Find Your Clan or Tartan

Visit our clan pages and explore your roots where you can search by name, colour or region.

Top tips:

• Every clan has many septs and other names associated with it – these are listed on the clan pages

• The sound of a name is generally more important than the spelling, as standardised spelling is a fairly recent development

• Many believe that Mac is Scottish and Mc is Irish but in reality this is simply another spelling variation or abbreviation in ancient records

• You might have a clan or district (regional) connection

What of our Celtic cousins?

The Celtic nations include Scotland, Ireland, Wales, Cornwall, Isle of Man and Brittany. There are tartans associated with all of these nations and all of our products can be made in any one of these tartans.

If you need some help and advice finding your tartan our Customer Service team offers a genuine Scottish welcome. We also offer Clan Consultations & Measuring Appointments Virtually via video call, in person at our Edinburgh store, from our US base in Albany, NY and pop up events around the USA and Canada.

Clan of the Month

Every month we choose a clan and celebrate their history, castles, famous faces and an interview or two with interesting people from the clan or society. We always welcome your input, so if it is your clans turn and you have stories to share let us know. It is so intriguing to hear the journey of Scots overseas and how they ended up there, along with how you continue to celebrate your heritage in so many different ways.
