Surname[edit]

From what I understand, the territorial designation in Sir Crispin's name is an integral part of his surname. I think that it ought to be included in the title of the article, since it is his name and it is what he is known as. Any thoughts?--E va ^db 12:32, 7 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I've always heard that, too. I've been on the Heraldry Society of Scotland's web forum, and they include these location as aPART of the last name.--Dave Boven 11:20, 16 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

It's been a week and a half...no other thoughts? I'll move it back to "of Lochnaw," then.--E va ^db 09:13, 19 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

This was tacked on the end but is a repeat so I have removed for now unless someone wants to re-edit back any of the material - Alci12 13:42, 17 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
