8: Keneth the Conqueror - New Name
We dont have any questions about the documentation. But were wondering if this name isnt a little pretentious? Is he an authorized fighter? If so, hes in for a lot of jokes with every loss on the field.
9: M¢r inghean Sheachnasaigh - New Name & New Device
The name is correct for Irish, but given the request for 13th century specifically, definitely run this one by the experts. The spelling looks a little modern.

12: Vilhj lmr Edvardarson - New Name & New Device
The documentation cited for the patronymic does not support the form submitted. If the patronymic were formed as described, it would be Edvardsson. Edvardarson may be acceptable but, it isnt whats documented here.
