Armiger
An armiger is a person entitled to use a coat of arms. Such a person is said to be armigerous.
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
The term "armiger" is well-defined only within jurisdictions (such as England and Wales, Canada and Spain) where heraldry is regulated by the state or heraldic body (such as the College of Arms in England), since anyone may use any coat of arms in jurisdictions, such as the United States, which lack regulated heraldry.

A person can be so entitled either by descent from a person with a right to bear a coat of arms, or by virtue of a grant of arms to him or herself.
