Summary
| Description |
English: Roche Family Heraldry Description:
Blazon (Shield): Gules (red), three roaches naiant (swimming) in pale argent (silver). Gules (red) represents military strength and magnanimity. The three roaches (fish) symbolize the family name (a play on "Roche" and "roach," the fish), and they are typically shown swimming in a vertical line. Argent (silver/white) signifies peace and sincerity. Crest: Symbolism: Fish (Roaches): The presence of fish in the Roche arms is a pun on their name, a common feature in heraldry known as canting arms, where the symbols reflect the family name. Red (Gules): This color in heraldry denotes warrior-like qualities and is often linked to noble families with a strong martial tradition. |
