In my case ruminative stuff like that was far from my mind... I just went to a local fabric shop and bought some cloth that was passably tartan-like.
My usual current kilt is Isle Of Skye which I likewise got simply because I thought it looked nice.
Only in the last ten years or so have I learned more about my family history and become interested in the idea of getting a kilt that reflects it, say Stewart or Cavan or Cornwall.
