Areus of Sparta<\/b> (Barony of Atenveldt): NEW DEVICE CHANGE<\/p>\n

Sable, a trident head Or and a bordure parted bordurewise wavy gules and argent.<\/i><\/p>\n

<\/a>The client’s name change submission appears on the 20 June 2016 Atenveldt Letter of Intent. A division of a bordure in a similar fashion is seen in the registered armory of Akastos Theodorou, Or, a calamarie inverted sable and a bordure parted bordurewise indented argent and sable<\/i>. (https:\/\/oscar.sca.org\/index.php?action=145&id=33514)<\/p>\n

This takes the place of a badge resubmission for Phelan \u00d3 Coile\u00e1in, <\/b>Sable, a cross alis\u00e9e gules fimbriated argent.<\/i> It was returned by Laurel, September 2009, for multiple conflicts, including that for the Knights Templar.<\/p>\n

If registered, please retain his current device as a badge, <\/i>Azure, a horseshoe inverted within a bordure Or.<\/i><\/p>\n

Fenrich der St<\/b>\u00fc<\/b>rmer Hahn<\/b> (Tir Ysgithr): NEW NAME and DEVICE<\/p>\n

Or, a dunghill cock rising contourny vert maintaining a spear bendwise sinister, a bordure reguly sable.<\/i><\/p>\n

The name is German. He has been known as Fenris for years and wishes something more registerable. Meynhardt Fenrich Ophuss has a christening date of 5 August 1645 in Evangelisch, Kamen, Westfalen, Prussia; his father name was <\/i>Fenrich<\/b><\/i>Ophuss<\/i> (https:\/\/familysearch.org\/ark:\/61903\/1:1:N63L-38W<\/a>, Batch J95158-1<\/a>). der St<\/i>\u00fc<\/i>rmer Hahn<\/i> is said to mean \u201cthe fighting rooster\/cock,\u201d although http:\/\/www.collinsdictionary.com<\/a>\/translator<\/a> shows st<\/i>\u00fc<\/i>rmer<\/i> as \u201cone who is on (a labor) strike,\u201d rather than just pugilistic. Nevertheless, St<\/i>\u00fc<\/i>rmer<\/i> is found as a German surname for Hans Wilhelm St\u00fcrmer with a christening datd 6 November 1603 in Barf\u00fc\u00dfer Klosterkirche, Heidelberg, Baden, Germany (https:\/\/familysearch.org\/search\/record\/results?count=20&query=%2Bsurname%3ASt%C3%BCrmer~%20%2Bbirth_place%3AGermany~%20%2Bbirth_year%3A1400-1650<\/a>~, Batch C93414-1<\/a>); and Hahn<\/i> is found as a German surname for Ludwig Hahn with a christening date 18 July 1581 in Stuttgart, Wurttemberg, Germany (https:\/\/familysearch.org\/search\/record\/results?count=20&query=%2Bsurname%3AHahn~%20%2Bbirth_place%3AGermany~%20%2Bbirth_year%3A1400-1650<\/a>~, Batch C91613-1<\/a> ). Appendix A in SENA says double bynames are rare, so this might be possible if a \u201csimple\u201d descriptive byname like \u201cthe fighting cock\u201d (minus der)<\/i> is not permitted. The client desires a male name and is most interested in meaning (\u201cthe fighting rooster\u201d), sound (as similar to Fenris as possible) and language\/culture (German, 1480-1600).<\/p>\n

Granite Mountain, Barony of<\/b>: NEW ORDER NAME, Order of the Emerald Heart of Granite Mountain<\/i> and NEW BADGE<\/p>\n

Per fess indented vert and sable, in chief a bezant charged with a heart vert, a bordure erminois.<\/i><\/p>\n

The territorial name was registered November 2014.<\/p>\n

Emerald<\/i> refers to a precious stone, the color of that gemstone and to a brilliant color like that of the stone (in 1598, spelled as emerold, according to the COED). Heart,<\/i> in the COED, dates the meaning as “a figure or representation of the human heart; esp. a conventionalized symmetrical figure formed of two similar curves meeting in a point at one end and a cusp at the other. Also, an object, as a jewel or ornament, in the shape of a heart” to 1463: “The seid broche herte of gold to be hange, naylyd, and festnyd vpon the shryne”. The modern spelling heart is used for a stylized figure in 1529 (referring to a playing card). It is also a charge seen in Parker (http:\/\/www7b.biglobe.ne.jp\/~bprince\/hr\/parker\/jpglossh.htm#Heart<\/a>).<\/p>\n

