  1. Bronwen Blackwell. Name and Device. Per pale vert and argent, a seeblatt counterchanged.
  2. “Bronwen” is SCA compatible. “Blackwell” is in R&W, p.47, under the heading Blackwell.

  3. Caterine d’Albret. Device. Per pale vert and purpure, three fleurs-de-lys argent.
  4. Her name is currently in process on the November 2001 Outlands Letter of Intent.

  5. Conchenn ingen Briain. Name and Device. Per chevron vert and argent, two spoons in saltire argent and a brown mouse statant erect proper.
  6. “Conchenn” is found in a web article, Early Irish Feminine Names from the Index to O’Brien’s Corpus Genealogiarum Hiberniae, compiled and explained by Tangwystyl verch Morgant Glasvryn, c. 1997, 1999 by Heather Rose Jones. http://www.s-gabriel.org/names/tangwystyl/obrien/ The source for this is a compilation of early 12th century Irish pedigrees. “ingen” means “daughter of” and is also explained in the web article. “Briain” is the genitive form of “Brian” as found in O’C&M, p.35. The name Brian has been very popular in Ireland since Brian Boru won the battle of Clontarf in 1014.

  7. Dietrich Karl von Andernach. Name and Device. Per chevron gules and sable, an eagle between three crosses formy Or.
  8. “Dietrich” is in Bahlow, p.94. Dietrich is dated to 1318, in this spelling, in Talan Gwynek's article "Medieval German Given Names from Silesia" . “Karl” is in Bahlow, p.273. Karl is found dated to 1501-1550 in Plauen according to Talan's article "Late Period German Masculine Given Names" at . The client documents “Andernach” using the Encyclopedia Britannica, 1956. It is a town in western Germany on the left bank of the Rhine 10 miles NW of Coblenz. Antunnacum, the Roman frontier station, was founded by Drusus. In 1109 Andernach received its civil rights. In 1253 it joined the confederation of the Rhine cities, and was the most southern member of the Hanseatic league.

  9. Katherine Linnet Holford. Badge. Sable, a Catherine wheel argent charged with a capital letter A gules.
  10. Her name was registered in March of 1987 via the Outlands. There is a possible conflict with Iathus of Scara (Apr 83): "Sable, a roundel embattled voided argent," which charge is also known as a cogwheel and is not a CD away from a Catherine wheel. Visually these two pieces of armory are distinct.

  11. Ophelia Mulryan. Device Resubmission. Per fess azure and argent, a mermaid in her vanity proper crined gules, in chief three escallops argent.
  12. Her name was registered in November 2000 via Drachenwald. Her previous device submission, “Per bend sinister azure and argent, a mermaid in her vanity proper crined gules, in chief three escallops argent”, was returned from Laurel in November of 2000 because proper Caucasian skin is equivalent to argent and if drawn properly, the effectively argent skin of the mermaid would be largely against the argent part of the field. It was returned for violating RfS VIII.2, Armorial Contrast. Johan Magnusson Kivisuo, Edelweiss Herald, suggested dividing the field per fess as one way to fix the problem.

  13. Sabiha al-Zarqa. Name.
  14. The documentation she provides for “Sabiha” comes from an e-mail correspondence with Shayk Da’ud ibn Auda, al-Jamal Herald. “Salahuddin Ahmed, "A Dictionary of Muslim Names", pp. 318-319, cites Sabiha, and notes the historical person Sabiha Malika Qurtaba, the wife of the Umayyad Khalifa al-Hakim al-Mustansir. He also states in a footnote that "she was knows as 'queen of Cordova,'", and cites to Fatima Memissi's "The Forgotten Queens of Islam", p. 44. Sabiha Malika Qurtaba means literally Sabiha, queen of Cordova, Cordova (Arabic Qurtaba) being a capital city in Muslim Spain. In any case, Sabiha appears to be a period feminine Arabic given name, and there should be no problem in registering it.” “al-Zarqa” is found in a web article, Arabic Naming Practices And Period Names List by Da'ud ibn Auda, © 1998 by David Appleton. http://www.s-gabriel.org/names/daud/arabic-naming/ It is listed at the bottom under “Women’s Cognomens” and means “the blue-eyed”.

  15. Thomas Edward Dudley. Change of Registered Device. Per pale argent and sable, three bars counterchanged.
  16. His name was registered May of 2000 via Caid. It was changed on that letter from Seth Alexander Kygheley. His current device, “Argent ermined azure, an oak tree proper issuant from a base sable”, was registered in December of 1993 via Ansteorra. If this new device gets registered, he would like his old device to be released. Kraken notes: This is effectively identical to "Barry and per pale argent and sable." No conflicts found through 3/2001 either way.

  17. Tuman Elnikov. Change of registered device. Per chevron throughout sable and Or, two towers Or and a demon genuant guardant azure maintaining a sword gules.
  18. His name and device were registered in September of 1995 via the Outlands. His device is currently registered as “Per chevron throughout sable and Or, two towers Or and a demon genuant guardant vert maintaining a sword gules.” He swears that the demon was supposed to be azure, but a check of the forms by both myself and Laurel confirmed that it was sent in as vert.

  19. Uilliam MacMillan. Device. Sable, a bear rampant and a catamount rampant addorsed between in pale an arrow fesswise reversed and an arrow fesswise argent.
  20. His name was reviewed by Laurel on October 13. I have not received the LoAR from that meeting at the time of this writing.

  21. Unser Hafen, Barony of. Badge. (Fieldless) On a portcullis vert a torch Or.
  22. This branch-name was registered in February of 1991 via the Outlands.

  23. Zoraya de Navarre. Device. Purpure, a natural tiger couchant guardant Or marked sable between two gardenia blossoms in bend sinister argent, a bordure Or.
  24. Her name was registered in February of 2001 via the Outlands as "Zoraya of Navarre". A change of registered name submission was sent in October 2001 to change the name to Zoraya de Navarre.
