I often get asked about family tartans.
You can easily check if there's a tartan associated with your family name. Check out the website of the Scottish Register of Tartans. They have a search feature - just put your name in and find out if there's a tartan for you. Try it here.
I tend to borrow a Sinclair tartan when attending the odd Burns night etc (and they are very odd indeed). My paternal grandmother was a Sinclair. Fascinating stuff!