Granite Mountain, Barony of<\/b>: NEW ORDER NAME, Order of the Grace of Granite Mountain<\/i><\/p>\n

The territorial name was registered November 2014.<\/p>\n

The Middle English Dictionary, s.n. grace,<\/i> includes quotes using that specific form to mean \u201cgoodwill, kindness, favor, love,\u201d and is dated to multiple years c. 1300-c.1500 (http:\/\/quod.lib.umich.edu\/cgi\/m\/mec\/med-idx?type=id&id=MED19175<\/a>). Grace is a noun and not an object which is normally used in the construction of Saint + attribute. However, in this case, it is used to demonstrate by example the recipient’s virtue. The addition of the locative avoids conflict with other Order names. (The definite article the <\/i>might be best deleted to follow the pattern of orders named after abstract qualities.)<\/p>\n

This is to be associated with the Barony’s registered badge, Per fess indented vert and sable, a vol Or and a bordure erminois.<\/i>, registered April 2015.<\/p>\n

Granite Mountain, Barony of<\/b>: NEW HERALDIC TITLE, Erminois Pursuivant<\/i><\/p>\n

The territorial name was registered November 2014.<\/p>\n

A Barony is entitled to have titled pursuivant. Parker cites erminois<\/i> as an heraldic fur, Or with sable spots (pp. 234-5). It appears in most of the Barony’s armory.<\/p>\n

Granite Mountain, Barony of<\/b>: NEW BADGE<\/p>\n

Per fess indented vert and sable, in base an ermine spot Or, a bordure erminois.<\/i><\/p>\n

The territorial name was registered November 2014.<\/p>\n

This is intended as a populace badge.<\/p>\n

Granite Mountain, Barony of<\/b>: NEW BADGE<\/p>\n

Per fess indented vert and sable, in chief an ermine statant contourny regardant ermine, a bordure erminois.<\/i><\/p>\n

The territorial name was registered November 2014.<\/p>\n

<\/a>Granite Mountain, Barony of<\/b>: BADGE RESUBMISSION for the Order of Peregrine of Granite Mountain<\/i><\/p>\n

Per fess indented vert and sable,an arrow and bow crossed in saltire Or, a bordure erminois.<\/i><\/p>\n

The Order name was registered April 2015.<\/p>\n

The original submission, Per fess indented vert and sable, a falcon rising Or and a bordure erminois<\/i>., was returned by Laurel April 2015 for conflict;<\/p>\n

this is a redesign. We feel that the primary charges are thin enough so as not to obscure the complex line of division.<\/p>\n

Granite Mountain, Barony of<\/b>: NEW BADGE<\/p>\n

Sable, an ermine spot Or, a bordure erminois.<\/i><\/p>\n

The territorial name was registered November 2014.<\/p>\n

This is intended as a badge for the fighters in the Barony. We believe it is clear of the device registered to Francesca da Trani, Sable, an ermine spot and an orle Or.<\/i>; one DC for the orle vs. bordure, one DC for Or vs. erminois.<\/p>\n

Ignacio Diaz de Castile <\/b>(Sundragon): DEVICE RESUBMISSION from Laurel, August 2016: Pean, on a tyger rampant Or a crescent gules, a bordure embattled Or crusilly Santiago gules.<\/i><\/p>\n

The name was registered August 2016.
\nThis device was returned August 2016 for a redraw \u201cfor violating SENA A2C2 which states “Elements must be drawn to be identifiable.” Commenters had trouble identifying the gules charges on the bordure. On resubmission, please advise the submitter to draw fewer and larger ermine spots.\u201d This has been redone.
\nThe submitter has permission to conflict with the device of Adam Carlos Diaz de Castile: Pean, a tyger rampant within a bordure embattled Or charged with six crosses of Santiago gules.<\/i><\/p>\n

