Wouldn't Caliph be more appropriate?

Well, recent events over the last few decades have suggested that the line is blurred - and given Ayatollah somewhat negative connotations in the west. I'd go for Mufti, or consider an invented title instead.

Our Western misconceptions should be no reason not to ascribe a neutral term from another culture to a Birthright culture. Ayatu-llah means sign of God, so why not use Ayatu'avani or Ayatavani, which would mean sign of avani.
