. Children and paternal grandchildren of previous monarchs are also considered royalty.

A knight is heraldry or more commonly called nobility...not royalty. I'm an American and I knew that!

If it's an ordinary knighthood, it puts you about the bottom of the scale. You're not even nobility, let alone royalty.
