User-submitted Reference

Ó Muineóg is not so clear :

In the moderne Irish dictionary you find :

1 muin 'top, back' : this can be a toponym. => moing 'mane'. Gaulish Monica 'collar'. Compare with Latin Collum 'neck' and Collis 'hill'. Compare with English Ridge 'hill, back'.

2 múin 'teach'. I presume from Latin Monere, Monitor.

3 muine 'thicket'.

4 muinín 'trust'.

5 manach 'monk'.
