You might find this interesting? Sir William de Cairlyle obtained in marriage the lady Margaret Bruce, one of the daughters of Robert earl of Carrick, and sister of King Robert the Bruce, as appears by a charter of that monarch to them of the lands of Crumanston, in which she is designated “our dearest sister.”
Their son, William Carlyle, obtained a charter from Robert the First, under the name of William Karlo, the king’s sister’s son, of the lands of Culyn, now Collin, in the county of Dumfries. He also possessed the lands of Roucan in the vicinity. There are now two villages bearing these names in the immediate neighbourhood of Dumfries.

Yes, William de Carlyle did marry Margaret "Marjorie" Bruce, named after her mother Marjorie Carrick, Countess of Carrick, in her own right.
She was my 19th Great-Grandaunt (several times over). LOL.
Thanks for sharing.
