Many Scottish surnames begin with Mac. “Mac” is the old Scottish word for “Son of”, so MacDonald, because Donald is very common first name.
The Scottish wear kilts. These kilts have different colours. Kilts show your family’s colours. MacDonald’s kilt is red and green. If we think of Scottish music, we usually think of bagpipes. The sport of golf originated in Scotland.
