Nemo me impune lacessit Nemo me impune lacessit was the Latin motto of the Royal Stuart dynasty of Scotland from at least the reign of James VI when it appeared on the reverse side of merk coins minted in 1578 and 1580. It is the adopted motto of the Order of the Thistle and of three Scottish regiments of the British Army. The motto also appears, in conjunction with the collar of the Order of the Thistle, in later versions of the Royal coat of arms of the Kingdom of Scotland and subsequently in the version of the Royal coat of arms of the United Kingdom used in Scotland. It means "No one "cuts" (attacks/assails) me with impunity", and has been loosely rendered in Scots as "Wha daur meddle wi me?" (in Scottish Gaelic "Cha togar m' fhearg gun dìoladh", ] ). It is also alternatively translated into English as "No one can harm me unpunished".

House of Stuart The House of Stuart, originally Stewart and, in Gaelic, Stiùbhart , was a European royal house that originated in Scotland. The dynasty's patrilineal Breton ancestors had held the office of High Steward of Scotland since the 12th century, after arriving by way of Norman England. The royal Stewart line was founded by Robert II, and they were Kings and Queens of Scots from the late 14th century until the union with England in 1707. Mary, Queen of Scots, was brought up in France, where she adopted the French spelling of the name, "Stuart". Her son, James VI of Scotland, inherited the thrones of England and Ireland upon the death of Elizabeth I in 1603. Except for the period of the Commonwealth, 1649–1660, the Stuarts were monarchs of the British Isles and its growing empire, until the death of Queen Anne in 1714.

Mullaney Mullaney is a surname of Irish origin (from Connacht). It is an Anglicised form of the Gaelic "Ó Maoil Sheanaigh" meaning "descendant of "Maoilsheanaigh"". The Gaelic personal name "Maoilsheanaigh" means "devotee of (Saint) "Seanach"" and the personal name "Seanach" is made up of the element sean meaning "ancient", "old". Many spellings of Connacht named omit the "Sh" and in consequence one theory is that "Mullaney" may be an Anglicisation of "Ó Maoileanaigh" "descendant of "Maoileanach"". The personal name "Maoileanach" means "chief of the marsh". An Ulster family, unrelated to the Connacht family, bore the name "Ó Maoileanaigh".
