Shakespeare did apply for a coat of arms in October of 1596. But not William Shakespeare, the playwright. It was his father John Shakespeare who made the application although no doubt it was William who was the big push behind it. The application has the word "player" written on it which means actor, and suggests that although the application was in the name of John, it was William who was really applying, since he stood to inherit the grant of arms as eldest son.

Shakespeare's only son who died in 1596 was named Hamnet. He was born in 1585 and passed away at the age of 11, likely due to the plague. Hamnet's death had a profound impact on Shakespeare, and it is believed to have influenced some of his later works.
