Seumas (Scottish Gaelic pronunciation: [ˈʃeːməs]) is a masculine given name in Scottish Gaelic and Scots,[1] equivalent to the English James.
[2] The vocative case of the Scottish Gaelic Seumas is Sheumais, which has given form to the Anglicised form of this name, Hamish.
[3] In Irish, Seumas is the older form of the modern Séamas.
Another earlier form of Séamas is Séamus, which is partially Anglicised as Seamus.
