What is your tartan? What is your favorite?

*grrrrr at the Keith***
lol

Clan Gunn here... I am a Wilson which is a sept of Gunn. The origin of the name Gunn is Norwegian. The word "Gunni" in the Old Norwegian language means "War" or "Battle".
For those unfamiliar about Clan Gunn and Clan Keith...these 2 clans feuded for a LONG time (over 500 years) and it wasn't until 1978 that a treaty was finally signed.
I think it is admirable and honorable for Tartanraven to get a kilt in the Gunn Ancient tartan.
This act of kinship has given me an idea for my next kilt and I will be purchasing a Keith tartan to also commemorate the treaty between the clans.
Thanks Tartanraven! If you would like...I'll send you pictures of my Gunn Modern..it's a bit brighter than the ancient.

My Tartans: Campbell and Stuart. (There is a possibility that there is a MacGregor link through my great, great grandmother). However, I don't have a kilt in any of those tartans...yet.

As for my favourite tartan...that's hard...I have always had a love for both the MacGregor and Douglas Modern Tartans.

Ya know ol' Rob Roy himself took Campbell as an alias. Which of course was probably quite naturally considering his wife was a Campbell...
