**April 2012 - Tinctures and other Descriptives:**
From Pelican: Tinctures and Other Descriptive Words in Order Names and Heraldic Titles In January 2012, we asked commenters to consider the current precedent regarding the use of color words in order names. In February 2003, Pelican ruled that "no evidence has been found that heraldic tinctures (rather than common color terms such as bleu) were used in order names." Since that time, our knowledge of period order names and heraldic titles has expanded considerably, in large part due to articles like my "Heraldic Titles from the Middle Ages and Renaissance" (found at []) and my "Medieval Secular Order Names" (found at [] or at []). The color terms used in order names and heraldic titles are summarized in the May 2009 Cover Letter. They are the everyday terms for heraldic tinctures, mostly in French, but also in German, English, and Spanish. Several French terms are identical to the terms used for heraldic tinctures, including // vert //, // or // , and // argent // (which is found in sign names but not order names). This means that half the colors used in order names (vert, or and argent) are at least sometimes identical to the heraldic terms. Even // vaire // is found in French inn signs. Similarly, early blazon seems to have sometimes used the everyday color terms // rouge // and // noir //. Given the variability in the use of heraldic and everyday terms, and the confusion this causes for submitters and commenters, we are hereby allowing the use of heraldic color terms in order names as well as the everyday terms. However, no convincing evidence has been presented for the use of non-heraldic color names, including the names for particular shades of a color, like // scarlet // or // crimson // ... []
