The two crowns on the diocesan arms thus have a dual meaning. First, the closed royal crown in the first quarter is the crown of a king, and thus suggests the name of Kings County. The coronet in the second quarter is more fitted for a consort, and thus suggests the name of Queens County. However, for Catholics, the terms “King” and “Queen” also bring to mind Christ the King, and the Blessed Virgin Mary, who is Queen of Heaven. This idea is emphasized by the two roundels found beneath the two crowns, because a roundel barry wavy argent and azure is called a fountain, and both Jesus and Mary are regarded by Catholics as founts of grace and mercy. | The two crowns on the diocesan arms thus have a dual meaning.

The inescutcheon with the scallop shell also has a double meaning. The first Catholic church built on Long Island was dedicated to St. James, and it eventually became the present cathedral of the Diocese of Brooklyn | The inescutcheon with the scallop shell also has a double meaning. The first Catholic church built on Long Island was dedicated to St. James, and it eventually became the present cathedral of the Diocese of Brooklyn - and the symbol of St. James is the scallop shell. Furthermore, one of the original names for Long island in the language of the native Lenape-speaking people was Sewanhacky, which means “Land of seashells.” | ||
