Herewith, comments on IloI #Æ72 from the Heraldic Flying Circus and Moving Company:
1. Aburgha Chaghadai
New device: No conflicts found. What is the current position on crescents gules on argent? Does it apply to crescents on charges?
2.Adam Enstone on Tyne
New name: Adam of Enstone on Tyne would be fine, but is there any evidence for retaining a prepositional phrase when a place-name becomes a locative surname?
New Device: No conflicts found. We thought the use of a half- human, half vegetable monster was odd, but the only other such registered (Eleri of Nefyn. 04/88 via East "Sable, a demi female affronty issuant from a stump eradicated argent, maintaining a leaved staff bendwise Or.") was registered without comment.
3. Aibell Shúlglas
Name registered 09/01 via Æthelmearc.
New device: No conflicts found
5. Aíne ingean Ruaidri
New device: No conflicts found
6. Alan the Strong

(Fieldless) A butterfly argent, wings tipped gules.
Zen CVD plus addition of co-primary (or secondary)

Argent, mulletty azure, a horseshoe sable.
1 CVD for field vs. fieldless, 1 for removal of secondary charge group.
11. Bevis of Sunderoak
New name: Actually, what Withycombe says in the cited entry is that the name was "not uncommon".
12. Brian of Leichester
Name registered 03/88 via East.
New badge: No conflicts found. The roundels should be specified as in fess.
13. Bridget Walker
New name: Withycombe p. 54, s.n. Bridget-"...earliest occurence which has been noted as a christian name is the daughter of Edward IV.." (1480-1513). Reaney and Wilson, p.473, s.n. Walker gives Robert le Walker 1260.
New device: No conflicts found. This device is pictorial, but opinion was divided as to whether it was unregisterably so.
14. Carlo Garlucci
Name registered as "Carlo Gallucci", 08/02 via Æthelmearc
New badge: No conflicts found.
16. Dafydd MacNab
New name: Combining Welsh and Scots is a weirdness, but registerable (viz. Anton Cwith, 08/01 LoAR).
New device: No conflicts found.
17. Dafydd MacNab
New badge: No conflicts found.
18. Donnan the Solitary
New badge: No conflicts found.
19. Elizabeth Musard
New name: Reaney and Wilson. p. 318, s.n. Mussard gives Alfricus Musard 1134-1140, a bit closer to the 1205 date doc'ed for the given name, and the desired spelling, as well.
New device: No conflicts found. The tygers need Tyger Chow ™- please draw them larger. At this size, they are rather indistinct against the ermine.
20. Elizabeth Musard
New badge: Clear of:
David the Fretful

(Fieldless) A fret couped per pale sable and Or.

New device: No conflicts found.
27. Jochen Blitzger
New device: Conflict with:
Jochen of Nithgaard
February of 2000 (via Æthelmearc):
Azure, a helm argent between three lightning bolts in pall Or.
This is too much of a coincidence- are we sure this isn't a resub? "Jochen of Nithgaard" sure looks like a holding name.
28. John Ignaiszack
New name: English and Polish is an unregisterable combination (viz. Ladislaus de Brady, 09/95 LoAR).
29. Katherine Loch Duibh
New name: Does the submitter want Scots or English? Ekwall, p. 47, gives Blackwater 1576. Mills, p. 41, gives Blackpoole 1602, Black Pul 1260.
New device: the trident should be blazoned palewise, not in pale.
Clear of:

32. Konstantinos Akropolites

All by change of field tincture and addition of charges on the chief.
Clear of:

1 CVD for complex line, 1 for addition of charge on chief.

Azure, a boar's head erased, in chief three annulets argent.
1 CVD each for type and number of secondaries.
35. May Wynn
New device: There should be more and deeper embattlements. Clear of:
Harold von Rheinfelden
January of 1987 (via the West):
Azure, on a fess embattled between three mullets of four points Or, three hurts.
1 CVD for change of tincture of charges on the field, 1 for changes to type and number of tertiaries.
This is probably clear of:
Corwyn O'Domhnaill
February of 1988 (via Atlantia):
Azure, on a fess embattled-counterembattled between two pairs of swords crossed in saltire and a mullet
argent, a barrulet azure.
1 CVD for counter-embattled, 1 for change to type of over half the secondaries.
36. Michelina da Trento
New device: The cups should have wider bases. We like the little sub-fleur-de-lys fiddly bits, but can this be documented as a period depiction? Clear of:
Alejandro del Águila
December of 1992 (via Trimaris):
Azure, three goblets and on a chief urdy argent, two annulets conjoined sable.
1 CVD for complex line, 1 for changes to number, type, and tincture of tertiaries.

40. Óláfr Thorvardson

Vert, a wolf statant contourny and on a chief indented argent three caltraps vert.
1 CVD for contourny, 1 for embattled vs. indented, 1 for changes of type and tincture of tertiaries.
41. Otelia d'Alsace
Resub badge: Possible conflict with:
Ottokar von dem Schwarzwald
August of 1997 (via the Middle):
Azure, on a cross formy Or a chalice gules.
1 CVD for fieldless vs. azure, none for change of type to tertiary. Is there a CVD for a cross patonce vs. formy?
42. Paul Spyke
New name: We feel that the reference to Withycombe does not tell the whole story. From Withycombe, s.n. Paul, pp.239-40:
"I have found the name Paul recorded only 4 times in the 13th C (probably the same man in three cases), and there can be no doubt that it was a very rare name in the Middle Ages. Bardsley, it is true, says that it was one of the favorite names in the 13th C, but though he derived from it many surnames (e.c. Paul, Pawl(e), Paulin, Pawley, Pawlet, Powell, Pollit), it is significant that he does not give a single example of it as a christan name, and he was certainly wrong about the origin of some of these names. It was not until the 17th c that Paul had a certain degree of popularity...."
43. Rhydderch ap Erwin
New device: There was a good bit of debate as to whether this was slot-machine heraldry. Although, with the sword as drawn, it looks like a primary between dissimilar secondaries, this is realyy, reconstructed from the blazon, three dissimilar charges in fess. Perhaps the sword should be on a pale?
45. Seth Mac Michael
Name registered 08/02 via Æthelmearc.
New badge: Gorillas are registerable. His device, "Per pale purpure and gules, two gorillas statant respectant argent", was registered 02/03 via Æthelmearc.
47. Sophie Davenport
Resubmitted device: Clear of:
Kelson de la Croix June of 1973:
Sable, a bend sinister gules fimbriated argent, between a Latin cross and an olive branch bendwise
sinister argent.
1 CVD for changing tincture of fimbriation, 1 for changes to secondaries.
48. Taileshithe of the Greenwood
New device: This is a pall inverted. No conflicts found.
52. Vlksha Iakoleva
New name: Submitter is mixing genders. If she wishes to use the masculine Vlksha, she needs a masculine patronymic (best guess: Iakolov).
53. Zoe Akropolitina
New device: Clear of:
Jean Claude Marcel
January of 1994 (via the Middle):
Gules, a griffin segreant contourny within an orle of fleurs-de-lis Or.
1 CVD for field, 1 for reversing the griffin, 1 for tincture of peripheral charges.
Until next month, we remain
