Scottish names!

[GladLurker]

I'm pregnant and I LOVE the name Malcolm. I think its cool and added bonus that its Scottish. My husband and everyone hates Malcolm however. I may still use it.

Any suggestions for like wise names (not Hamish) or good Scottish names? Duncan, Rory and Andrew have been ruled out by husband.

Fergus
Douglas

Glen
Duncan
Alastair
Robert
Bruce
Logan

My daughter is Isla.

I really liked Leith (pronounced Layth) for a boy since hearing it on Reign, so I think it's Scottish!

Maybe OP will come back and let us know what she thinks?

Aiden

Cullen
Prentice
Kerr
For boys
Isla
Maer
Kirsty
For girls

I really like Malcolm too! Malc or Malky/Malcy (sp?) make cute nicknames. I think it's due a comeback, you're just ahead of the curve 😁

Stuart, angus, Callum, Euan,

Donald

Hamish would have been on my list but SIL used it for her dog hah. I’m Scottish, I like Malcolm and Duncan, both strong names, though I don’t like the shortened “dunc “ and Malcy is less appealing. Maybe your husband will come around, mind did to some of his previous vetos.

ive seen callum come up a few times, it’s a good name, also Cameron is a good name, first boy I ever “fancied” though I wasn’t sure what fancying was, I liked that he had a grey tooth and asthma

I think that name will be in the muck for many years to come.

Laith is an Arabic name. Leith is 'Leeth'.

Magnus
Ewan
James
Alexander
Malcolm
Mackenzie
Fraser
Brodie
Lachlan

I really wanted to call my son Angus but it didn't work with our surname and I was gutted.

Alistair
Alexander
Blair
Brodie
Callum
Cameron
Fergus
Iain
James
Lachlan
Logan
Murdo
Murray
Moray
Robert
Struan

Archie - I am biased as it’s my DS’s name. But it’s definitely a Scottish name.

Mackenzie/Mckenzie
Dont be put off by girls having the name because it literally means SON of the Fair One.

Fraser, Callum, Cameron, Harris, Aaron. Lots of great names suggested here.

Malcolm
Colin
Bruce
Lyle
Fergus
Dougal
Angus

Cormac

Angus
Fergus
stuart
Iain
Cameron
Struan
Finlay
Ruardidh

Ruaridh is nice but be prepared for various spellings and mis-spellings.
Iain seems a bit dated.

My favourites are Murray, Glen and Lewis.

A friend has a little Odin.

Rory
Cameron
Euan
Logan
Ross
Or go really literal with Scott

Duncan
