Explanatory note

Gaeilge

the cross of Mac Caoláin
Mac Caoláin — sloinne?

Is cosúil gur sloinne seachas ainm athartha atá i Mac Caoláin sa chás seo — ní raibh an t-ainm pearsanta Caolán bisiúil sa Nua-Ghaeilge sa cheantar seo. Cf. ‘Lawrence Keelan’ (1825) 5km ó bhaile. Is léir gur mhic atá le sonrú san fhianaise ina iomláine; d’fhéadfadh sé gur malairt foirme é Mac Caoláin de Ó Caoláin. Cf. bf Baile Mhic Caoláin (CD); bf Coill Uí Chaoláin (Mí).
