    Hummel, eh? There is a song from Hamburg about a Hummel who did something daring during a flood, if I recall. (The name recurs in the chorus, recalling the spectators’ cheering of his deed.)
    However the hero appears to have been a visitor from much further south. I used to know a Hummel (sadly now deceased) who came from southern Germany.
    Certainly nobody will shoot you for wearing Buchanan, Micah.
    But there are plenty more tartans you might like to try. There is one in the colours of the German flag, named Germany, several American setts alluding to German ancestry, and one called Coburg which was the district tartan for Germany for well over a century.
    Then there is always Stewart. I see you have one in Stewart Hunting.
    Regards,
    Mike
