The possible Crickmore Coat of arms
Although a coat of arms has been attributed to the Crickmore by a firm which seeks to attach such honours to every name, the arms concerned were awarded to a Cricktot in 1410 - no link can be established, and it is very unlikely that this referred to the Crickmore family; nonetheless, it is possible.

The origin of the name is obscure.
The first certain records occur in two groups, one in the Waveney valley and the other a few miles south of Norwich, and the Crickmores spread out from there, although there is at least one Crakemore in Yorkshire in the fourteenth century - but no positive link with the Norfolk Crickmores.
There are several ways of spelling this name. They include Crickmer, Crickmay, Crickmore and sometimes Creekmore. For simplicity the name Crickmore has been used throughout instead of the variations
