I like Heather (for obvious reasons)

I think Heather is too modern.
Are there more Scots names that would be appropriate?

Well since I only put in the link on my third edit I'll repeat it here-subsite for scottish baby name (note ads on this site are pretty obviously trying to plant spyware):

Thanks for the help! I think she's going to be Margaret. It suits her, and my protagonist, who's taken up residence in a corner of my brain and made himself at home since I started this manuscript, is nodding sagely and agreeing that's her name.
(Heather is lovely, but I don't think it was in use in the 18th century.)

I like Margaret - plus there are like a million nicknames people could call her if they were close.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"
Coming in late, Margaret's good, but Janet is a good classic Scottish name (unless I'm wrong about the time it was in use ... which is always a possibility).
