Machaire - Ow ... Machaire Eabha
Machaire-Ow by the English speaking people, and Machaire Eabha by the Irish. The popular pronunciation of the latter part of this name could not be correctly represented by any other letters than Eabha. It (pronunciation) is so distinct that it did not undergo the least corruption, or suffer the least change calculated to cause a deviation from the original orthography. 101
