the little pasture
Is é 1666 ‘[Clonine or Cloneen alias] Closeland’ ASE 84 an chéad tagairt dá bhfuil againn don ainm Béarla. Cf. sampla eile de cluain > close “enclosure” in 1666 ‘Clonehome alias Clonequin, alias Queen’s-Close’ ibid. Tá roinnt leathaistriúcháin agus ainmneacha Béarla nuachumtha san fhoinse céanna, cuid acu níos buaine ná a chéile.
Is dócha gurb ionann é seo agus 1518 ‘Clonyn Call 20 acres’ Kildare Rental (cuid de ‘Gaydonsland’: féach bf Baile Aidín (#28479)), 1575 ‘Clonechale, or Clonyncahill’ JKAS, 1617 ‘Clonekally, half a plowland; occupier, Teige O’Beaghan; lying from the said lands of Ballybrittas north, and meareth upon the land of Pollagh [.i. idir seo agus oirthuaisceart bf Rathmiles] west’ < Cluainín (Uí) Chathail (?) “the little pasture of Cathal (ainm pearsanta)/Ó Cathail (sloinne)”.
