I use a simple green swissgear messenger bag from Target that was $25. It's rectangular shape and the swiss army logo make it masculine looking.

To give a direct answer to your question. From my knowledge and experience - no.
But I consider the kilt as a modern garment and as such any shoulder bag that you would consider using with a pair of jeans would work with a casual kilt; any shoulder bag that you would consider using with a sport-coat or suit would work with a dressy kilt.
I don't think that any shoulder bag should be used with a formal kilt. I would then load all the stuff in an appropriate colored stroller

LOL
I don't think he'll be running errands and spending time at the park with the wee one in a Montrose Doublet, or even PC for that matter!

I use this Warrior bag when the kilt is a wee to small for the extra gear. After all if it's good enough for Jack Bauer it's good enough for me!

You already have the confidence to wear a kilt on a regular basis, a large bag should not be an issue, particularly one with as much "street cred" as a messenger bag.

Fo carrying around my school stuff, I use a big bag my dad got at some computer trade show. It's big, black, and masculine looking, and has lots of pockets and things inside to hold pencils, calculator, textbooks, etc.
You also could probably get a messenger bag with a suitably masculine logo or phrase from Cafépress.com
