    I'm afraid my Latin stalls at trying to translate "kilt", let alone adding the ed.

    'In Kilted Fellowship' sounds fine to me. Would have preferred something different to 'Fellowship' though.
    I did come up with a few alternatives today, but looking at them now I feel like cringing...glad I didn't post them. Well, maybe one...

    I like "By Choice - Not Blood"...we are referring to the GROUP, not the wearing of the kilt.
    Fellowship, to me, sounds like the Ladies Tea Society or something.
    However, both kilt and fellwship DO sound good in Latin(!):

    kilt
    subligaculum -i n. [a loincloth , kilt].
    subligar -aris n. [a loincloth , kilt].

    fellowship
    communitas -atis f.[community , fellowship; sense of fellowship, affability].
    societas -atis f. [partnership , fellowship, association, alliance].
