Nóta mínithe
- English
This English place-name refers to the landing point for ferryboats crossing the River Slaney from Wexford Town (see Rowe & Wilson, 1996 pp.32–4).
Historical forms such as ‘fferrybanke’ (3) are unambiguous and self-explanatory. This does not mean, however, that the spellings in -back(e) (3a, 4b, 6) need necessarily be considered an orthographical error. They may represent a dialect use of back, the name given in Bristol to a ‘strip of wharfage, from a quarter to half a mile in length’ (see EDD 2 back). Bristol borders the county of Somerset, where the local speech shared a number of similarities with Yola, the English dialect of South Wexford (cf. Ó Muirithe, 1977 pp.41, 48–9; Dolan & Ó Muirithe, 1998, p.34). [Given that this place-name can be readily derived from English, there is no reason to infer earlier Norse origin.]
The Irish form of the name is a translation.
