EVOLUTION AND BEGINNING OF THE STUART NAME: Stiubhartach, Stigweard, Steuhard, Steward, Stewart, Steuart, Stuart. Scotland's Royal family used both spellings of Stewart and Stuart as the family name. In Bonnie Galloway both spellings are acceptable for girls and boys. The royal race of Stewart, or Stuart, can boast a line of unbroken ancestry enqualed by few other families who have occupied the thrones of Europe. The origin of the name is of national interest. The History of the Family of Stewart, starting as Stiubhartach, begins before the invention of surnames, that were first used by the Normans in the 12th century. the ancestral origin of the Family is only partially known, but the Stewart name origin is clear. It is derived from the high office of Steward of the Royal Household. The Steward kept the books, managed the workers, the gardeners, the housekeepers, the man servants, the stables and made the purchases. He held the purse strings of the castle, and was involved in all the business of the Family. It is believed to have been first used as a surname by Walter, the 3rd of a family of Walters to occupy that hereditary office of Steward. A surname was a first name only, and that became very confusing to the churches who were trying to keep track of births, deaths, and marriages. Hence, a full name like - Walter Steward evolved. Walter is documented, and died in 1246. Different races, in the process of time, altered the name. It is recorded as Stewart (English), Steuart (French), and later as Stuart, by the Royal Family of Scotland. The French do not have a W in their alphabet, hence, the spelling Steuart. One this in h istory is very clear. The House of Stewart, or Stuart, provided a race of Scottish Kings, who occupied the throne of Scotland for three hundred years, as well as the throne of England for more than a hundred years. The present dynasties of Great Britain and Ireland are descendants of those Kings. The first of such Kings was Robert Stewart, then afterward, Robert Stewart II (rin 18892), son of Walter Stewart, sixth hereditary Lord High Steward of Scotland. Very early historians, supported by charters and documents, have accurately traced the descendancy of Walter, the third Steward, to Walter, the first Steward, under King David I, who reigned from 1124 to 1153. In summary, we know Walter, the first Steward, served under King David I, between 1124 and 1153. Walter, the third Steward, adopted the name Stewart as a last name for the first time. The son of Walter, the sixth Steward, became King Robert II in 1371 by a marriage connection of Walter to the daughter of King Robert Bruce. To the best of our abilities, this is the beginning of the Stuart Family.

Created Justiciar of Scotland by King Alexander II in addition to his hereditary office of High Steward. Walter was the first to adopt the title 'Senescallus' or 'Stewart' and it is from this period that the name was assumed in common for the whole family. Following the death of the first wife of Alexander II, he was sent as an ambassador to France to negotiate a second marriage for the king with Mary, daughter of Ingerlam, Count de Courcy. He succeeded in the negotiation, and attended the lady in her voyage to Scotland.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Walter, Steward of Dundonald (died 1246) was 3rd hereditary High Steward of Scotland and Justiciar of Scotia.
He was the eldest son of Alan fitz Walter, 2nd High Steward of Scotland by his second wife Alesta, daughter of Morggán, Earl of Mar. He was the first to use Steward as a surname, and was designated "of Dundonald".
He witnessed a charter by King Alexander II, under the designation of "Walterus filius Alani, Senescallus, Justiciar Scotiae" and it may be that seal which Nisbet described pertaining to Walter Hereditary High Steward of Scotland. Around the seal it states "Sigill. Walteri filii Allani".
Walter married Bethóc, daughter of Gille Críst, Earl of Angus and his wife Marjorie, said to be a daughter of Henry of Scotland, 3rd Earl of Huntingdon. They were parents of:
Alexander Stewart, 4th High Steward of Scotland, sometime Regent of Scotland.
Sir Robert, of Tarbolten and Crookston, and Lord of Darnley.[6]
John, killed at Damietta in 1249, Egypt during the Seventh Crusade.
Walter Balloch ("the Freckled"), who married Mary de Menteith and became Earl of Menteith.
William
Beatrix, married Maol Domhnaich, Earl of Lennox.
Christian
Eupheme, married Patrick, 6th Earl of Dunbar, who also fell at Damietta.
Margaret, married her cousin Niall, Earl of Carrick.
Sybella, married Colin Fitzgerald, 1st Lord of Kintail.
http://www.vandeleurcreagh.org/b464.htm#P21681
Walter Stewart, Earl of Menteith also went by the nick-name of Walter 'Ballach' (or in English, Walter 'the Freckled').
http://thepeerage.com/p511.htm#i5109
ALTER STEWART, a son of the High Steward of Scotland, who obtained the title. The new Earl of Menteith, surnamed Bailloch, or ‘the Freckled,’ was a famous warrior. He joined the disastrous expedition under St. Louis of France, called the Third Crusade, for the recovery of the Holy Sepulchre, and fought with great distinction at the battle of Largs in 1263, at which his elder brother defeated the Norwegians under King Haco. He took a prominent part in the proceedings connected with the contest for the Scottish crown after the death of the ‘Maiden of Norway,’ and was one of the commissioners nominated by Robert Bruce in his competition with John Baliol. The Earl left two sons, who dropped their paternal surname of Stewart, and assumed that of Menteith.
http://www.electricscotland.com/WEBCLANS/families/menteith.htm
Walter Bailloch or Walter Bailloch Stewart (1225 x 1230 – 1293 x 1294), was third son of Walter Stewart, 3rd High Steward of Scotland, and Earl of Menteith jure uxoris. His wife was Mary I, Countess of Menteith. Characteristically of the Stewart family by the thirteenth century, he was distinguished by the sobriquet Bailloch or Balloch, a Gaelic nickname roughly translated as "the freckled".
He is said to have gone to Egypt under Louis IX of France, but there is no certain evidence of this. After the death of King Alexander II of Scotland he favoured the Durward faction, and by a stratagem in 1255 secured the persons of the young King and Queen, but he was not at this time admitted to a share in the government. It was about 1260, when the Countess Isabella and her husband were forced to renounce the earldom, that the King and barons of Scotland declared the lands and title to belong to the wife of William Stewart, and he was invested therein. He was certainly using the title "comes" (earl or mormaer) before 17 April 1261, when he was witness to a grant to the Paisley Abbey.
In the following year Dughall MacSuibhne granted to the Earl the lands of Skipnish, Killislate, and others, being that part of Kintyre called South Knapdale and the parish of Kilcalmonell. Following on this, the Earl granted the church of Kilcalmonell to the monks of Paisley. He also made grants to Kilwinning Abbey of churches in Knapdale, which show that he had possession of North Knapdale also. About 1263 the Earl was Sheriff of Ayr, and aided in making preparations to repel the expected invasion of King Haakon IV of Norway. He is said to have taken part in the battle of Largs. The Earl was Sheriff of Dumbarton in 1271. On 25 July 1281 he was one of the witnesses to and guarantors of the marriage contract of the Princess Margaret with Eiri
