Baile Órthaí/Oristown

Gaeilge

the town of Órthaí
Órthaí — sloinne (< Overy Béarla)
Uaireanta níl dóthain fianaise ann chun seanainm a cheangal le hainmneacha an lae inniu. D’áitigh Seán Ó Donnabháin i gceann de na litreacha a scríobh sé nuair a bhí sé ag obair thar ceann na Suirbhéireachta Ordanáis sa Mhí gurbh ionann Oristown agus Ráth Airthir, ionad cónaithe ríthe Bhreá (féach an nóta faoi Sliabh Breá), Síol nAedha Sláine, tráth. Is cosúil nach bhfuil aon ghaol idir Ráth Airthir agus Oristown, áfach. Seo cuid d’fhianaise stairiúil an logainm dheireanaigh: ‘Overston’, ‘Overeston’, ‘Oreston’ (1540), ‘Orereeston’, ‘Overeeston’ (1570-1), ‘Oriston’ (1619), Baile Orthaid Ainmleabhar, scríofa le peann luaidhe (1836); Bail’ Óirthear (:ghlórthaibh:glóire) an leagan Gaeilge atá le fáil i ndán le hUilliam Ó Maoil Chiaráin (1700c–1766) in Amhráin na Midhe. Dealraíonn sé gur sloinne de bhunús Sasanach, Overy, atá san ainm Oristown. In aiste dar teideal ‘The local context of Óenach Tailten’ a foilsíodh in Ríocht na Midhe (2000), phléigh Cathy Swift na tuairimí atá nochtaithe ag údair éagsúla faoi cheartláthair Ráth Airthir
