Many pubs in England are called the Eagle and Child, and take their name from the crest of the Stanley family. (The original Stanley Cup, awarded annually to the National Hockey League playoff winner, was donated in 1892 by Frederick Arthur Stanley, Baron Stanley of Preston, 16th Earl of Derby, then Governor General of Canada.)

From Wikipedia; Many legends exist about the origin of the eagle and child crest of the Stanleys which was probably taken from the crest of the Lathoms. One account tells of a Sir Thomas Lathom who greatly desired a male heir, but his wife was advanced in years and their only child was a daughter.

One day, he and his wife were walking in Tarlescough Woods, a wild section of his estate when they heard an infant crying. Servants were sent to investigate and they returned with a young male child which they had found lying in the grass below an eagle's eyrie.
