A type of fish or possibly a heraldic term; extremely rare and possibly archaic or regional.
Uncertain; possibly from Old French combining 'beau' (fine) and a fish name, or a corrupted term. Documentation is scarce.
This word is so obscure it might be a regional dialect fish name or a heraldic term lost to time—medieval texts are full of one-off words for specific fish varieties that were locally important but never became standard.
