County Laois crest.
Toponomastica: L'attuale nome Laois (da pronunciare nella nostra lingua lish) è il nome gaelico di quella che una volta era la Queen's county ("contea della regina"), e significa letteralmente "chiesa nei pressi della quercia".
Da notare che anche le forme anglicizzate Laoighis e Leix sono corrette.
Araldica civica
Lo stemma del Laois è uno scudo dorato con un nastro contenente vari elementi distintivi.
- la V rossa capovolta (chevronels): rappresenta la catena montuosa delle Slieve Bloom Mountains e la Rock of Dunamaise, mentre i simboli bianchi in essa contenuti rappresentano le 7 tribù antiche locali principali.
- le due sfere ondulate (fountains): rappresentano i due fiumi principali della contea, il Nore e il Barrow e i due colori tradizionali e sportivi della contea (bianco-blu)
- il leone: l'animale su sfondo dorato era l'emblema degli antichi King of Laois, gli Ó Mordha.
Il nastro invece riporta il motto in gaelico "L bÁirt leis an bpobal" che significa "Insieme con il Popolo".

Arms of County Kilkenny, Ireland: Ermine, a fess party per pale, dexter sable three garbs argent, sinister quarterly 1st and 4th: argent, 2nd and 3rd: gules a fret or. Text per www.heraldry-wiki.com[1]: The fess contains the arms of two families, one Gaelic, the other Norman, thereby signifying the historic and harmonious fusion of these two great Irish traditions within the County. The silver garbs or sheaves on a black field represent Dermot MacMorrough, King of Leinster (Burke, Sir Bernard, The General Armory, London, 1884, p.645, gives the arms of "Mac Morogh, King of Leinster ... who surrendered his sovereignty to King Henry II of England in 1172" as Sable, three garbs or) while the gold fret on red is associated with the family of Den or de la Denn who, according to Samuel Lewis, were possessed of the Castle of Grenan near Thomastown. (See: Carrigan's History and Antiquities of the Diocese of Ossory and entitled "The Dens of Grenan"[2])
