Rub it for luck

The name Ballie come from the Norman name Balliol. Due to the unpopularity of the name Balliol after the ascension of Robert the Bruce to the Scottish crown, many changed it to Ballie. At the start of the 14th century, William de Baliol acquired the property of Lamington in Lanarkshire. His son, Sir William Baillie, was granted a charter confirming the ownership in 1358.

The Bailles were staunch Protestant supporters of the Covananters and a Baillie was hung for treason in 1684.