Johnathan Crusadene Whitewolf <\/b>(BA): NEW ALTERNATE NAME, Eber Hauer<\/i>, and NEW BADGE<\/p>\n

Per bend raguly Or and argent, a double-headed eagle sable and a boar’s tusk gules.<\/i><\/p>\n

The client’s primary name was registered October 2015 (transferred from his deceased father).<\/p>\n

I am assuming that the new alternate name is for a fighting unit, not a personal name, as documentation lists it as such. However, I think that as a unit, it might need a group designation.<\/p>\n

The name is German, Eber Hauer <\/i>meaning \u201cboar tusks\u201d (http:\/\/www.collinsdictionary.com\/translator<\/a>), in reference to a fighting unit that hails primarily from the Barony of Tir Ysgithr, which has a boar head on its armory.<\/p>\n

The use of a tooth\/tusk is limited because it is usually unrecognizable when used by itself (one sees them as \u201cteeth\u201d in skulls, the heads of boars, the heads of predators and monsters). The Pictorial Dictionary notes that a fang is visually equivalent to a drinking horn, and it has been disallowed for Society heraldry, due to its lack of ready identifiability. It does note that a tusk, an elephant\u2019s tooth, couped and with point to chief by default, is still permitted (http:\/\/mistholme.com\/?s=tooth<\/a>). The client might consider such a tusk, or even wolf’s teeth, as his arms feature a wolf.<\/p>\n

Maria of Venice <\/b>(TY): NEW NAME CHANGE<\/p>\n

The client’s previous name change (from the registered Mariyah al-Madiniyah <\/i>to Natasiia Novgorodova<\/i>, currently in the 20 September 2016 Atenveldt Letter of Intent) has been asked to be withdrawn by the client. She asks that this be considered her name change.<\/p>\n

Maria<\/i> is a female given name dated to 1186, found in \u201cFeminine Given Names in A Dictionary of English Surnames,\u201d Talan Gwynek, https:\/\/www.s-gabriel.org\/names\/talan\/reaney\/reaney.cgi?Mary. The client would like to have the locative rendered into Italian (da <\/i>Venezia<\/i>, I think), Venetian (perhap da Venesia<\/i>), or even into Latin, if that would be possible, a form as early in period as could be done.<\/p>\n

Mathias Steinson<\/b> (TY): NEW NAME and DEVICE<\/p>\n

Quarterly sable and azure, a butterfly bendwise sinister argent.<\/i><\/p>\n

Mathias<\/i> is a German male given name dated to 1332, 1374 and 1388 in \u201c”Medieval German Given Names from Silesia Men’s Names” Talan Gwynek (http:\/\/www.s-gabriel.org\/names\/talan\/bahlow\/bahlowMasc.html<\/a>). Steinson<\/i> is a nod to his legal surname, Stinson. It appears that there are a number of period German surnames Stein<\/i>, but none like Steinson. On the other hand, there is an Old Norse masculine name Steinn<\/i> (\u201cViking Names found in Landn\u00e1mab\u00f3k,\u201d<\/i> Aryanhwy merch Catmael, http:\/\/www.ellipsis.cx\/~liana\/names\/norse\/landnamabok.html<\/a>), which would give rise to the patronymic Steinsson<\/i> (\u201cA Simple Guide to Creating Old Norse Names,\u201d Aryanhwy merch Catmael, http:\/\/www.ellipsis.cx\/~liana\/names\/norse\/sg-viking.html<\/a>). Appendix C in SENA allow the mixing of German and Scandanavian name elements. The client desires a male name and cases most about having a German or Norse\/Viking name.<\/p>\n

M<\/b>\u00fa<\/b>sa-Sunnifa<\/b> (Mons Tonitrus): NEW NAME and NEW DEVICE<\/p>\n

Azure, in bend three estoiles between two bendlets Or, all between two open books argent.<\/i><\/p>\n

The name is Old Norse, and both elements are found in \u201cThe Old Norse Name.\u201d Sunnifa<\/i> is a female given name, p. 15, and M<\/i>\u00fa<\/i>sa-,<\/i> \u201cMouse-,\u201d is a prepended byname, p. 26. The client desires a female name and it most interested in the language\/culture of the name. She will not accept Major changes to the name.<\/p>\n

