Cost: $17.50AU / $20.00NZ per new submission (name, device or badge). No cost for resubmissions (within the permitted time limit) or branch submissions. Note: a new name and device costs a total of $40. Make cheques or money orders payable to "SCA Inc. College of Heralds". Do not send cash through the post!
NAMES: Two (2) copies of both the form and ALL documentation, including title page of each book NB: The title page is not the same as the book cover! Essays about a submitter's persona may be entertaining, but do NOT constitute documentation. When citing web sites as documentation, you must include a printout of the pages used. Please don't staple your forms, paperclips are fine and loose is ok too.
DEVICES AND BADGES: Four (4) colour copies and one (1) black & white OUTLINE copy. The colour copies should be accurately coloured, preferably in felt tip pen. Colour printers or faint coloured pencil is not acceptable. The colours must be visible across a crowded Herald's meeting. Laurel has requested that gold pen NOT be used, as it deteriorates in files and turns to glue. Please don't staple your forms, assuming that all goes well at kingdom level they are separated and go to four different homes. Paperclips are fine and loose is ok too.
Please include ALL necessary documentation to support each submission. It is the responsibility of the submitter to present their submission in a way that makes registration easy. Name documentation should be as accurate as possible. Failure to provide sufficient documentation is a cause for return of your submission. If you are having trouble with your documentation then speak to your local herald. If they can't answer your specific question, consider writing to Blazons, or contacting me. If I don't know the answer but I will at least be able to point you in the direction of someone who will.
Eilis Ó Cuinn
Device: Per ben sinster wavy azure and argent, a bend sinster wavy counterchanged between a seahorse contourney Or and a fret vert.
Returned for redraw. The line of division is too shallow.
Clemens Gascoigne
Device: Per fess rayonny gules and Or, a lizard tergiant counterchanged.
Returned for redraw. Both the lizared and the line of division have outlines so thick as to appear fimbriated.
Lochac LoI dated 2007-12-17
Unto Elisabeth de Rossingnol, Laurel Queen of Arms; Margaret MacDubhshithe, Pelican Queen of Arms; Jeanne Marie Lacroix, Wreath Queen of Arms, and the members of the College of Arms does Tamsyn Northover, Rocket Herald, send greetings!
The Lochac College of Heralds requests that the following items be considered for registration:
 1: Adrian Neggerstein - New Name & New Device Vert, two bars wavy between a mullet of four points argent and three bezants two and one Submitter desires a masculine name. Bahlow, Deutsches Namenlexikon; Famillien- und Vornamen nach Urspring und Sinn erklärt (Hamburg, Gondrom, 1992) s.n. Adrian has <Adrian Wettach> as an undated Swiss name. The patronymic <Adransen> is listed for 1584, it seems fair to assume that the given name was used before then. Brechenmacher, Etymologisches Wörterbuch der Deutschen Famuiliennamen s.n. Necker has <Nechere> (1273) as an equivalent for `am Neckar' (1331, 1343) and <Neckermann> (1504) meaning `ener vom Neckar'. <Neggerstein> (1328) can be found s.n. Neckerstein. The closest we found was Kathleen MacCarthy [04/1998 via the Outlands], "Vert, two bars wavy argent between three crosses of St. Brigid and a harp Or", with one CD for the type of secondaries, and a second for the arrangement. |

2: Clemens Gascoigne - New Name Submitter desires a feminine name. Clemens - Withycombe s.n. Clemence, Clemency (f) "Latin clementia 'mildness'. Seems to have been used as a f. form of the man's name Clemens". Clemencia, Clementia Cur 1200, 1203, 1210, 1220 Clemens Lincs. 1534 Gascoigne - R&W s.n. Gascoign [etc.] William Gascoigne 1389. FFHu. 'From Gascony'. |
 3: Domenego di Giorgio da Trento - New Name & New Device Gules, a horse rampant within five roundels in annulo and a mount argent. Submitter desires a masculine name. <Domenego> & <da Trento> from St Gabriel www. s-gabriel.org/3139 "The Italian name Domenego is a fine choice for your given name; the name is also spelled Domenico in other northern Italian dialects. [1,2,3]" [1] Talan Gwynek, "15th Century Italian Men's Names" (WWW: Academy of Saint Gabriel, 1998). http://www.s-gabriel.org/docs/italian15m.htm l [2] Arval Benicoeur and Talan Gwynek, "Fourteenth Century Venetian Personal Names" (WWW: Academy of Saint Gabriel, 1999). http://www.s-gabriel.org/names/arval/venice14 / [3] Uckelman, Sara L., "Fifteenth Century Venetian Masculine Names" (WWW: Self-published, 2004) http://www.ellipsis.cx/~liana/names/italian/venice.htm l "The Italian byname meaning 'of Trento' is da Trento; we found an example of the corresponding German byname in Nuernberg in 1497. [6]" [6] Uckelman, Sara L., "German Names from Nuernberg, 1497" (WWW: privately published, 2005) http://www.ellipsis.cx/~liana/names/german/nurnberg1497.htm l <Giorgio> can be found in occurs in Talan and Arval's article cited as [2] above. An example of the construction can be found in Talan's 15th Century Italian Men's Names" http://www.s-gabriel.org/docs/italian15m.htm l <Ruberto di Girardin da Lendenara> appears in a salary list for 1473-1474. The closest we found was Da'ud ibn Ali [07/1990 via the West], "Per pale sable and azure, a horse rampant and a mount argent", with a CD for the field, and another for removing the roundels. |

4: Domenego di Giorgio da Trento - New Alternate Name Svartr Ormsson djákn Submitter desires a masculine name. <Svartr> is found on p. 15 and <Ormr> on p 13 of Geirr Bassi. <Ormsson> is constructed from <Ormr> using the patronymic formation rules on p 17. Men's names ending in -r become -s in the genitive -r >-s : Ormr > Ormsson. <djákn> meaning deacon can be found in Zo{e"}ga, Concise Dictionary of Old Icelandic, http://www.northvegr.org/zoega/index002.ph p Submitted as <Svartr Ormsson in djáknsson> we have changed the name to the present form because, as Albion noted in commentary, "The byname does not need to be declined with <-son>, since his father's given name already is. Also, <in djákn> is not a correct construction, for two reasons. First, <in> is the feminine form of the definite article; the masculine form is <(h)inn>. Second, <inn> is only used with weak adjectives; <djákn> is a noun." |
As usual, my thanks to all who assisted with preparation for this letter.
Here ends Lochac's December letter of intent.
