The City of Glasgow Regiment was part of the name of the Highland Light Infantry after 1923.

The Highland Light Infantry (City of Glasgow Regiment)

The Glasgow Highlanders were a Territorial Army unit which was part of Highland Light Infantry. So I think I'm right in saying that in the Second World War they were officially known as

The Glasgow Highlanders, The Highland Light Infantry (City of Glasgow Regiment)

Cheers
