I happened to see a link on Facebook where a group of Macs got together for a regatta (see link & photo below)...

...and it got me wondering... what shall we call a group of MacGregors? With crows it's a 'murder', with ants it's a colony, and of course there are many others. What shall we have for Macs?

Given the newly available burgee for the Macs... (see link below)...

...perhaps we should go off what Puffins are called (see below)?

I'm not sure 'colony' quite suits... it's not nearly silly enough. Perhaps call it a Circus of Macs? ...or a Puffinry of Macs? ... a raft?

How about a “beak” of Macs?

"A Raft" would work if they were.....rafted.

I dunno... I'm really leaning towards a "Circus of Macs"!

Everyone always says I’ve got the skills to be a clown.

Might I suggest . . .

"A versatility of Macgregors".

A Mod of Macs?

A traditional Scottish clan gathering is often referred to as a "Highland Games" or more broadly, a "clan gathering".
From Google….Here's a more detailed explanation:
Highland Games:
While sometimes used to refer to only the athletic competitions, "Highland Games" can also encompass the broader clan gathering, including parades, music, dancing, and cultural events.
Clan Gatherings:
These are events where members of a particular clan (or people affiliated with the clan) come together to celebrate their shared heritage, culture, and traditions.

In Scots Gaelic, a gathering is called "coinneachadh" (pronounced roughly as "kuhn-yak-uh") means "gathering," "meeting," "assembling," or "coming together"
A more common familiar word would be he word "cèilidh" (pronounced roughly as "kay-lee") is another word that often refers to a social gathering in Scottish culture, particularly one involving music, dancing, and storytelling

So maybe a “MacGregor Clan Ceilidh or Kay-lee”?
(But given the propensity for Scott’s to get together we could get a really interesting collection of people together in kilts looking for a good caber toss, hammer throw, and stone put, along with Highland dancing, bagpipe music, and ….. well ya’ll get the idea. )
