Meaning of name Ruairi is: Scottish cognate of RUAIDHRÍ

Ruairi says: Its origin is Irish, easily proven by the fact that it is in the Gaelic language, originating in Ireland! Scotland was invaded by the Irish and Old Irish (as now known) became the spoken language of the conquered territories (more or less the western half of Scotland) which explains the affinity between Ireland and Scotland, the Irish and Scottish people. The name means Red haired king. Rua = Red, Rí = king. In Irish spelling, the vowels on either side of a consonant must match (narrow with narrow i,e OR wide with wide a,o,u) thus the need for the 'i' before the second r. Ruairí.
Ruairi Boyce says: Ruairi is not a Scottish name, but Irish. It's meaning is Red King. Rua translated from Irish is Red, Rí translated meaning King.
