In LIU (Jordanian SL), there seems to be a single root sign for royalty:

There is also the obvious two-handed version. When used by itself it
means "The King." When I was there that would have been King Hussein; I
assume it is now used to refer to Abdullah II. When combined with a
following name sign, it can mean "Queen/prince/princess/etc." depending
on the context.

Cheers,

Dan.
