Calontir LoI dated 2023-06-07

Greetings most esteemed Sovereigns of Arms and the most noble members of the College of Heralds from Sarra the Brave, Saker Herald.

The Calontir College of Heralds presents this Letter of Intent for your consideration. We request registration of the following submissions.

This will be my last letter as Saker. Thank you all for your help and patience during my short term in this office.

1: Aurick Redmark - New Name (KLoI) (NP)

Spelling (Aurick Redmark) most important.

Aurick - Manx given name found in FamilySearch.org in the record of Aurick Corjeige, Death or Burial Date 21 Oct 1623, Place Michael, Isle of Man. Batch: V01065-5 The attached image clearly shows the name.

https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:X8SX-S68

Redmark - constructed English place name. One of the meanings in the MED s.v. mark(e) (n. 1) is a land, region or territory. (https://quod.lib.umich.edu/m/middle-english-dictionar...?...). That makes it a generic toponym.

Juliana de Luna's "Compound Placenames in English" (http://medievalscotland.org/jes/EnglishCompoundPlacena...) gives evidence of the pattern of Family Name + Generic Toponym for place names, including Fygmershe and Ballardes Wood.

Red is an English family name/surname found in Bardsley s.n. Read dated to the 1st year of the reign of Edward III or 1327.

Therefore, Redmark is a constructed English place name for a territory or land belonging to a family surnamed Red.

SENA Appendix A supports the use of unmarked locatives in Middle/Early Modern English.
