Help[Opinions] Re: I've created some new Scots Gaelic names.
in reply to a message by gaelruadh19
A comment on Eachaoibhne: (EKH-weev-nya) f. “Horse joy/ Horse gaiety” (each: horse; aoibhneas: joy) it's just about equivalent to Rohirric “Éowyn” (éo: horse; wyn: joy)
I'm pleased to see that some people have taken an interest in my created names... I apologize to any Gaelic speakers who are more fluent than I am.
