Ling. Notes: | McManus/1991, 112: `In early Irish nomenclature the custom of the father and son having the same name was avoided ... but an element in the father's name might be repeated in that of his son and this is found quite often in the genealogies. ... Examples in the inscriptions are: ... CONUNETT MOQI (leg. MA-?) CONURI'. Also see McManus/1991, 102, 108, 118, 120. |
Palaeography: | Macalister/1945, 168: `the side-scores are reversed, S being written for C and so throughout: MOQI is, of course, for mocui, a camouflage of mucoi'. |
