I looked things up a while back, and Abbess is actually the highest rank for a woman (that is, specifically female) in the Catholic Church. There are a few women who have been ordained as bishops; the more-or-less nickname "womanbishop" (an extension of the movement name Roman Catholic Womenpriests, or RCWP) would be a bit awkward, I think.

And just musing here, but I may go ahead and make pieces for Babe and Nessie -- though probably quad-sized.
