<p>Ruairidh is a traditional Scottish Gaelic masculine name, a variant of Rory. It derives from the Gaelic elements 'ruadh' meaning 'red' and 'rí' meaning 'king,' essentially translating to 'red king' or 'red-haired king.' The name has been used in Gaelic-speaking regions of Scotland for centuries, particularly in the Highlands and Western Isles. While relatively uncommon outside of Scotland, Ruairidh has maintained steady popularity within Scottish communities. The pronunciation may challenge non-Gaelic speakers, as it's typically pronounced 'ROO-ree' or 'ROO-uh-ree.' In recent years, as parents seek names with cultural heritage and distinctive character, Ruairidh has seen increased interest among Scottish diaspora worldwide.</p>
