Joey to use your example here, and your situation as mentioned above the sone here even though he was born on japanese soil (or anywhere else) it would be understandable for him to wear a kilt if invited to an event by the UN however if one of his great grandparents was Scottish and none of his family since had a direct link to Scotland 99% of the population are going to think its strange for this japanese person to turn up to a UN White tie event in a kilt.
You said your mum was a Murray, was she born over here?
The hielan' man he wears the kilt, even when it's snowin';
He kens na where the wind comes frae,
But he kens fine where its goin'.
