To be precise, the College of Arms Administrative Handbook has

     A. Names Which May be Registered to Individuals - Names which may
     be registered to individuals are divided into several
     administrative categories.

     1. Primary Society Name - The single personal name under which
     records of registration are maintained. ...

     2. Alternate Society Name - Any personal name(s) registered for an
     individual other than his or her Primary Society Name. An
     Alternate Society Name may be registered alone or may be
     associated with a badge. Records for both name and armory will be
     maintained under the individual's Primary Society Name.

So, to be precise, the device is attached to the Primary Society
Name.  Any Alternate Society Names are also filed in the same folder,
with the Primary Society Name on it.  Any badges for the Alternate
Society Names go into the same folder.  On the Letter of Intent, it
would be listed like

     Dietrich Kempenich von Eltz. Alternate name Hanse Cleermaeckere
     and badge. Argent, a brown hen proper.

and in the Armorial as

     Dietrich Kempenich von Eltz|201108X|b|Argent, a brown hen
     proper.|(For Hanse Cleermaeckere)

("|b|" for badge)

     Hanse Cleermaeckere|201108X|AN|For Dietrich Kempenich von Eltz|

("|AN|" for Alternate Name)

Meaning that Dietrich Kempenich von Eltz is the primary name, and
though the other two are also findable, they're still under Dietrich
etc.

Or, in very brief:

Yes.
