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.

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: Clemens Gascoigne - New Device Per fess rayonny gules and Or, a lizard tergiant counterchanged. The submitter's name can be found on the Lochac Dec 17 '06 LoI. Correction (2008-Jan-29 20:01:12): That would be : the Lochac Dec 17 '07 LoI. Correction (2008-Jan-29 20:01:06): That would be : the Lochac Dec 17 '07 LoI. |
 2: Gilli Feilan - New Name & New Device Per bend sinister wavy vert and azure, two wolves sejant ululant argent. Submitter desires a masculine name. Both elements from Talan's "Old Norse Forms of Early Irish Names" http://www.ellipsis.cx/~liana/names/drafts/irish-norse.htm l Gilli - "Not in Arnórsson, though Lind says that there's a Gilli enn gerzki of unknown nationality in Landnámabók. He also has a Hebridean Gilli aa Gillastodom from the time of the Settlement, a Faroese Gilli lo,gso,gumaðr and a Hebridean Gilli iarl in the early 11th c., an Irish thrall Gilli þræll s. Iathguds Gilla s:ar Biadachs s:ar from the mid-11th c., and a Norwegian Þronder Gillæson 1366; the last suggests that the name was actually borrowed into the Norwegian name pool, though Fellows Jensen thinks that the majority of bearers of the name were descended from Irish speakers. The name is either from EIr gilla 'a servant, a lad' or a shortened form of EIr names of the Gilla X type." Feilan - "LindBN has one instance, Óleifr or Óláfr feilan Þorsteins son rauða, who appears to have been born in the Hebrides and who married a Scandinavian woman from the Hebrides (Arnórsson 48, and see Dufnall above). The byname is from EIr fáelán, a diminutive of fáel 'a wolf'; Fáelán was also used as an EIr masculine name". |

5: Robyn atte May - New Correction of Name This name was published as <Robin of the May> on the Lochac LoI of May 27 '07, and registered as <Robin atte May> on the September '07 LoAR. The LoI contained a typographical error, the first name ought to have been <Robyn>. The documentation supplied at the time was for the correct spelling. Robyn - Withycombe 3rd ed. s.n.

6: Torcaill macLéoid mhic Íomhair - New Name Change From Holding Name Old Item: Torcail of Torlyon, to be released. <Torcaill> - Withycombe s.n. Thork(et)ill "…adopted into Gaelic as Torcail, whence Torquil, a favourite name with the Macleods." June 06 LoAR http://www.sca.org/heraldry/loar/2006/06/06-06lar.htm l " The spelling mac Torcaill appears to be the standard Early Modern Irish form of this name; this spelling is found in the Annals of the Four Masters, the Annals of Ulster and the Annals of Loch Cé at various times in the 12th C." <Íomhair> - O'Brien, Kathleen M, Indes of Names in Irish Annals, Ímar/Íomhar http://www.s-gabirel.org/names/mari/AnnaldsIndes/masculine/Imar.shtm l, gives Íomhair as the Early Modern Irish Gaelic (c1200-c1700) genitive form of <Ímar>/<Íomhar>. <Mac Leòid> is found undated in Black, s.n. MacLeod meaning son of Leòid. Effrick's "Scottish Gaelic Given Names" http://www.s-gabriel.org/names/scottish.sht m l, gives the standardized form as <Léod> (which would be <Léoid> in the genitive). His previous name submission of Torcail macLeòid was returned by Laurel in August 06 The holding name Torcail of Torlyon was registered at that time. "This name conflicts with Torquil McLeod, registered September 1991. The names are identical in sound and nearly identical in appearance; they are the Gaelic and Anglicized Gaelic versions of the same name." |
 7: Wenefrith Everett de Calabria - New Device Azure, a polar bear passant guardant argent and in chief a comet fesswise Or. The submitter's name was registered in October 2006. |
