Does anyone have an etymology for the name Eithne?
Does anyone have O Corràin and Maguire handy? |

Tá sé agam, ach níl aon sanas tugtha. Liosta fada d'Eithneacha cáiliúla atá ann, sin uile.
Ach is ionann eithne agus nucleus nó croí cnó. |

Ta ciall sa mhéid thuas - bhí mé mór le Eithne amháin, tráth den saoil, agus bhí a "cnónnachas" sofeicthe! |

Chreid Thurneysen go raibh an t-ainm seo le feiceáil freisin in ainm na habhann "Inny". Abhainn ha hUíne atá uirthi anois i nGaeilge, ach deir Bunachair Logainmneacha na hÉireann gur "ainm neamhdheimhnithe" é seo. I bhfocail eile, is féidir nach bhfuil ceachtar acu, Thurneysen ná an t-ainm Gaeilge, le trust.

Suimiúil! Ní raibh a fhios agam go raibh Inny sa Mhí freisin. An ceart ag Thurneysen de réir dealraimh mar sin. Mar atá a fhios agat, is minic a bhíonn ainmneacha an-ársa ar aibhneacha in Éirinn agus ar fud na hEorpa.

Is cáiliúla an Eithne ná an Uíne, go bhfios dom. Sílim go bhfuil scéal ann faoin Eithne, is ceann de trí abhann atá inti. An Brosna agus an tSuca na cinn eile, sílim.
Is craobh-abhainn de chuid na Sionainne iad. |
