If speaking of use as the main clan tartan today then there are two probably contenders: MacKintosh and MacDougall but even those associations are open to debate.
There are a number of non-standard tartans associated with clans today that have a connection them in the C18th. The MacDonalds have more than their fair share : Borrodale, Glenaladale, Kingsburgh, Lord of the Isles Red and Green setts. Others include: the Red Campbell setts, MacQuarrie and Murray of Tullidardine.
