1: Ælfgifu Falkenglen - New Name & New
Device Returned
Azure, on a gore sinister Or a thistle proper.
While the given name is acceptable and the combination of an
early
period given name and a later period byname is acceptable, we could
find no documentation to support the byname, Falkenglen. We did find
sufficient support for either Falcenham/Falkenham or Faltenham.
The device violates the Rules for Submission by using a charged gore.
We have suggested that the submitter consider Or, a thistle proper
and a gore sinister azure. |
|
2: Cameron Da'Bryt - New Name & New Device Returned
Azure, a rabbit's head cabossed argent.
The name is returned because we could find no documentation to support
the use of the particle "da' ". We have informed the submitter that by
eliminating the particle, the name would be acceptable (unfortunately,
he did not permitted such a change).
The device conflicts with a badge registered to Eógan Mac
Ailpein
(Atlantia, 0799): (Fieldless) A hare's head cabossed argent.
There is no difference between a hare and a rabbit or a coney. Also, we
note that Kingdom colleges cannot create holding names, and that the
submitter is responsible for submitting proof (birth certificate, for
example) that Cameron is his legal given name.

dexter
chief a mullet of four points argent and in base a fox passant
reguardant
gules.

than guardant. |

Molieres to match the
supporting documentation. |
|
10: Katharine McClung - New Device Accepted as redrawn

a spear inverted. |
|
11: Katla úlfhéðinn - New Badge
Accepted
Gules, a bend sinister counter ermine fimbriated argent
between two crosses of Cerdaña argent.
We note the badge is to be jointly owned with Thorgrim Skullsplitter
(registered in February of 2005 via AEthelmearc). |
|
12: Máirín O'Cadhla - New Name Returned
While the submitter presented evidence concerning her proposed given
name, the documentation used precedents that bar the registration of
that name. It generally is not period practice in Ireland to use the
name of the Blessed Virgin Mary as a personal given name. It is
possible, however, as a late-period Anglicized name in Ireland.
Further, we did find evidence that Maire is documentable in
period Irish practice. The byname O'Cadhla would more likely be
formed as either inghean Cadlai or inghean Uá Cadlai in Gaelic or as O'Kiely or Kiely
in Anglicized Irish. Thus we have suggested either Maire inghean Cadlai or Mary Kiely.

13: Martyn Kinnish - New Name Accepted
The submitter's mundane name is Martin Kemmish. We have accepted the
proposed name despite its closeness to the submitter's mundane name.
The Administrative Handbook III.A.10. states:
Name
Used by the Submitter Outside the Society - No name will be registered
to a submitter if it is identical to a name used by the submitter for
purposes of identification outside of a Society context. This includes
legal names, common use names, trademarks, and other items registered
with mundane authorities that serve to identify an individual or group.
This restriction applies to Society branches as well as individuals.
Thus, a branch cannot use the name of a significant location (a town or
county, for example) within its borders. This restriction is intended
to help preserve a distinction between a submitter's identity within
the Society and the submitter's identity outside of the Society.
A small change in the name is sufficient for registration, such as the
addition of a syllable or a spelling change that changes the
pronunciation. However, a change to spelling without a change in
pronunciation is not sufficient. For example, Alan Miller could not
register the name Alan Miller or Allan Miller but he could register the
name Alan the Miller. Further, submitters may register either a name or
armory which is a close variant of a name or insignia they use outside
the Society, but not both.

14: Odette d'Arques - New Device Accepted as redrawn
with reblazon
Or, a chevron vert between two rams heads erased
respectant and a fleur-de-lys sable.
Originally blazoned as Or, a chevron vert between two rams heads
erased combattant and a fleur-de-lys sable. The correct term for
the position of the heads is "respectant."
|
|
15: Ragnarr the Fierce - New Name Changed
Orinally submitted as Ragnar_.
We have changed the given name to the documented Norse form to comply
with the submitter's request for authenticity to 9th c. Norse. We also
note
that the documented Norse formation of the byname per Geirr-Bassi is inn greypr,
"the gripping or fierce". However, since the submitter does not permit
major changes, we have maintained his byname as submitted.

|
16: Ruland Burckhart - New Name & New Device
Quarterly purpure and sable, in bend two bulls rampant
argent.
|
|
17: Sultana bint Mihail - New Device Accepted
Gules, a chevron argent between two dumbeks Or and a nine
man morris board argent. |
|
18: Tufa Gunthamunths - New Name & New Device
Returned
Pily gules and Or, a bear's pawprint sable.
We found no evidence of unmarked patronymic bynames in Gothic.
Patronymic formations are documented among Goths in Latin contexts.
Thus believe that Tufa cognomento
Guthamunths
is acceptable. However, but the submitter did not allow major changes.
Although the device is acceptable, it cannot be forwarded without an
accompanying name submission. We note that the paw print would be
better redrawn so that the side edges fall within the Or areas of the
field. Also, the ink used to color the Or portions of the field should
be yellow, not orange.

19: Vigo da Napoli - New Name & New Device
Accepted
Or, a horse's head erased and in base a cinquedea dagger
fesswise sable.
