...if you go to google and type in FID DEF you will find the answer very quickly......



FID:DEF stood for FIDEI DEFENSOR, and was originally a title bestowed on Henry VIII by the Pope prior to the Anglican Schism. Subsequent monarchs liked the sound of the title and used it - much to the Vatican's disapproval - as a reminder on the coinage that he or she was the head of the Church of England.

It's short for Fidei Defensor which is Latin for 'Defender of the Faith'.
Just to add to auntieberties answer, 'fidei defensor' is Latin for 'defender of the faith'.
