Explanatory note

Gaeilge

Ní léir brí manainn (tabh./log. < mana). Tá ardán i lár an bhaile fearainn seo, rud a thug ar Ó Donnabháin an t-ainm a mhíniú mar ‘a little hill’. ‘Manainn Árd, high hillock’ atá aige faoi bf Manainn Ard (#19764) (Ga 104) chomh maith — talamh leibhéalta atá ansiúd ach tá cnoc beag bídeach sa bhaile fearainn teorantach bf Manainn (#19763) (Ga 104). ‘Manainn, from Manannan Mac Lir’ atá aige faoi bf Manainn (#36470) (ME 81, 92) atá suite idir leirg cnoic agus loch (féach leis Mac Gabhann, Logainmneacha Mhaigh Eo s.n. Mannin).

D’fhéadfadh sé gurb é an focal céanna é seo is atá in ainm an oileáin Manainn ó cheart.
