Historical Significance

The Akins Tartan is linked to the Akins family, a name believed to have originated from the same root as the surname Aitken, derived from the diminutive of Adam. The Akins name has a significant presence in Scottish and Irish history, particularly in the Lowlands of Scotland. Over time, members of the Akins family became well-known for their involvement in various trades, agriculture, and contributions to their local communities. Although not a Highland clan in the traditional sense, the Akins family has always maintained a deep connection to Scottish heritage. This tartan embodies that connection and the family's enduring pride in their ancestry.
