The originator of Clan Melville called his manor "Mala Ville" -- hence, the name `Melville'

The Melvilles are a Lothian family, who were found in Angus in the 12th Century. After the family died out, the Barony of Melville passed into the family of Clan Ross of Halkhead

Clan Melville was closely associated with Clan Oliphant. One tartan is known under the trademark of "Oliphant and Melville."
