Best Answer

He was Knighted by the Queen of England on Feb 24th 1998 who then honored him by giving him the title Sir.

Answer

Strictly speaking, "Sir" is the honorific associated with the specific award conferred on Elton John, which was Commander of the Most Excellent Order of the British Empire (CBE). There are other awards such as KBE and OBE which also confer the honorific "Sir".
