What was the Roman name for Scotland?

one of the few places in the known Roman world they could not conquer, they even lost a legion there, Hadrian's wall was built to keep the inhabitants at bay.

There's a lovely song called Caledonia, written by Dougie Maclean.

Scotland takes its name from an Irish tribe, known as scotti, raiders in Latin. They left Ireland and settled on the west coast of Scotland

Makes you proud to be Scottish 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿❤️
