The difference is that the Picts were a people who merged with the Scots and Gaels, but the Celts were not a people, more a collection of semi-mythical primitive tribes somewhere in the Northern Spanish area where the Basques are today.Some say they came from Morocco first then migrated.

Answer Modern thinking is that Picts were in fact from Norway - which would make them Germanic of origin - not the kind of dark skinned Berber Celt that the Basques etc are. Why the 'Scots' are often blond haired.
