Éile is a Gaelic feminine given name found in the Academy of St. Gabriel Report #1566 (http://www.panix.com/~gabriel/public-bin/showfinal.cgi?1566+0), which says in part that the name is plausible for an Irishwoman. The S. Gabriel report states (regarding this being the name of a legendary figure) that "We were unable to find firm evidence that <E/ile> was a real person, but even if she were not, the names of both her sisters were used throughout the Middle Ages. It is therefore reasonable to suppose that <E/ile> could have been used as a name during that time as well. Unfortunately, we cannot suggest a particular period for the use of this name because we can only speculate that it might have been used."

We therefore ask the assistance of the College in documenting this given name.

Submitter's previous design was returned on the East Kingdom Letter of Decision of December 2022 (https://bth.eastkingdom.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/2022-December-LoD.pdf):

This device must be returned for violation of SENA A3D2c: a tankard and an anvil are both compact orientable charges, and being comparable, "should be in either identical postures/orientations or an arrangement that includes posture/orientation." As the tankard is bendwise sinister and the anvil is fesswise, these orientations are not identical.

This device is also returned for violation of SENA A2C3: "Elements must be drawn at an appropriate size for their role in an armorial submission and must be generally large enough to be identified as charges." The bend as drawn here is far too narrow for its role as the primary charge.

We believe this design addresses the reason for return.
