Origin/meaning

The blue symbolises faith, goodwill and the sea; gold, life-giving light, the ultimate truth and the success that can be achieved through dedicated work. Blue and gold also refer to Hiiumaa as the day island, indicating the place of origin of the Tänavsuu family. The cornflower represents Estonianness, the anchor symbolises the family's long association with seafaring. The eagle wings symbolise strength, the aspiration to the heights of knowledge.
