I would even tentatively wager that there is a considerable difference between a Lowlander and someone from the Hebrides.
I dont believe there is that much differance between a lowlander and a highlander these days, especially with cross migraiton that has been prevalent since the industrial revalution. Most scots in glasgow have highland last names. There is little differance in culture aswell.
