Explanatory note
- Gaeilge
the town of the well?
Bhí an t-ainmfhocal tiobra (= tobar) “well, spring” baininscneach sa Sean-Ghaeilge (féach www.dil.ie s.v. tipra). Féach na foirmeacha béarlaithe 1586 ‘Ballintubbred’, 1666 ‘Ballintobuire’, 1715 ‘Ballintubrude’, 1840 ‘Ballantubrid’ os coinne 1591 ‘Ballynetubberte’, 1655 ‘Ballynatubruide’, srl. faoi bf Baile na Tiobraide (#31887) i Luimneach (www.logainm.ie, Logainmneacha na hÉireann I 46). Measaimid gur dóichí gur na tiobraide atá san ainm seo idir chamáin ó cheart freisin. Féach an sampla eile i mBaile Adaim (#28120).
