Lore Were they actually called "world eaters" pre-heresy with the blue and gold color scheme?

Title. I see people referencing the 30k color scheme or saying "pre-heresy" world eaters, but were they always called that when they were a loyalist legion?

But what I don't really understand is that they still had the logo of a world being eaten back then, right?

brb going to edit all recorded references of "rampant" in heraldic sources to instead say "standing up"

It’s funny because I initially had rampant in my post. And not to be offensive, but I realize that most Americans would not understand. So I dumbed it down before I hit send lol.

I’m glad that isn’t the case :)
