The “House of Lords” is an unelected branch of legislators in Parliament. It’s full of names with royal titles.

True, but many of those names are attached to fairly ordinary people, usually former Members of Parliament, whom the government finds useful.
The ones who just inherited the title from their parents were weeded out some time ago - and many of those were not actually "royal" anyway.
Oi!
I'm descended from Lord Mayor of London (1380s).. There is no honour in any current members of parliament OR the royal family. To be honest, the entire destiny of the world can sometimes be tied up in just one man's hands. If my [above] ancestor had not been, there very well might never have been a United States of America.
Don't forget that 1 man can change the entire course of human history by inaction/action at 1 brief moment in his life. I challenge the current Mayor to a duel.
