Vive ut vivas (Live that you may have life)

Falconer is an old surname of the Mearns, the historic county of Kincardineshire. The Falconers of Halkerton claimed descent from Ranulph, falconer to King William the Lion about 1200, who named his lands there Hawkerton after his office. Sir Alexander Falconer of Halkerton was created Lord Falconer of Halkerton on 20 December 1646, and in 1778 Anthony Adrian, ninth Lord Falconer, inherited the Earldom of Kintore.

Crest & Motto

Clan Falconer Crest Badge & Motto

The motto of Clan Falconer is Vive ut vivas (Live that you may have life). It appears on the Clan Falconer 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.
