What do you mean?
Well my full name is Kieran Stone. and i thought it might be interesting if people knew or wanted to find the origin of their name or the meaning of it.
for instance, Kieran means "black" or "dark, swarthy, black," or ""little black-haired one." and my family Stone coat of arms (as far as the internet tells me) is: or similarly or so what do you mean? you can say the meaning without expressing your name if you dont want people to know

Nice. Scottish roots by any chance? Just a guess and hopefully no offense.

Mine would be "Giver of Life" or "Life" "Black."
There is a motto that reads "I follow uprightly."

Reminded me - our school chaplain was called the Reverend Stone - he always started the RK lesson by writing his name on the blackboard: St.One.
Not saying he had a big ego or anything.....

So far, I've discovered three different Chambers family crests. I've decided that the only goal of these online crest/coat of arms sources is to sell you stuff with your crest on it, accuracy be damned.

The one on the left is my Mothers. In the center is my Fathers but I think it's bullshit, just something the company put together. The reason I think that, is because my Fathers family were septs of the Clan MacGregor. Septs are not named MacGregor, but lived on MacGregor lands and were accepted by the Chief of the Clan as loyal. Their crest is on the right and their motto is "Our Blood is Royal".

I have to agree with els on the "sell you as much stuff as possible with "your" crest on it ...
The site he linked to had a different crest for me, and I kind of remember getting a personalized catalog for the "wolf" family (and a personalized credit card offer) with a different version ... Black shield with a gold chevron with three green balls on it or something similar.

My family crest features a bottle of scotch and a tumor.
