Quick look on Ancestry gives the impression that it is Scottish.

Have you traced back from yourself, father, mother with maiden name;  grandfathers, grandmothers with maiden names, and so on?

1901 census (first couple of pages) shows this name Northumberland, Durham mainly, if you're looking in England.  Fits in with the Scottish link I suppose  ;)
