The New Orleans Saints’ logo features the fleur-de-lis, a stylized lily that has long been associated with French royalty and heritage. Chosen when the team was founded in 1967, the logo reflects New Orleans’ deep French and Catholic roots. The fleur-de-lis was historically used in heraldry and royal emblems, symbolizing purity, strength, and unity. In Louisiana, it also appears on state flags and city emblems, making it a natural and culturally meaningful choice for the team. Over the years, the Saints have kept the fleur-de-lis as their primary symbol, occasionally updating its design with minor color or texture changes. Today, it remains a proud emblem of both the football team and the city’s identity, representing resilience, community, and tradition.
