McDonald

McDonald is a boy's name of Scottish origin. Traditionally a last name, it derives from the Scottish Gaelic name MacDhòmhnaill, which means "son of Donald" and "son of the world ruler." Although the name McDonald is today associated with the burger restaurant, the Donald clan was a significant family in the Scottish Highlands for centuries. In more recent history, Sir John Macdonald emigrated from Scotland in the 19th century and became Canada's first prime minister in 1857. McDonald is an excellent name choice if you want to pay homage to your Scottish roots. Baby will have a rich heritage and plenty of namesakes to be proud of.
