Crest & Motto

Clan Home Crest Badge & Motto

The motto of Clan Home is A Home, A Home, A Home. It appears on the Clan Home crest badge: the chief’s heraldic crest set inside a strap and buckle that carries the motto.

In Scotland a crest belongs to the chief, not to everyone with the surname. Clan members may wear the crest badge, with the crest inside the strap and buckle, to show that they belong to the clan. The plain crest without the strap remains the chief’s own.

Questions about Clan Home

What is the Home motto?

'A Home, A Home, A Home.'

Does Clan Home have a chief?

COSCA's directory names Michael David Alexander Douglas-Home, 16th Earl of Home, but the Standing Council of Scottish Chiefs' own members list does not include a Home/Hume entry, so this hub does not assert a Lord Lyon-recognised chief.

Where was the Home family seat?

Hume Castle in Berwickshire, now a scheduled monument.
