Maybe because the order came from there or because it was the name of the purchaser. There was a family of Durhams associated with the Royal Court in Edinburgh prior to the Union of the Crowns. Wilson was also a collector of tartans, receiving samples from his agents in the Highlands and from purchase orders from around the world. See 'Denholme' and 'Urquhart'.
