Scottish last names

Lists of surnames organized by letter, ethnicity and more.

For people who want to trace their family roots, one of the best places to look for clues is your surname. Every culture has a different naming convention. If you are of Scottish origin, your name may indicate what clan you belong to, your family’s trade, or your place of origin. However, your last name is just scratching the surface of your lineage in Scotland. Some of the most common surnames in Scotland’s registers actually come from the same family lineage but have different spellings.

Scottish surnames started to be used occasionally between the 10th and 12th centuries after the Normans introduced them in the year 1066. But the frequency of use increased between the 18th and the 19th centuries. #babynames #names #coolbabynames #babyboynames #babygirlnames
