Perhaps you could post another, clearer message? I just don't know what you mean.
Gnaedige Frau is Dear Madam - the way you start a formal letter to a woman. She could be superior, inferior or Frau Average.

You wouldn't start a letter to a woman with "gnädige Frau" in Germany nowadays. It's VERY old fashioned!

Right! Gnädige Frau definitely isn't a name at all!
