		In 1910, Sir Ian's great-grandfather, Alexander, obtained a decree of the Court of Session in an action of Declarator which proved that Alexander's grandfather, Alexander William Robert Macdonald of Sleat, was indeed the eldest lawful son of the 3rd Lord Macdonald.
		Although by bardic tradition, the Chiefs of Sleat were in their own country always referred to in Gaelic as "Nan Eilean" (of the Isles), the Lord Lyon could not allow this because HRH The Prince Charles carries the title Lord of the Isles.
		Sir Ian's chosen patronymic is "Mac Uisdein" (Son of Hugh) which relates back to the original Hugh of Sleat and the Lordship of the Isles.

	The Barony of MacDonald
		John MacDonald in 1469 gave a charter of the lands of Sleat on the Isle of Skye to his illegitimate half-brother Hugh, and Hugh’s direct descendant, the 8th Laird of Sleat, was in 1625 created a baronet as Sir Donald MacDonald of Sleat.
		In 1776 his direct descendant Sir Alexander MacDonald of Sleat, the 9th Baronet, was raised to the peerage as Baron MacDonald of Slate (note the spelling change).
		The result of this difference in law was that the two titles separated, the baronetcy descending through the eldest son, and the peerage title together with its territorial barony through the eldest surviving son born of the second marriage.
