An Seabhac: Cnoc a’Mhionnáin. Is minic gur ‘beannán’ (a peak) a bhíonn san ‘vina:n’ san i logainmneacha. Tugadh ar charraig bhioraigh nó sceillig ghéir é. An-mhinic ámh, is ‘Mionnán’ a deirtear leis toisc urdhúbh. Tá ‘an Mionnán’ ar roinnt carraigeacha beannacha i gCorca Dhuibhne ach is cinnte gur ó ‘Beannán’ a tháinig an bunainm agus gur ‘m’ an ‘urdhubh’ atá ann – ‘ar a mbeannán’. Tá ‘Mionnán na Gráige’ ar Charraig Mhóir idir Dún Caoin agus Dún Úrlann i gCorca Dhuibhne.
