Of course, my personal preference involves Red Dragons.
Blue with a gold Lion and Red with a Gold Lion both sound good to me,
though an Ansteorran Star would not be my preference. I think it
makes the design too busy. With the basic designs above I would use
Blue and Gold or Red and Gold respectively as the livery colors.
I still have not heard a better motto than the one I suggested, "Comme
Fait les Heroes" (As heroes do). Thought there was some question
about the proper grammatical form for mottoes.
Someone brought up a couple of French names, but you may not want to
let me get started on that one. They brought up two (I hope I
remember them correctly),
Rayon d'Espoir (Ray of Hope) I do not really care for this one, and
Parc du Midi which mean Park of the Midi. The Midi is a region in
South Central France centering around Toulouse and Carcassonne. The
same area, roughly speaking is, also known as Languedoc, or Occitanie.
I love the Midi, I spent five months in Carcassonne and another five
in Toulouse, but I do not think that one will fly.
But, I could try out a few of the ideas already suggested,
Champs des Lions (Field of the Lions)
Pays Montueux (Hill Country).
I have gotten started and I am going to work on a few more. A good
name, in a civilized language like French, would be a good thing.
