Calgary in Alberta, Canada was named after a settlement in which country?

Calgary is the largest city in the Canadian province of Alberta and the third-largest city in Canada. It lies at the confluence of the Bow River and the Elbow River in the transitional area between the Rocky Mountain Foothills and the Canadian Prairies, about 80 km (50 miles) east of the front ranges of the Canadian Rockies, roughly 299 km (186 miles) south of Edmonton, the provincial capital, and approximately 240 km (150 miles) north of the Canada–United States border.

In 1875, this site on the two rivers became a post of the North-West Mounted Police (NWMP). For a while, the new post lacked an official name and so the advice of Colonel James Macleod (Commissioner of the NWMP 1876 – 1880) was sought: he suggested that its name be Fort Calgary

James Macleod had visited Calgary Bay on the Isle of Mull, Scotland, where his sister's relatives through marriage owned a small castle named Calgary House, built in 1817 and now called Calgary Castle. The name “Calgary” comes from the Gaelic, “Cala-ghearridh,” meaning “Beach (or harbour) of the meadow (or pasture).” Macleod was entranced with the area. So, he suggested that "Calgary" would be a good choice. Some people believe that the valley of the Bow and Elbow rivers resembled the countryside of the Isle of Mull, and that Macleod was struck by the similarity.
