Conclusion: Scottish lowlands culture begins with Nairn and Rennie at 46%, followed by Lillie at 37% and Noël at 31%. This is followed by a cultural bandgap. Recovery begins at 25% with Baillie, Balios, Barrie, Bell, Blair and Brisbane. They peak culturally at 12% before declining through to <1%.
Scot lowlands clans are E linguistic group like Picts, Britons, even Anglosaxons. If Mac-/Mc- prefix hadn't inflicted such change on Highland Scots they would also be part of the E linguistic Group.
Manannan Mac Lir has a lot to answer for.
