Symbolism of the Weekes Crest

The Weekes coat of arms features a striking ermine field adorned with three black battle axes. In heraldry, ermine symbolizes dignity and honour, while the black color represents constancy, wisdom, and steadfast resolve. The battle axes are powerful martial symbols that convey courage, readiness, and a family heritage deeply connected to service and defence.

Origin of the Weekes name

The surname Weekes is of English origin, deriving from the Old English term wic, which refers to an outlying settlement, farmstead, or dairy farm. Variations such as Weeks and Weekes appear throughout historical records, with spellings differing by region and era. The name is established in areas like Devon and Sussex, where various family branches have been documented. Notably, Francis Weekes of Devon, from the early 17th century, is associated with the heraldic coat of arms featuring three black battle axes.