Natasiia Novgorodova<\/b> (Tir Ygithr): WITHDRAWAL OF NEW NAME CHANGE<\/p>\n

This name change, from the registered Mariyah al-Madiniyah,<\/i> appears in the 20 September 2016 Atenveldt Letter of Intent. The client has asked that it be withdrawn from consideration.<\/p>\n

Maria<\/i> is a female given name dated to 1186 in \u201cFeminine Given Names in A Dictionary of English Surnames: <\/i>Mary,\u201d Talan Gwynek, https:\/\/www.s-gabriel.org\/names\/talan\/reaney\/reaney.cgi?Mary<\/a>. The client would like the locative rendered into Italian (da Venecia<\/i>, I think), Venetian (da V<\/i>enesia<\/i>, maybe), or a form like Latin or as early in period as possible. The area was inhabited by the Veneti people as early as 10th<\/sup> C BCE.(https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Venice#Origins).<\/p>\n

Nefratiri Ani<\/b> (Granholme): NEW BADGE<\/p>\n

(Fieldless) A triskelion of human legs azure.<\/i><\/p>\n

The name was registered March 1984.<\/p>\n

Valdis Skarpa<\/b> (BoA): NEW DEVICE<\/p>\n

Gules, a dragon couchant and on a chief argent three open books sable.<\/i><\/p>\n

The name was registered July 2012.<\/p>\n

Viktoria of York<\/b> (Twin Moons): DEVICE RESUBMISSION from Laurel, July 2012<\/p>\n

Quarterly purpure and argent, in bend two dragonflies argent, and in bend sinister two crosses purpure.<\/i><\/p>\n

The name was registered July 2012.<\/p>\n

The original submission, Per saltire purpure and argent, a dragonfly and a rose argent barbed vert seeded gules.<\/i>, was returned by Laurel July 2012 for presumption, for combining the byname of York with armory containing a white rose. This is a violation of section XI.2 of the Rules for Submissions, and section A6E of the Standards for Evaluation, both of which discuss disallowed charge and name combinations. This is a complete redesign.<\/p>\n

This appears to be in violation of SENA’s prohibition of marshalling, A.6. Armory Presumption F.2.c. Multiple Types of Primary Charges<\/strong>: When different sections of the field contain different types of charges, it creates the appearance of marshalling.<\/p>\n

I have several questions that might help in resolving this issue:<\/p>\n

Can this type of cross (really, an ordinary rather than a specific cross), be used in a divided field?<\/p>\n

Is Per saltire purpure and argent, in pale two dragonflies and in fess two crosses counterchanged<\/i>., permitted and clear of conflict?<\/p>\n

Is Per saltire argent and purpure, in pale two crosses and in fess two dragonflies counterchnaged.<\/i>, permitted and clear of conflict?<\/p>\n

The following submissions appear in the October Letter of Intent:<\/b><\/i><\/p>\n

Commentary was provided by Coblaith Muimnech and Michael Gerard Curtememoire.<\/p>\n

Alexandra Starling of Ravenspurn<\/b> (Windale): DEVICE RESUBMISSION from Laurel, July 2016: Purpure, a chevron inverted of chain conjoined at the point to a lighthouse Or flammant gules. 
\n<\/i>The name was registered July 2016.
\nThe original submission was returned \u201cfor having the chevron of chain issuing far too high on the field. Per long standing precedent, it should issue from the sides of the field. On redesign, please keep in mind that some commenters had some trouble identifying the lighthouse, mostly due to the low contrast of the flames on the field.\u201d The client has redrawn and adjusted the chain to be more in keeping with the placement of a chevron inverted.<\/p>\n

Cirina Badartai<\/b> (Twin Moons): NEW NAME CHANGE and NEW DEVICE: Per saltire purpure and argent, in fess two feathers sable and a demi-sun issuant from base Or.<\/i><\/p>\n

Magnus Ulfsson<\/b> (Twin Moons): NEW NAME and DEVICE: Or, a boar statant sable and one a chief rayonny gules a tau-rho Or.<\/i><\/p>\n

