  • Of that Ilk est un terme utilisé par la Pairie d’Écosse pour montrer le titre de chef de clan dans certains Clan Écossais. Le terme "of that ilk" veut dire "du même [nom]", il est utilisé pour éviter la répétition dans le titre d'une personne. Historiquement, il était coutume dans le système féodal Écossais pour le laird d'un manoir, d'inscrire le nom de son fief dans son titre.Dans un certain nombre de cas, le nom du clan a été dérivé du nom du fief, la création d'une répétition (par exemple, "Lord Anstruther de Anstrusther", ou même ""), donc pour la commodité a été créé le terme "of that Ilk", (donc, "Anstryther of that Ilk" ou "MacLachlan of that Ilk"). De même pour les clans comprenant plusieurs branches cadettes, les dirigeants de ces branches ont une succession de noms distincts du nom du clan, laissant le terme "Of that Ilk" le chef du clan entier. Ainsi Mackenzie, dans son livre Observ. Laws & Customs of Nations, se réfère à une décision de Jacques VI "entre Blair of that Ilk, et Blair de Balthaiock", deux lairds du Clan Blair. (fr)
  • "Of that Ilk" is a term used in the Scottish nobility to denote a clan chieftain in some Scottish clans. The term of that ilk means "of the same [name]", and is used to avoid repetition in a person's title. Historically, it was customary in the Scottish feudal system for the laird of a manor to include the name of his fief in his title; Thus, in Robert Louis Stevenson's novel Kidnapped, the protagonist—after discovering he was the new laird of his (impoverished) manor—later introduced himself as "David Balfour, of Shaws". However, in a number of cases, the clan name was derived from the name of the fief, creating a repetition (such as, "Lord Anstruther of Anstruther", or even "Lachlan Maclachlan of Maclachlan"); for convenience, this was eliminated with the term of that Ilk (therefore, "Anstruther of that Ilk", or "MacLachlan of that Ilk"). Where a large clan of this type has one or more cadet branches, the leaders of those branches would have an estate name distinct from the clan name, leaving the term "of that Ilk" to denote the overall clan chieftain. Thus Mackenzie, in his Observ. Laws & Customs of Nations, refers to a decision of James VI "betwixt Blair of that ilk, and Blair of Balthaiock", two lairds of the now-defunct Clan Blair. (en)
