[MR] HERALDRY -- Kingdom Acceptances for August

[Robert J Welenc]

Apologies for the delay -- and Thanks to Lord Blaise de Cormeilles
for prodding me to remember this!

At the Golden Dolphin meeting for August, the following submissions
were tentatively ACCEPTED	 and forwarded to the Laurel officers:

Aeschylus Grendel.	Name.

Amber Roriksdottír.	Name change.

Andronikos Psellos	Device.
Per pale gules and azure, a triangle inverted voided Or.

Atlantia, Kingdom of.
-Order of the Manatee (OED dates to 1555)

-Order of the Opal (OED dates to 1591)

-Order of the Ibis

-Order of the Narwhal

-Order of the Conch

-Order of the Nereid

Cassandra the Forlorn	Device change.
Per fess engrailed argent and sable, three crescents gules and a
natural dolphin naiant argent.

Catriona inghean Ghiricc.	Device.
Per chevron vert and Or, two crosses of Jerusalem Or and a thistle
sable. 

Dionello Cristoforo de' Medici.	Name.

Elizabeth Cameron of Skye.	Name.

Eryngerd le Trewe.	Name.
In accordance with the submitter's request for an authentic 14th
Century British name, we have modified ‘the True' to a form
documented to 1327. 

Ethelfleda Davidsdohter. 	Name change.	
The use of the Old Norse patronymic marker "dottir" is inconsistent
in an otherwise English name.  Since our sources indicate that
"Ethelfleda" did not long survive the Norman Conquest, and "David"
was not introduced into England until the Norman Conquest, there is
very little time in which they could overlap, probably only the 50 to
100 years following 1066.  We have therefore changed "dottir" to an
English form "dohter" found in 1095. 

Ethelfleda Davidsdohter.	Badge.
(Fieldless) A snake glissant azure. 

Iollan mac a Phearsoin	Device.
Per chevron vert and azure a chevron raguly on the upper edge argent
between two dolphins haurient Or and a candle fesswise argent lit at
both ends atop a candlestick Or.

as many from sinister argent.

counterchanged.
