Thread Name: Historical basis for Anachie Gordon
Subject: RE: Historical basis for Anachie Gordon
The name doesn't sound right, if it was derived from a place - the usual form would have been "Gordon of Auchanachie". I can't think of any other exception to that order in traditional Scottish sources. It would be like referring to the Duke of Edinburgh as "Edinburgh Duke".
