Fretty

Motto: Stand and Be Counted

Gules fretty Argent; on a chief wavy Bleu celeste, a rising sun Or.

Escudo de gules fretado de plata; en un jefe ondado de celeste, un sol saliente de oro.

Coat of arms interpreted and emblazoned by me with with a semi-circular ended shape, illuminated, and with a iridescent finishing.

The sun used to be emblazoned with a human face, with its eyes, mouth, and nose, but in all the interpretations that I know of this blazon, the sun appears without a human face.

The American College of Heraldry

The arms of David Robert Wooten, as he himself recounts on his website davidwooten.com were registered on 6 November 1992, with number 1,073, in The American College of Heraldry, an institution of which he is a platinum patron. The registered blazon was «Azure, fretty raguly Or», with fretty ~ fretado and raguly ~ ecotado, which in English I have also seen written as knotted.

Lema ~ motto

Of his complete achievement I have here limited myself to interpreting his shield and his motto «Melior nullo nullus melior» which can be translated from Latin as «no soy mejor que nadie, pero nadie es mejor que yo»

Fretado ~ fretty

[Avilés, J.; 1780a; página 94] describes fretado, which he writes with a double «t» as «frettado», as «se dice del Escudo y de las piezas principales cubiertas de cotizas, ú de bastones, cruzados, y entrelazados, en sotuer, que dexan espacios vacíos iguales en forma de Losanjes, y su figura es enrexada, como una celosía» and it can indeed also be found defined with the term «celosía» and, in turn, I have seen it written as «celosiado», and of all of them I have settled on the term «fretado» from José de Avilés, but with a single «t».

[Avilés, J.; 1780a; página 228] defines fretes, which he writes with a double «t» as «frettes», as «no son otra cosa, que las Cotizas, que forman el cuerpo del Frettado, que es quando un Escudó se compone de seis Cotizas, tres en Banda, y tres en Barra, que enlazadas las unas en las otras, dexan unos intervalos, como Losanges de diferente esmalte, que tienen lugar de campo».

Ecotado ~ raguly

[Avilés, J.; 1780a; página 75] writes on the term ecotado or in the plural ecotados that «se dice de los troncos, y ramas de los Árboles, quando parecen cortados los ramos menores, como en La Cruz de Borgoña.».
