This is unrelated to the Scots name. It derives from the people calling Trantor Hame for "home". 4.249.3.119 (talk) 19:51, 25 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Recently, I've seen at least four cases of vandalism against this article. May I suggest semi-protecting the title? MammonI.Dumah (talk) 08:56, 13 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Is it okay if I add a fictional character into the page? The character is a wolf I think Hamish McDuff or something from wolves of the beyond.

In sorry for being stupid is it possible to put Hamish from wolves of the beyond into animals? AnonymousMeh (talk) 21:34, 29 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

As I understand it this name also originates in Yiddish, and there is an origin in the Middle East and India, no? Separate threads, as far as I'm aware, but not a uniquely Scottish name?

Or maybe this wiki is focused on the English language sources and it wouldn't be appropriate to mention that?
