Ní fios cé acu an ainm pearsanta nó gaelú ar an sloinne Arthur(s) is bun leis an dtarna heilimint. Tá an chuma ar iontrálacha áirithe thuas go mb’fhéidir go mb’é Baile an Artúraigh ba chirte a léamh leo (mar atá, Inq. I 125 agus Inq. I 134) agus go mb’fhuaim thréshiollach ba cheart a léamh le Arthore, -arthure na bhfoirmeacha eile dá réir (in ionad na fuaime déshiollaí ba thúisce a shamhlófaí leo ar an gcéad fhéachaint). Is spéisiúil an comhtharlú é go luaitear Cluain mac Carthainn asa fuilit Hi Artuir faoi Tuath O Cuscraidh (CrC 174.6) agus in ainneoin nach maireann Cluain mac Carthainn anois, tagtar ar Liathmuine (I 137.5), ar Carrac in Furnaidhi (I 195.11), ar Baili Brigi Gobhunn (I 38.1) is ar Cill tSeanaigh (I 38.23) faoin dtuath chéanna arbh iad Hi Artuir tuisigh na tuaithi sin (CrC 174.6) agus is i ngiorracht bheagán mílte slí ó na háiteanna seo atá Ballyarthur.
