In the second of our look at recurring words in Irish placenames, Darach, Gearóidín and Peadar consider islands. Why do some inland locations have island-based names? Why are there three places in Ireland called Lady's Island, each with a different name in Irish?
What about the island that Charles J Haughey bought in the Gaeltacht - does anyone know how that got its name?
For some reason, University Challenge enters the discussion.
