[Opinions] Re: Favorite Scottish Names?
in reply to a message by Siân
Cairbre / Carbrey is wonderful. My grandfather was born in a small town called Rosscarbery. I've always thought of it as a GP mn. But now perhaps there's more validity to it since it's built on a traditional fn. There are small islands nearby called "Carbery's Hundred Isles." I never thought about Carbery (Carbrey) being a fn before. I always assumed it was a surname.Cairbre / Carbrey has such a lovely sound to it. Thanks for pointing it out!
