📖 Sobre Alasdair

Alasdair é a forma gaélica escocesa de Alexandre, do grego Alexandros, que significa "defensor do povo." Entrou na cultura gaélica através dos reis escoceses medievais Alexandre I, II e III, enraizando-se profundamente na cultura dos clãs das Terras Altas — especialmente o Clã MacDonald (Mac Alasdair). Mantém uma identidade marcadamente escocesa e continua popular na Escócia e na diáspora.
