McVie

McVie is a surname of Scottish origin. It is an Anglicized form of a Gaelic personal name and is best known internationally for its association with Fleetwood Mac, the British-American rock band formed in the 1960s.

Christine McVie (born Christine Perfect; 1943–2022) was an English singer, keyboardist, and songwriter who joined Fleetwood Mac in the early 1970s and became one of its principal vocalists and contributors. She wrote and performed many of the band’s well-known songs, including Don’t Stop and You Make Loving Fun, and helped shape the group’s sound during its most commercially successful period.

John McVie (born 1945) is an English bassist and a founding member of Fleetwood Mac. He formed the band’s rhythm section with Mick Fleetwood and remained a constant presence through its blues-rock beginnings and its later transition to a mainstream pop-rock powerhouse.

The surname McVie is relatively uncommon outside Scotland, but it is widely recognized in connection with Fleetwood Mac due to the fame of Christine and John. The name remains a marker of Scottish heritage for many who bear or encounter it.