To resolve the conflict with the other Magnus Ulfson, he has chosen the ON byname inn hugpr\u00fa\u00f0i<\/i> \u201cstout-hearted,\u201d found in \u201cViking Bynames found in the Landn\u00e1mab\u00f3k,\u201d<\/i> Aryanhwy merch Catmael (http:\/\/www.ellipsis.cx\/~liana\/names\/norse\/vikbynames.html).<\/p>\n

Michael Gerard Curtememoire comments further: The Bible History Daily<\/i> site–which looks to be itself a wholly reliable source–lists and links to exactly one source at its parent site: “The Staurogram: Earliest Depiction of Jesus’ Crucifixion” in the March\/April 2013 issue of Biblical Archaeology Review<\/i>, showing the same papyrus. The body of that article is unfortunately behind a membership wall, but a discussion without photographs by the same author, arguing that the tau-rho cross or staurogram is earlier than the 4th or 5th century based on the evidence of early papyri is available athttps:\/\/www.era.lib.ed.ac.uk\/bitstream\/handle\/1842\/1204\/staurogram%20chapter-%20Manuscripts%20volume a.pdf;sequence=1<\/a>. Since we know medieval scholars saw ancient papryi, this is a small step toward the target Coblaith Muimnech correctly sets, “a period form of a symbol used in the Middle Ages or Renaissance”. 
\nMore reliably known to medieval people are ancient coins. https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Staurogram<\/a> shows a 6th century solidus with a staurogram-topped staff. More ancient-looking copies of that coin are found elsewhere on the Net, e.g. the first image below from http:\/\/www.icollector.com\/Byzantine-Emp-Anastasius-I-Solidus-498-518_i8604902<\/a> which is conveniently more readable than Wikipedia’s. A tau-rho cross much closer to the submission’s is found on a coin of the 4th-c. Arcadius, the second image here, fromhttps:\/\/www.vcoins.com\/en\/stores\/beast_coins\/22\/product\/arcadius_ae4__salvs_reipvblicae\/52031\/Defaul t.aspx<\/a> 
\nMy third image shows another one on a staff, perhaps representing a labarum, with the rho curled as in the submission, on an ancient coin otherwise unidentified at http:\/\/www.rhedesium.com\/the-sign-of-christ-v-the-name-of-christ–the-vision-of-constantine.html<\/a>. To quickly find it and similar images there, page-search for various Greek coins<\/i>. (I’m sure a specialist numismatist could get a better source than this, but Google image search is convinced this is Victoria’s 1845 gold sovereign.) 
\nThe rho was also commonly curled in contemporary chi-rhos (a different but often confused monogram of Christ), like three of Magnentius’s coins at https:\/\/www.forumancientcoins.com\/numiswiki\/view.asp?key=Chrismon<\/a> (one is the fourth image here). More relevantly, the staurogram is combined with the chi-rho in an 11th century sculpture in the St-Denis St- Nicholas church, Trameza\u00efgues, France, shown below as my fifth image from a stock-photo site,http:\/\/www.alamy.com\/stock-photo-sculpted-chi-rho-monogram-11th-century-in-st-nicholass-church-trame zagues-60381472.html<\/a>, seen also athttps:\/\/commons.wikimedia.org\/wiki\/File:Trameza%C3%AFgues_%C3%A9glise_chrisme.JPG<\/a> with a better caption. 
\nA tau-rho cross combined with alpha and omega is also found in the catacombs according tohttps:\/\/it.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Staurogramma<\/a>, and in the baptistery of the 4th-c. church of San Giovanni in Fonte, seen athttp:\/\/ioamocastiglione.blogspot.com\/2013\/12\/storia-della-raffigurazione-della-croce.html<\/a> (page-search for battistero<\/i>). 
\nGiven all this bracketing, I am morally certain that exactly the charge here can either be found in period or at minimum could have been created in period. Moreover, I’ve seen it modernly in Roman Catholic use, often looking like the image (not shown here) at https:\/\/de.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Staurogramm<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Many thanks to Michael for his exhaustive investigation!<\/i><\/p>\n

Riane Goch<\/b> (Tir Ysgithr): NEW DEVICE CHANGE: Gules, on a plate a dragon’s head erased sable impaled on a sword gules.<\/i><\/p>\n

