Where Does The Name Dunlop Come From?

The name is now quite common in the United States & Canada, however the spelling has nearly returned to the original dialect of the Middle Ages, with variations such as Dalape, Dunlap, or Dunlape. All iron age strongholds were termed "Duns," and the second element is supposed to imply "the twisting or bending."

Dunlop House has had various transformations throughout the years, with the original manor established in 1066 by The Chief (Dunlop of Dunlop). Over the next 598 years, three further structures were constructed as the House of the Family Dunlop, with the second house completed about 1304 and the third in 1599, the remains of which still survive today. A picture of the home is included in William Wallace's book "Robert Burns & Mrs Dunlop, Volume One." Sir James Dunlop commissioned the fourth and present Dunlop House in Scottish Jacobean architecture in 1834.

What Clan Does Dunlop Tartan Belong To?

The Lord Lyon of Scotland does not formally acknowledge the Dunlop Family as a "Clan." Families joined "Clans" out of economic or military need. The Dunlops were a landed aristocratic family identified as an Armigerous (carrying a Coat of Arms) Family in references.

Clan Dunlop is an armigerous clan, which implies that it is registered with the Lord Lyon Court but does not currently have a chief recognised by the Lyon Court.

The name was pronounced similarly to Dulap or Delap. It was also spelled this manner at times. Neel Fitz Robert de Dullope in 1296 is an example of this pronunciation being written down as it was spoken. This translates as Neil, the son of (Fitz) Robert of Dunlop, who paid tribute to the Scottish revolutionary government that year. Later same year, as Nel de Dunlopp, he appeared as a witness at an inquest into the ownership of estates in Berwick. He was most likely the first possessor of Dunlop's coat of arms, which had a crimson two-headed eagle on a (silver) white ground.
