What makes a name Scottish?

Scottish names pair rugged, Gaelic-rooted given names (Hamish, Callum, Isla, Eilidh) with proud clan surnames — many starting with Mac ('son of') like MacDonald, MacKenzie, and Campbell. They carry the feel of the Highlands: heather, lochs, and ancient clans. The vibe is sturdy, romantic, and unmistakably Scottish.