The following submissions were registered by the SCA College of Arms, July 2016:<\/b><\/i><\/p>\n

Alexandra Starling of Ravenspurn.<\/b> Name. 
\nRavenspurn<\/i> is a lingua Anglica form of the place name found as Ravenser Spurne<\/i>, Raven(e)ser(e)<\/i>, and other forms found in period in Watts. The 1597 edition of Shakespeare’s Richard II uses the form Rauen spurgh<\/i>(http:\/\/internetshakespeare.uvic.ca\/Library\/Texts\/search.html?e=R2_Q1&w=s&w=sd&w=marg&q=rauen). If the submitter prefers one of the attested forms, she can submit a request for reconsideration.<\/p>\n

\n
<\/a><\/a><\/a><\/a>Callum of Skye. <\/b>Name and device. Azure, on a bend between a sheaf of arrows inverted and a thistle Or, three fleurs-de-lys azure.
\n<\/i>The submitter requested authenticity for a 12th to 16th century Scottish name. The given name Callum<\/i> was documented as a Scots name from 1643, and was also documented in commentary to the late 16th century. The place name Skye<\/i> was also found in a map from 1573. Although both elements are found in the 16th century, bynames tended to be inherited at this time rather than literal. Therefore, this name as a whole is not as likely in the 16th century as a form such as Callum Skye<\/i>or something like Callum [surname] of Skye<\/i>, but it may be authentic.
\nHunter de Grae. <\/b>Name. 
\nSubmitted as Hunter d<\/i>u<\/u><\/i> Grae<\/i>, the correct preposition is de<\/i> (“of”) rather than the French contraction du<\/i> (“of the”): \u201cSubmitted as Sutton du Grae<\/i>, the correct preposition is de<\/i> rather than the French du<\/i> (a contraction of de<\/i> and le<\/i>). We have made this change. Ogress found de Grae<\/i> as a Gaelic header form in Woulfe, with the late period Anglicized Irish forms de Gray<\/i> and de Graye<\/i>. Therefore, we are able to register de Grae<\/i> as a Gaelic form. The Letter of Intent also included Grae<\/i> as an unmarked English surname and de Gray<\/i> in Scots. This name combines an English given name and Gaelic byname. This is an acceptable lingual mix under Appendix C of SENA. [Sutton de Grae, August 2015, A-Atenveldt]\u201d
\nJust as in the prior name, we have changed the preposition to the correct form, and the English-Gaelic lingual mix is acceptable under Appendix C of SENA.
\nHunter<\/i> is the submitter’s legal middle name, but is also a 16th century English surname that is registerable as a given name. Therefore, the submitter need not rely on the legal name allowance.
\nWe note that the Letter of Intent stated that the byname du Grae<\/i> is grandfathered to the submitter because it is the byname of his legal father, Ivan du Grae. However, the father’s name is registered as Ivan of Navarette, so du Grae<\/i> is not eligible for the grandfather clause.
\n`Izza al-Zarqa’. <\/b>Device change. Purpure, two horses combattant and on a chief argent three lotus blossoms in profile purpure. 
\n<\/i>Please advise the submitter to draw the lotus flowers more vertically centered on the chief so that they do not look as if they were issuant from the line of division.
\nThe submitter’s old device, Purpure, two horses combattant and a chief Or<\/i>, is retained as a badge.
\nJacket Tyllyng. <\/b>Device. Per fess azure and vert, on a fess between three lions argent a sinister fist azure. <\/i>
\n<\/i>William MacIver.<\/b> <\/b><\/i>Name and device. Per saltire gules and argent, in fess two wyverns erect respectant sable<\/i>.
\n<\/b><\/i>The submitted form of the byname, MacIver, was not clearly documented before 1650 in non-normalized sources. Past registration is no guarantee of current registerability.
\nHowever, Black s.n. Ivar dates Iver as a given name spelling to the first half of the 16th century. Period forms of the submitted byname in this source include M’Euir, Makevire, and McEvir. In additon, Ogress found the name Iver M’Ever in Account of the Clan-Iver by Peter Colin Campbell, dated to 1635 (p.98, https:\/\/books.google.com\/books?id=rSYAAAAAQAAJ). This example may have been normalized, but given the range of period examples, we can give the submitter the benefit of the doubt that the submitted form of the byname is reasonable.<\/dt>\n<\/dl>\n

Alexandra Starling of Ravenspurn. <\/b>Device. Purpure, a chevron inverted of chain conjoined at the point to a lighthouse Or flammant gules.

