Either is acceptable
I always spell it fleur de lys
More commonly Lis
Both are correct but I think the first one is more commonly used.
Question Author
thank you Emeritus - I put Fleur de Lys, but then had my doubts!
As emeritus rightly states either is acceptable according to Chambers.
My French dictionary only gives Lis for lily so I would think that Fleur de Lis is the correct spelling.
