I've posted a gallery of rank insignias for House Atreides based on screengrabs and pictures of props I've been able to find. Unfortunatly, no actual rank names are given in the movie or script and the table is clearly far from complete.
Anyone with infos (movie related, not from the book) feel free to share or add yourself directly.

Good work, and good catch with the harvester insignia.
I'm reminded of [url]http://dunese.blogspot.com/2012/08/atreides-soldiers.html[/url] and specifically [url]http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-K27KeOs77KM/UDrbbMsjcnI/AAAAAAAAA0w/9Kyg9DIvE8E/s1600/ATREIDES_RankInsignia.jpg[/url].
It's been a while since I've read the books, so I don't recall whether convention ranks exist (I think they do, but I know the prequels came up with a different set of ranks) but I could have sworn Halleck's actual rank was 'warmaster' while Duncan Idaho's title was swordmaster.
That being said, I think the wiki refers to both as titles.
