Each of our personalised gift ideas features the coat of arms relating to your chosen surname. Here’s how to find out if we’ve got the name you need.

How to find out if we have your desired coat of arms.

It’s easier than you might think! Our specialists have spent more than 4 decades searching through all sorts of source material, so the hard work is done for you. Their discoveries are uploaded onto our database, which contains over a million surnames. To search for the one you’d like to find out about, simply type it into the search box which is at the top of every page on our website. In some cases, a drop-down arrow will appear, allowing you to select the country of origin, if more than one has been discovered. Our system will tell you immediately if we have the name you’d like. Plus it will also give you a description of its origins as well as the crest and coat of arms.

Each coat of arms is packed with symbolism and if you’d like to check what the images mean, just click here to read our free heraldry dictionary. You’ll discover all about the hidden meanings. Then comes the nice part of choosing the personalised gift ideas you’d like to feature the heraldry on!

Choosing your personalised gifts.

We have so many lovely personalised gift ideas to choose from, it’s hard to know where to start! As mentioned, our surname history scroll is the most popular gift, because it is packed with information about the name you choose. Plus, the coat of arms is displayed prominently at the top, with gorgeous border graphics. We also have a variety of other printed gifts, such as Scottish Clan Histories, Irish Histories and Double Coat of Arms prints. These allow you to include your own message to the couple, and are perfect for a couple’s celebration. But what about other gifts?
