The name Killiecrankie is derived from the Gaelic root word coille, meaning a wood, coupled with 'crankie,' which refers to aspens; thus the phrase means 'wood of the aspens' (Matthews, 1972).
Johnson (1983) states it was later renamed after another (different) battle called Tranent Muir, East Lothian, fought in 1745 {which battle is usually known as the Battle of Prestonpans}. He suggests on stylistic reasons that the tune may be the surviving opening for a battle pibroch (see "Highland Battle, A"), although no other parts have come down. The tune, as "Keel Cranke" was published by Henry Playford in his 1700 collection of Scottish tunes (Original Scots Tunes), however, the earliest printing of the song appears to be in the Leyden Manuscript of c. 1692, according to John Glen (Early Scottish Melodies).
Glen further states: "That portion of ("Killiecrankie") which is sung to the chorus is still more ancient; it forms part of the tune called "My Mistres blush is bonny" (sic) in the Skene Manuscripts" (c. 1615). Glen dates the Leyden Manuscript by its inclusion of tunes referring to 'King James March to Ireland' and the "Watter (sic) of the Boyne," a reference to the Jacobite Wars.
As "Irish Gillycranky (The)" it is included in the Henry Atkinson manuscript of 1694/95. "Killiecrankie" was set for violin and continuo by William MacGibbon (1695-1756), and was printed by Oswald in his Caledonian Pocket Companion.
