The origin of the name" MacInnes" is an anglicized form of Gaelic Mac Aonghuis, a patronymic from the particular name Aonghus, one of the most ancient names among the Gael. In the genitive the" g" of this word is pronounced, and the name is left with the soundMacAon'es or Maclnnes. Who this Angus was, is unknown. The name Maclnnes could also mean" the Son of the Island." Before the defeat of the Lord of the Islands and the dissipation of the clans by King Alexander II, a single coalition, the Siol Gillivray, appears to have included the MacGillivrays, Maclnneses, MacEacherns, and MacMasters.
Clan Maclnnes had its headquarters in the heart of Morven, and at the head of Loch Aline, which winds down into the hills from the Sound of Mull, the ruin of an old square palace is still refocused out as the ancient seat of the chiefs. Kinlochaline was within a short distance of Ardtornish, on the Sound of Mull itself, one of the main seats of the Lords of the Islands, and the Maclnneses were presumably, thus, nearly confederated with and subject to these autocrats.