\n<\/b><\/i>Aibhil\u00edn Bhaire\u00edd. <\/b>Name. Submitted as Aibhil\u00edn <\/i>inghean<\/u><\/i> <\/i>B<\/u><\/i>aire\u00edd<\/i>, Baire\u00edd<\/i> is the Gaelic form of a borrowed Anglo-Norman surname, not a given name. Without evidence to show that a literal patronym can be formed from such a surname, we cannot register this name as submitted. In addition, due to the requirements of Gaelic grammar, the surname must be lenited. Therefore, we have removed the patronymic particle inghean<\/i> and have lenited the surname: Aibhil\u00edn<\/i> Bh<\/u><\/i>aire\u00edd<\/i>.
\nAillenn inghean Chonaill. <\/b>Device. Vert, two wolves combattant Or and in base a moon in her plenitude argent. 
\n<\/i>Ambrose the Gutless. <\/b>Name. Gutless<\/i> is an interpolated spelling of the early 17th century gut-less<\/i> and gutlesse<\/i>, found in the Oxford English Dictionary. The submitter may wish to know that literal descriptive bynames are not likely for 17th century England, but the name is registerable.
\nElezabeth Dayseye. <\/b>Name. 
\nFrederick Gloucester. <\/b>Name and device. Azure, a cross between four martlets, a bordure embattled argent. 
\n<\/i>Garrett Seaburn. <\/b>Name (see RETURNS for device). Nice 16th century English name!
\nIgnacio Diaz de Castile. <\/b>Name (see RETURNS for device). Diaz de Castile<\/i> is grandfathered to the submitter, as it is part of the registered name of his father, Adam Carlos Diaz de Castile<\/i>.
\nSigr\u00ed\u00f0r \u00dalfsd\u00f3ttir of Aschehyrst. <\/b>Device. Sable, a key inverted and on a chief argent two compass stars, the dexter sable and the sinister gules.<\/i> 
\nThere is a step from period practice for the use of compass stars.<\/p>\n

The following submissions were returned for further work, August 2016:<\/b><\/i><\/p>\n

\n
<\/a><\/a>Ambrose the Gutless. <\/b>Device. Sable, a hand argent between in chief two bees Or.<\/i> 
\nThis device is returned for presumption with the arms of Isengard: Sable, a hand argent<\/i>. The hand appears to be a primary charge as it crosses the fess line. Thus there is only one DC for adding the secondary charges in chief. Drawn properly as coprimary charges, with two bees Or and a hand argent of similar visual weight (with the hand staying below the fess line), the present presumption issue would not exist.
\nGarrett Seaburn. <\/b>Device. Per bend Or four piles inverted issuant from chief azure and barry wavy argent and azure, a bend vert.<\/i> 
\nAlthough blazoned on the Letter of Intent as Per bend Or four piles inverted issuant from chief azure and barry wavy argent and azure, a bend vert<\/i>, this device is actually more accurately described as Per bend gyronny from chief Or and azure and barry wavy argent and azure, a bend vert<\/i>. Therefore, it conflicts with the device of \u00dana ingenue Ragnaill:Checky sable and argent, a bend vert<\/i>. There is only one DC for changing the field.
\nIgnacio Diaz de Castile. <\/b>Device. Pean, on a tyger rampant Or a crescent gules, a bordure embattled Or crusilly Santiago gules. 
\n<\/i>This device is returned for redraw, for violating SENA A2C2 which states “Elements must be drawn to be identifiable.” Commenters had trouble identifying the gules charges on the bordure. On resubmission, please advise the submitter to draw fewer and larger ermine spots.
\nThe submitter has permission to conflict with the device of Adam Carlos Diaz de Castile: Pean, a tyger rampant within a bordure embattled Or <\/i>charged with six crosses of Santiago gules<\/i>.<\/dt>\n<\/dl>\n
