Fleur-De-Lis

Fleurs-de-lis crossed the Atlantic along with Europeans going to the New World, especially with French settlers, and these are now used for the flags of Quebec, Nova Scotia, Detroit and elsewhere. The Acadiana region and various cities in southern Louisiana, such as New Orleans and Baton Rouge, also use the fleur-de-lis. So do several places whose name came from one of the French King Louis: amongst them, Louisville, Kentucky and St. Louis, Missouri where the three-petalled symbol also denotes the convergence of three rivers (the Mississippi, Missouri and Illinois).
