The old saying my MIL uses in regards to "Who is a Cajun?" would be an appropriate answer:

"By the blood, by the ring and by the back door."

This could be fun and pokes my sense of humor.

Tartan:

Brown, Mum, Grandad, GGdad, all Browns
MacMillan, Brown is a sept of the MacMillan Clan
Lamont, Also claims the Browns
Lochaber District, The Browns are asscoiated with the MacMillans in that area originally.
Campbell By marriage
US Army I am a veteran
German National Dad's side
Dutch National Gmum's side
Irish National Dad's side again
Welsh National Wife's GGdad
Holyrood Grandad Walter Brown was a Deacon in the church. Holyrood Abby has as one of the founders a Walterus Brown. (coincidence? I think not! )


It's easy to find tartans to enjoy!
Personally I like tartans I can associate with.(Even if I have to play it fast and loose)
If someone wants to wear a tartan because they enjoy the look, I'd say go for it. (But I would at a minimum expect the wearer to be able to name the tartan.)
