Excerpt from The Celtic Monthly, Vol. 12: A Magazine for Highlanders
Johnston's excellent work Place Names in Scotland, and have gathered all that he has to say on our local place names.
As only a very small number are explained by him, Charles Coutts' efforts to preserve upwards of sixty old meanings are not altogether worthless. Moreover in his Preface Mr. Johnston urges that if it is highly desirable to ascertain the old spelling of a name, it is almost equally desirable that we should know its old native pronunciation. Wherever you can get a native Gael to pronounce a name, listen carefully, such a proceeding will save many a time from writing or talking nonsense.
