Atenveldt Submissions (excerpted from the S.C.A. College of Arms' Letters of Acceptance and Return)

The following submissions were registered by the SCA College of Arms, April 2016:
Adaleide de Warewic. Reblazon of device. Per chevron azure and gules, three New World dogwood blossoms one and two and a tower argent.
Registered in March of 2008 as Per chevron azure and gules, three dogwood blossoms one and two and a tower argent, the default dogwood has been declared to be the European version.
Æsa Væna. Name.
Nice Old Norse name!
Ealhswith Einarskona. Name.
This name combines an Old English given name and an Old Norse byname. This is an acceptable lingual mix under Appendix C of SENA.
Einarr fullspakr. Name.
Nice Old Norse name!
Mateo de Jesus Esteban Gomez. Name.
The Letter of Intent stated that de Jesus was a given name, citing the example Antonio De Jesus Ruiz from 1648 in the FamilySearch Historical Records. However, every other instance of de/De Jesus that could be found was as a byname. Therefore, the 1648 instance appears to be a double byname, not a double given name.
The pattern of double given and double bynames is found in Spain in the FamilySearch Historical Records. An example is Juan Mateo Gonzales De La Vega, dated to 1637. In addition, the pattern of triple bynames is rare, but found in early 17th century Spain. FamilySearch has the example Miguel Martinez Sarasibar Martinez, dated to 1604. (The parents are named Martin Sarasibar and Maria Martinez De Ydoate, showing that the bynames in this case are patronyms and matronyms.) Therefore we will register this name.
Morgaina Sarai la Foncée. Reblazon of badge. Sable, a peacock close maintaining in its beak a lotus inverted with seed pod argent, slipped and leaved vert.
Reblazoned in April of 2007 as Sable, a peacock, tail spread, maintaining in its beak a lotus with seed pod argent, slipped and leaved vert, the peacock is close and the lotus flower inverted.

Sebastian of Ered Sûl. Name and device. Gules, two griffins combatant and on a chief triangular Or a roundel gules. Ered Sûl is the registered name of an SCA branch.


The following submissions have been returned for further work, April 2016:


Æsa Væna. Device. Per pale purpure and argent, two domestic cats sejant respectant counterchanged argent and sable, on a chief vert an ivy vine sable leaved Or.

This device is returned for contrast issues. Blazoned on the Letter of Intent as Per pale purpure and argent, two domestic cats sejant respectant argent and sable, on a chief vert an ivy vine Or, the vine is actually sable with Or leaves and thus has insufficient contrast with the vert chief.

Anita de Challis. Augmentation of arms. Gules, a seeblatt and a chief doubly-arched Or, and as an augmentation on a canton gules a sun and a moon in her plenitude in pale within a bordure Or.
This augmentation is returned for contrast issues. SENA A3a3 states "Because an augmentation adds complexity, augmented devices are often allowed to violate certain style rules, such as allowing charges on tertiary charges or a complexity count of greater than eight, as long as the identifiability of the design is maintained. However, they may not violate the rules on contrast." Here, there is no contrast between the Or bordure of the canton and the Or chief and so this must be returned.
