What does the name “Robert the Bruce” mean?
“Robert the Bruce” actually refers to Robert I of Scotland, born Robert de Brus. The name “Bruce” derives from the family’s ancestral lands in Brix, Normandy (modern-day France), known as “de Brus.” His family was one of the most powerful in Scotland, and his legacy, particularly his role in the Wars of Scottish Independence, cemented his name in history.
