Glengarry and Argyll/Argyle

[macwilkin]

As for Argyll/Argyle? The place name and jacket is Argyll and the hose pattern is usually referred to as Argyle.

Argyle is actually the old way of spelling Argyll; one set of my great-great grandparents' tombstones in Iowa lists their birthplace as "Argyle, Scotland".

True, that is an archaic Anglicisation of Earra Ghàidheal.
I was just referring to the usage today concerning the duds in question.
