Alasdair Gray (1934-2019) was a Scottish artist and writer educated at the Glasgow School of Art. His most famous work was his genre-bending novel titled 'Lanark: A Life in Four Books,' which was first published in 1981. In 2020, a parliamentary action moved that 'Gray Day' should be celebrated annually on the 25th of February in honour of the author. 2021 marked the inaugural celebration of Gray Day, with a special Gray Day broadcast being released on Youtube, featuring readings from Lanark, interviews, and music.
A lot more unique and less over the top than Alexander.

This is one of my favorite names, it will definitely be part of my future son's name. I love this name with the nickname Dair, as Dair reminds me of the word Dare, and well, it sounds daring and makes a cute nickname!
I love the name Alasdair. I think it is very underused. I think of it as being high on the socioeconomic ladder yet still very approachable. I will definitely include this name some how into my possible future son's name.
