On an english/French coat of arms, there are only lions not leopards. As French was the language of English government for a few centuries after the Norman Conquest of 1066, and in a French Blazon a lion, without further description, is always rampant; a lion passant guardant - one that is walking forward and facing outward toward the viewer - is always called a léopard. A lion rampant guardant is a léopard lionné, and one passant but with its head in profile is a lion léopardé. The terms describe the animal's posture, not his species. Whatever the beast is called, the heraldic lion or leopard should always have at least a hint of a mane.
